The Philadelphia Eagles held a walkthrough on Monday and Tuesday in preparation for their crucial Week 11 matchup against the Washington Commanders. Although the team has only reported estimates for injuries this week, it is still noteworthy that standout wide receiver DeVonta Smith has not yet been estimated as a full participant.

Smith was listed as a DNP on the Eagles' injury report on Monday due to a hamstring issue. However, on Tuesday, he progressed to limited practice participation, suggesting that if he can increase his practice capacity on Wednesday, he will likely not carry any injury designation into Thursday night's game.

The Eagles are on a short week as they faced the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. For this reason, the team may be trying to protect some of its most important players from injury.

Before their 34-6 victory in Week 10, Smith was also part of the injury report. However, he was available and suited up against the Cowboys.

Smith's estimated practice designations for this week could be because of the team's desire to manage his workload ahead of the matchup versus the Commanders. There have been no reported injury setbacks for him since Sunday's game.

When the Eagles face the Commanders, they will need every bit of help they can get to stretch their winning streak to six games. Whoever wins on Thursday will lead the NFC East standings heading into Week 12.

DeVonta Smith injury update: What happened to the Eagles' WR?

DeVonta Smith did not participate in the Philadelphia Eagles’ first practice last Wednesday before their Week 10 game. He did not receive an injury designation for the game though, as he improved from being a limited participant on Thursday to fully practicing on Friday.

Smith took part in 72% of the Eagles' offensive snaps against the Cowboys, hauling in two passes for 14 yards and zero touchdowns.

DeVonta Smith has been a key piece of the Eagles' passing offense this year. As his team wraps up their preparations for their matchup with the Commanders on Wednesday, it is important to keep an eye on his status.
