Eagles place Derek Barnett and 3 others on COVID list, leaving them thin at defensive end

The Philadelphia Eagles placed starting defensive end Derek Barnett, rotational defensive end Tarron Jackson, and special teams contributor/backup defensive back Andre Chachere on the reserve/COVID-19 list, according to an official announcement from the team. The Eagles also placed Noah Togiai on the practice squad COVID-19 list.

These developments leave the Birds pretty thin at defensive end. Josh Sweat is currently the only player at his position on the active roster. Veteran edge rusher Ryan Kerrigan previously went on the COVID list last week.

The Eagles do have Cameron Malveaux, who was elevated from the practice squad for Sunday’s game against the New York Giants, on the practice squad.
