Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley returned to full team practice on Friday, advancing from limited participation following a left shoulder stinger sustained during the team's Week 2 victory over the Tennessee Titans. Barkley stated that he fully expects to be available for Monday night's upcoming game against the Chicago Bears. Meanwhile, wide receiver Hollywood Brown was newly added to the injury report due to an ankle injury and did not participate in Friday's session. Tight end Dallas Goedert also remained sidelined because of a knee injury. Several other key players were listed as limited participants during practice, including wide receiver DeVonta Smith dealing with a hamstring concern. Conversely, defensive tackle Jalen Carter and safety Andrew Mukuba participated fully in the team's final preparation session ahead of the scheduled matchup.
