In the lead-up to the critical NFC Divisional Round playoff clash between the Philadelphia Eagles and Los Angeles Rams, both teams named their inactive players. The Eagles maintained their roster from last week's Wild Card win against the Green Bay Packers, with offensive linemen Nick Gates, Darian Kinnard, and Trevor Keegan among those sidelined. Quarterback Tanner McKee will act as the emergency option behind starters Jalen Hurts and Kenny Pickett. Philadelphia also elevated fullback Khari Blasingame and linebacker Nick Morrow from the practice squad.
The Rams' inactive list includes safety John Johnson III and offensive lineman Joe Noteboom, along with emergency quarterback Stetson Bennett. The outcome of this matchup holds significant implications, as the winner will advance to host the NFC Championship Game against the Washington Commanders, fresh off an impressive upset over the Detroit Lions.
