DeSean Jackson (shoulder) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, after which coach Jay Gruden expressed his hope that the wideout practices Friday, the Washington Post reports. Nevertheless, Jackson could be a game-time decision.

Analysis:

Friday's injury report will ultimately estimate the likelihood that Jackson takes the field Sunday at Philadelphia. However, his sparse workload Thursday -- half-speed routes and catching passes -- didn't earn him even a limited designation, leaving his Week 3 availability up in the air. If he plays, Gruden suggested that Jackson's snap count could be capped, which would afford Andre Roberts and Ryan Grant additional looks.
