The Eagles offense will not have one of its primary offensive weapons back in action when they play the Baltimore Ravens, one of the league’s best defensive teams, on Sunday.

The Eagles’ strategy against the Ravens secondary will be affected by wide receiver DeVonta Smith’s inactivity and lack of clearance to participate. Smith’s hamstring issue kept him out of last Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams. Smith was restricted for the next two days but did not take part in the walkthrough on Wednesday. Smith was uncertain if he would be on the field when asked if he will participate following Friday’s practice.

I’m not sure yet,” Smith remarked. I haven’t made up my mind yet.

Smith jogged around the field in yellow cleats for almost twenty minutes before to the inactive announcement. He walked around the stadium and started stretching before working out with wide receiver A.J. Brown. To save him for another week, though, the Eagles will hold him out.

Brown may see an increase in targets due to Smith’s absence against the Ravens’ 31st-ranked pass defense (277.7 yards per game). Smith and Brown have a lot of offensive options, particularly if the Ravens prioritize stopping running back Saquon Barkley.

Dallas Goedert, a tight end, would greatly benefit from the Eagles using more two-tight end sets. Goedert will gain if the Ravens position their safeties in the box or toward Brown, as they have given up the second-most receiving yards (790) and the most receptions to tight ends (72) in the league.
