Eagles Injury Update: Everyone practices except Kiko Alonso

Updated: 3:56 p.m.

Linebacker Mychal Kendricks, who missed last week’s game against the Jets with a hamstring injury, was back at Eagles practice Thursday after participating in all of practice Wednesday.

Head coach Chip Kelly said the team is monitoring Kendricks to make sure he doesn’t get “fatigue” in his leg but said he didn’t miss any reps on Wednesday. That augurs well for his chances to return to action against Washington on Sunday.

Everybody on the roster other than Kiko Alonso participated to some extent in Thursday's practice at the NovaCare Complex.

That includes wide receiver Riley Cooper (knee) and safety Chris Maragos (quadriceps), who both sat out practice on Wednesday. Cooper practiced fully, while Maragos was limited.

Also present on the field with their helmets were defensive end Taylor Hart (shoulder - limited), wide receiver Josh Huff (hamstring - full), running back DeMarco Murray (hamstring - full), left tackle Jason Peters (quadricep - limited) and defensive end Cedric Thornton (hand - limited).

Tight end Trey Burton (shoulder - full), who was a full participant on Wednesday, was also back at work for a second day.

Kelly refused to comment about Alonso, who underwent arthroscopic surgery on his knee Wednesday and is expected to return to action fairly soon.

He said only that Alonso will be back at the NovaCare Complex on Friday. 

The Eagles are scheduled to face the Redskins at 1 p.m. Sunday at FedEx Field in Landover, Maryland.
