Philadelphia also didn't have defensive tackle Fletcher Cox, tight end Dallas Goedert, and running back Boston Scott as they remain on the COVID-19 list, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.
The 9-7 Eagles, who have already clinched a playoff spot, only had six starters active in Week 18.

Offense: WRs DeVonta Smith, Jalen Reagor and Quez Watkins, LT Jordan Mailata, and C Jason Kelce.
Defense: LB T.J. Edwards.
Minshew has already started one game this season. He replaced an injured Hurts in Week 13, helping Philly beat the New York Jets.
The 11-5 Cowboys have clinched the NFC East title but can still improve their playoff seeding in Week 18, though the Green Bay Packers have already locked up the conference's No. 1 seed.
