This will be Maddox’s second missed game after tweaking an ankle injury in practice leading into the Eagles’ win against the Jacksonville Jaguars last week. Although the defensive back missed practice all week, he was jogging on a side field during Thursday’s session.
“I feel like I played pretty well,” Scott said. “The things they asked me, I was able to do them and execute for the most part. I feel like I did pretty good.”The Eagles had options for replacing Maddox in the slot. They could have moved Darius Slay inside or moved safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson down to the position he played during his first three years in the league.
“Josiah does a good job for us,” he said Tuesday. “That’s a tough spot, like I’ve talked about with you guys, and he handles it well. He’s got the skill set that you’re looking for as a nickel. I thought he played well. The other thing that goes into that, you don’t want a trickle-down effect as far as, ‘Hey, this guy has got to go here; this guy has got to go here.’ I just thought where we are at as a unit that was the best way to go, and that’s how we’ll continue to proceed.
Driscoll played well enough for the Eagles’ offensive line to dominate against the Jaguars; the Eagles rushed for 210 yards and Jalen Hurts was sacked only twice.
