Thanks Billy1x for the info. I feel somewhat better now knowing we have at least 2 backs and Driver being OK to go.

I tought Jones would start opposite Driver since Jennings had a terrible training camp .

Not sure, he wasn't mentioned but John Kuhn is on his way and I expect both should be in camp tomorrow although I'm not sure if they are practicing tomorrow or not. Sounds like practices are going to be mostly closed to the media in preparation for next weeks game.

Just wasn't being thrown to, not having a terrible camp. He got more balls once he started complaining. Keep in mind that Jones so far has only played the flanker position and Driver plays the slot when Jones is in. I'm not sure the configuration if Jennings was hurt. Jones could takes Drivers position and Driver could move back to his old position (were Jennings is). OR they could just replace Jennings with Martin or Holiday.I expect we will see a lot of 3 WR sets this year and Jones will get his share of balls but thats speculation. Jones is to good to sit and the TEs aren't very strong.

Did I hear correctly that Noah Herron was put on IR today? OUCH!!!

Yep. He had surgery and was to be out till Oct 31 and since he was cleared to play in the pre-season he was not eligible for PUP.

Last I saw, the Eagles were 3-point favorites. I think they should be getting 6 even on the road so that could become a very popular bet for folks heading to Vegas next weekend.

Grant was on the field. Kuhn will practice Monday.Interesting take on Morency from McCarthy Practice Notesfishhard03 said:
====
McCarthy said if Morency is ready to play on Sunday, he'll be used sparingly, perhaps in Herron's role as a third-down back, until he's able to handle a larger workload. "When he does play I won't look for him to play every snap," McCarthy said. "We'll use him as a role player and be smart with him. I'm not concerned about (his conditioning)."
More on Driver (from same article)
=====
Driver's sprained foot, sustained in the third preseason game on Aug. 23, continues to improve and the Pro Bowl wide receiver appeared to run routes Sunday without difficulty. McCarthy said Driver would be limited in practice all week, and a decision on his playing status would be made at the end of the week. Driver said last week he fully expected to be able to play against Philadelphia, and McCarthy said Sunday he remains optimistic.
