Eagles News: Agholor, Alonso Expected To Play Sunday
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Philadelphia Eagles are getting healthy following their bye week, ahead of their Week 9 Sunday night divisional battle in Dallas.
The only player that was not supposed to practice on Tuesday, according to Chip Kelly, was left-tackle Jason Peters. But Peters, dealing with back spasms, was actually out on the practice field after all.
