  • Lions' Avonte Maddox: Links up with Detroit

    Maddox signed a one-year contract with the Lions on Friday, Glenn Erby of USA Today reports. Maddox, who started 2024 as a starter at slot cornerback for Philadelphia but was replaced by Cooper DeJean during the team's bye, now links up with another NFC contender. He looks primed for a key depth role behind Brian Branch in Detroit.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Completes healthy 2024 campaign

    Maddox finished the 2024 season with 20 total tackles (nine solo) while also adding five passes defensed over 17 regular-season games. Maddox was able to appear in all 17 of the Eagles' regular-season games in 2024 after being limited to just 13 contests over 2022 and 2023 combined. The cornerback will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent and could head elsewhere after spending the first seven seasons of his NFL career in Philadelphia.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: May move positions

    Maddox has been getting reps at safety during practice this week, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. Maddox is likely to lose his role as the team's slot corner to the Eagles' first-round selection in the 2024 Draft, Quinyon Mitchell. The rookie has been getting first-team reps at slot corner, leaving the veteran Maddox without a clear role in the secondary as things currently stand.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Now dealing with elbow issue

    Maddox was estimated as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice walk-through due to an elbow injury. Maddox returned from a 13-game stint on injured reserve Sunday to log 38 percent of Philadelphia's defensive snaps in a loss to Arizona. His time on IR was due to a torn pectoral muscle, but he's now apparently dealing with an elbow issue. Maddox's practice participation during the remainder of the week should provide insight into his chances of playing Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Giants.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Activated off IR ahead of Week 17

    The Eagles activated Maddox (pectoral) off injured reserve Saturday. Maddox missed 13 games after tearing his pectoral muscle in Week 2 against Minnesota. The veteran cornerback logged a trio of limited practices this week and didn't have an injury designation heading into the weekend, so his activation off IR was fully expected. Maddox's return comes at an opportune time for the Eagles, as Darius Slay will miss his third straight game due to a knee injury.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Clear for Sunday

    Maddox (pectoral) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Maddox has missed the Eagles' last 13 games with this pectoral issue, and despite not having an injury designation in Week 17, he must be activated to the team's active roster in order to suit up Sunday. The addition of Maddox would be huge for a Philadelphia secondary that's already without Darius Slay (knee) in Week 17.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: May be done for season

    Maddox will have surgery this week to repair a torn pectoral muscle suffered in Thursday's win over the Vikings and will be out indefinitely, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Maddox suffered the injury in the first half of the game and was unable to return. Although a torn pectoral was deemed likely, further opinions along with an MRI confirmed the diagnosis and best course of recovery. The news is certainly a blow to the Eagles secondary, which currently is also without James Bradberry (concussion) and which sees Reed Blankenship (ribs) at less than full health as well. Maddox will now likely head to IR, while more news on his recovery time should come sometime after the surgery is performed.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: May have pec tear

    Maddox may have suffered a torn pectoral in Thursday's win over Minnesota, John Clark of NBC Sports reports. Maddox is one of the better nickelbacks in the league, and the Eagles struggled in coverage after losing him to a shoulder/chest injury Thursday night. They already were playing without CB James Bradberry (concussion), though he could be back as soon as Week 3. If the torn pectoral is confirmed Maddox will miss multiple games and possibly even the rest of the season.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Won't return Thursday

    Maddox (shoulder) has been ruled out of Thursday's game against Minnesota, Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com reports. Maddox hurt his left shoulder in the first half and has now been ruled out from returning. Before his departure, he tallied two tackles (one solo). Philadelphia doesn't play again until Monday, Sept. 25, so Maddox will have more time than usual to try to recover in order to be able to play in Week 3.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Participating in 7-on-7 drills

    Maddox (toe) was spotted working with the first-team defense at Thursday's practice, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. Maddox had been limited early on in training camp with a toe injury but has since moved past the issue. The 27-year-old battled a variety of injuries last season and appeared in only nine games, recording 43 tackles, three pass breakups and one interception. Expect the veteran to be on the field a lot as the team's third cornerback behind Darius Slay and James Bradberry in 2023.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Appears ready for Super Bowl

    Maddox (toe) doesn't have a designation after the first week of preparation ahead of Super Bowl LVII against the Chiefs on Sunday, Feb. 12. After sustaining a toe injury Week 16, Maddox missed the Eagles' ensuing three games before returning for this past Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the 49ers. He since has been listed on Philadelphia practice reports with toe and rest, so despite taking in Friday's session in a walking boot -- per Zach Berman of The Athletic -- Maddox doesn't appear to be in danger of sitting out the Super Bowl considering his lack of designation more than a week ahead of the contest.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Remains iffy for Sunday

    Maddox (toe) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. Maddox is on the verge of missing a fourth consecutive matchup this weekend due to a toe injury, as the fifth-year cornerback said Thursday that he's still taking it day-by-day, per Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia. Maddox also practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday, so Friday's practice/injury report should ultimately provide further clarification regarding the 26-year-old's availability for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the 49ers.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Returns to practice Wednesday

    Maddox (toe) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice. Maddox was back on the practice field for the first time since suffering the toe injury against Dallas on Dec. 24. Because he's been sidelined for just over a month, Maddox will likely have to log at least one full practice by Friday if he wants to avoid carrying an injury designation into Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the 49ers.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Could practice again this week

    Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said Monday he's "hopeful" that Maddox (toe) will return to practice Wednesday, Reuben Frank of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. Maddox has not practiced or played since he sustained a toe injury in the Week 16 loss to Dallas. While Sirianni did express optimism, he also clarified that the team still needs to see the cornerback perform "the football movements that he has to go out there and do," before deciding if he's fit to play again. The 26-year-old also was seen with a walking boot in the locker room following Saturday's divisional-round win over the Giants, per Frank. Therefore, it could be more likely that Maddox will be ready to return by the Super Bowl if Philadelphia advances with a win during Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the 49ers.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Out indefinitely with toe injury

    Maddox suffered a significant toe injury in Saturday's loss to the Cowboys and is now expected to remain out indefinitely, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Maddox is now in line to miss the rest of the regular season after sustaining what has since been revealed as a significant toe injury this past weekend in Dallas. While C.J. Gardner-Johnson (abdomen) is now eligible to come off injured reserve and possibly work in the slot in place of Maddox, the Eagles also have James Bradberry, Darius Slay and Josiah Scott to handle the team's cornerback duties for the time being.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Requires walking boot

    Maddox (toe) was seen wearing a walking boot on his left foot after Saturday's 40-34 defeat in Dallas, Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Maddox was forced out of Week 16 action after his third-quarter sack of Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott. If Maddox is forced to miss any time, Josiah Scott would be the top candidate to earn extra snaps at cornerback for the Eagles.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Hurts toe Saturday

    Maddox (toe) won't return to Saturday's game against the Cowboys. Prior to his exit from the contest, Maddox recorded three tackles and a sack. In his absence, Josiah Scott figures to log added cornerback reps for the Eagles.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: IR-bound with hamstring injury

    Philadelphia placed Maddox (hamstring) on its injured reserve list Monday. Maddox will be forced to miss at least the Eagles' next four games as he recovers from a hamstring injury he seems to have sustained in Week 9 at Houston. Josiah Scott, a 2020 fourth-round pick, will likely operate as Philadelphia's primary slot corner until Maddox is healthy enough to play again.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Status uncertain for Week 5

    Maddox (ankle) has an uncertain status for Sunday's game against Arizona, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Maddox didn't play in the Eagles' Week 4 win over the Jaguars due to an ankle sprain, and he was seen in a walking boot after the game. However, even if he's unable to suit up against the Cardinals, the cornerback isn't believed to be dealing with a long-term injury.

  • Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Limited in Wednesday's walkthrough

    Maddox (back) was limited during Wednesday's walkthrough. Maddox recorded eight tackles and one interception across 48 defensive snaps during Monday's win over the Vikings, but he presumably picked up a back issue as well. If he doesn't get upgraded to a full participant Thursday or Friday, he may be in danger of missing his first contest of the season.
