Observations:
- Pacheco did not practice all week, and will miss his second straight game with a knee injury. Look for veteran Kareem Hunt to carry the load in Pacheco’s place, with rookie Brashard Smith mixed in a bit. Clyde Edwards-Helaire got the nod over Elijah Mitchell as the No. 3 RB against the Buffalo Bills, so it will be interesting to see if that is the case again this week.
- After being limited on Thursday, Worthy and Karlaftis practiced in full on Friday. Neither are carrying game designations heading into Sunday, meaning they are good to go.
- Coach Andy Reid still has not committed to Simmons starting on Sunday despite the fact that he practiced in full all week. If he doesn’t, Jaylon Moore will get the start.
