Wide receiver Elijah Cooks's bid to make the Eagles hit a bump on Thursday night. Cooks had to leave the team's preseason opener against the Bengals on a cart after being injured. Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports that Cooks suffered a shoulder injury and that he is set to have an MRI on Friday to determine the extent of the injury.

Suppose Elijah Cooks stays on his current path and doesn't make the 53-man roster. There needs to be an investigation. He seems destined to make the roster. No, that can't be guaranteed, but it needs to be stated anyway.

Former Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson and quarterback Michael Vick spoke with reporters after practice to preview the Delaware State and Norfolk State football game, which is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 30, at Lincoln Financial Field. This offseason, Jackson became the head coach at Delaware State and Vick became the HC at Norfolk State.
