Eagles Sitting Key Players In Week 18 Is Under "Consideration"

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said that sitting key players for the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the New York Giants is "a consideration" since the team is locked into the No. 5 seed for the NFC playoffs unless the Dallas Cowboys lose to the Washington Commanders.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton improved on his one-catch showing in Week 16 in Sunday's divisional loss to the New Orleans Saints, but not by much.

Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver Jonathan Mingo didn't make an impact at all in the team's 26-0 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday in Week 17, catching two of his three targets for a gain of zero yards.

A week after Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Chark Jr. had season-highs in catches (six) and receiving yards (98) while scoring two touchdowns in the Week 16 loss to the Green Bay Packers, he caught just one of his six targets for a gain of 18 yards in Sunday's 26-0 defeat to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
