Piles up 12 stops Edwards made 12 tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Giants.

Impact Edwards has suited up in two games since returning from a hamstring injury and has been outstanding, stacking up 15 tackles, a sack and a forced fumble. The coaching staff has made it clear that he's the starting middle linebacker moving forward, and he's proven to have a solid floor for IDP purposes.

Monster effort in return Edwards recorded 13 tackles -- two for a loss -- a sack and a forced fumble in Sunday's 23-6 win over the Cowboys.

Impact Edwards missed the previous three games with a hamstring injury, but he returned to action and started at middle linebacker. The Wisconsin product produced career-high in snap share (78 percent) and tackles, and he notched his first sack of the year. The 24-year-old has locked up the starting job moving forward, so he's worth keeping an eye on in IDP fantasy formats.

Joins active roster Edwards (hamstring) was activated from injured reserve Saturday.

Impact After missing three weeks due to a hamstring injury, the Eagles have announced the 24-year-old will play in Sunday's game against the Cowboys. Edwards should help improve what's been a mundane Eagles rush defense.

Expected to start Edwards (hamstring) will likely be activated for Sunday's game against Dallas, Mike Kaye of NJ.com reports.

Impact Edwards should slot into Nate Gerry's spot in the lineup now that the latter has been placed on IR with an ankle injury. The 24-year-old Edwards has missed the last three weeks due to his own injury, but he has been productive when on the field and is now looking at a significant uptick in playing time.

OCTOBER 30, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Designated to return Edwards (hamstring) returned to practice Monday, indicating the beginning of his 21-day window to be activated from IR.

Impact Philadelphia's run defense has underwhelmed this season, allowing 152 yards on the ground per game and 11 total touchdowns. Edwards is expected to return to a starting middle linebacker role as long as he makes it through the week without a setback, and he'll be counted on to help turn the defense around. Through the first four games of the year, Edwards played more than 50 percent of the defensive snaps just once but still managed to record 15 tackles and a forced fumble.

Expected to return Week 8 Edwards (hamstring) is on track to be activated from IR for the Week 8 matchup against Dallas, Mike Kaye of NJ.com reports.

Impact Edwards has spent the requisite amount of time on IR and is apparently back to full health. The second-year linebacker out of Wisconsin is expected to return to practice during the upcoming week and likely will be activated after a full week of practice without a setback. According to Kaye, the Eagles could make Edwards the starting middle linebacker, which would bump Duke Riley back to the outside and Alex Singleton to a reserve role. It remains to be seen if that's how the rotation actually shakes out, but it's worth keeping an eye on Edwards in IDP formats, as he posted 15 tackles and a forced fumble through the first four games despite playing less than 50 percent of the defensive snaps in three of those outings.

Shifts to IR Edwards (hamstring) will be out at least three weeks after being moved to injured reserve Thursday.

Impact Edwards started at middle linebacker for the Eagles Weeks 1 through 4, after starting just four times across 16 appearances for the team last year. He was forced to exit Sunday night's win against the 49ers, and Monday coach Doug Pederson hinted at the possibility that Edwards would miss multiple games. That suspicion has been confirmed with Philadelphia's latest move, thus elevating sixth-round rookie Shaun Bradley into a starting role.

Expected to miss time Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Edwards (hamstring) likely will miss games, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Impact Edwards exited this past Sunday's win over the 49ers with a hamstring injury and likely will sit out Week 5's matchup against the Steelers. The second-year pro has been a consistent contributor at middle linebacker this season, but Alex Singleton and Shaun Bradley will likely rotate in until Edwards returns.

Downgraded to out Edwards (hamstring) won't return to Sunday's game against San Francisco.

Impact With Edwards done for the night, Shaun Bradley should fill in at middle linebacker for the rest of the night. Safety Rudy Ford (hamstring) has also been ruled out.

Return questionable due to hammy Edwards (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Impact Edwards joins an extensive list of prominent injured Eagles on both sides of the ball. Shaun Bradley should take over at middle linebacker as long as Edwards is out.

OCTOBER 5, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Set for increased role? Edwards is eyeing an increased role on defense heading into Year 2, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.

Impact Edwards only handled 115 defensive snaps across 16 games as a rookie. Though he officially logged four starts, he never played more than 22 snaps on defense in a single contest. If the undrafted linebacker out of Wisconsin is able to take a step forward in his development heading into the second year of his career, the Eagles could see fit to rely on him to handle an expanded interior role. At the very least, Edwards' ability to contribute on both defense and special teams should secure him a spot on the 53-man roster.
