News

  • Contributes in win

    Cox played 68 percent of the defensive snaps, assisted on two tackles and recorded half of a sack in the Eagles' 25-11 win over the Buccaneers on Monday.

    Analysis: The 12th-year veteran and four-time All-Pro also helped the Eagles' defense limit the Bucs to 41 yards on the ground. Cox has six tackles, five quarterback hits and a fumble recovery through three games.

  • Back to practicing in full

    Cox (ribs) was a full participant at practice Friday.

    Analysis: After registering a limited practice Thursday, Cox was able to take an important step towards playing in Week 3 by participating fully in practice Friday. He's in line to resume his starting role on the defensive line Monday.

  • Limited with ribs issue

    Cox (ribs) was limited in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: The 32-year-old career-long Eagle hasn't missed any game action over the first two contests, logging four tackles, three QB hits and a fumble recovery across 68 percent of the defensive snaps up front. More clarity on what direction Cox is trending in for a Week 3 Monday night matchup against the Buccaneers should be gleaned from his level of participation Friday.

  • Active for Week 2

    Cox (ribs) is active for the Eagles' contest with the Vikings on Thursday Night Football.

    Analysis: Cox was limited this week at practice with a ribs injury he suffered in Week 1 versus the Patriots, but he'll be ready to go for Week 2. The defensive tackle recorded three tackles in the team's 25-20 victory over New England in the season opener.

  • Questionable for Thursday

    Cox (ribs) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Vikings.

    Analysis: Cox underwent an MRI after taking a hit to the ribs during Sunday's win at New England, but the results were negative, meaning he should be able to return to action soon. Whether that means he can play in Week 2 is still up in the air though, and if he can't, 2021 third-rounder Milton Williams seems like a good candidate to see an increased workload.

  • Should be OK

    Cox had an MRI and should be fine after taking a hit to the ribs in Sunday's win over the Patriots, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Analysis: Cox will have until Thursday to recover with the Eagles on a short week. Despite the expectation that he won't miss significant time, it's still not clear if he'll be able to take the field in Week 2 against the Vikings. If he is unable to play, Jalen Carter and Milton Williams will likely be called on to step up in his absence.

  • Dealing with apparent injury

    Cox exited the Eagles' locker room after Sunday's win over the Patriots to be evaluated for an apparent injury, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Cox dealt with knee soreness during the preseason, but it's unclear what injury he's dealing with following the Eagles' regular-season opener. Regardless of the nature of his injury, he'll have a brief window to recover before the team takes on Minnesota on Thursday.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Not on injury report

    Cox wasn't listed on the Eagles' injury report Wednesday.

    Analysis: Cox didn't play in the preseason while dealing with knee soreness. He signed a one-year, $10 million contract with the Eagles in March to remain with the team that drafted him in the first round of the 2012 draft. Entering his 12th season, Cox will once again anchor Philadelphia's defensive front alongside Brandon Graham, Josh Sweat and 2023 first-round pick Jalen Carter.

  • Not practicing Saturday

    Cox will miss practice Saturday due to knee soreness, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.

    Analysis: Cox didn't play in Thursday's preseason tie with Cleveland, though it's unclear if the knee issue was the reason. The veteran DT is slated for another season anchoring the Eagles' defensive line assuming the injury doesn't become a bigger concern.

  • Back in Philly on one-year deal

    Cox came to terms Wednesday with the Eagles on a one-year, $10 million contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Cox has spent his entire 11-year career with the Eagles and will be back for a 12th in 2023. Still effective at 32 years old, Cox registered seven sacks for the NFC champions last season while playing 65 percent of the defensive snaps.

  • Plays every game in 2022

    Cox played all 17 regular-season games in 2022 and posted 43 tackles, seven sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 690 defensive snaps.

    Analysis: The 11-year defensive tackle was a consistent part of the Eagles' elite pass rush and posted his most sacks since 2018, when he recorded a career-high 10.5. He added another sack of the Giants' Daniel Jones in the Eagles' divisional-round win, but he recorded just two total tackles in the team's other two playoff contests. Cox was playing on an expiring contract in 2022, but given he's never played for another team, a return to Philadelphia could be in the cards as he heads into his age-32…read more

  • Re-signs with Philly

    Cox signed a one-year, $14 million contract with the Eagles on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Cox was cut by the Eagles on Thursday, but it took only a couple days for him to work out a new deal for 2022. The 31-year-old hasn't displayed his former level of dominance in recent years and finished last season with 35 tackles (25 solo), 3.5 sacks and two forced fumbles in 16 games.

  • Released, but could re-sign

    Cox was released by the Eagles on Thursday but may end up re-signing with the team, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Eagles released Cox shortly before an $18 million guarantee was set to kick in at 4:00 p.m. ET on Thursday. They're hoping to bring him back at a lower price, but he also now has the option of talking with other teams. The 32-year-old defensive tackle was one of the top interior pass rushers in the league in the mid-to-late 2010s, and he remains a quality starter even after some decline in recent years (4.5 sacks per season 2019-21).

  • Returns from COVID list

    Cox was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.

    Analysis: Cox missed the Eagles' season finale against the Cowboys, but now that he's cleared protocols, he should suit up Sunday against the Buccaneers.

    Published: Mon, Jan 10 at 4:04pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Moves to COVID list

    Cox was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday after testing positive for the virus, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Cox recorded four tackles (two solo) and a half-sack during Sunday's win over Washington, and he's now on the COVID-19 list a day later. It'll be somewhat of a quick turnaround, but he still has a chance to clear the NFL protocols in time to play Saturday versus the Cowboys.

  • Notches first sack Week 5

    Cox had two tackles (one solo) and one sack during Philadelphia's win over the Panthers in Week 5.

    Analysis: Cox only has four tackles, one sack and a forced fumble through five appearances this season, so he's only worth IDP consideration in plus matchups. Thursday night's contest against the Buccaneers doesn't seem like an ideal situation for the veteran defensive lineman, though he has played at least 70 percent of defensive snaps in back-to-back games.

  • Off injury report

    Cox (cramps) wasn't listed on the Eagles' injury report Wednesday.

    Analysis: Cox was able to practice fully Wednesday and he should be good to go for Sunday's contest against the Chiefs. The defensive tackle was forced to leave the Eagles' Week 3 battle early, but his exit ended up only being for cramps.

    Published: Wed, Sep 29 at 5:31pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Exits with cramps

    Cox exited Monday's Week 3 contest against the Cowboys and went to the locker room due to cramping.

    Analysis: Cox was down on the field for a few minutes but received water from the training staff before taking his feet to exit to get to the sideline. He seemed to motion for an I.V., though there has been no official word from the team regarding any treatment that he is receiving.

  • Good to go for Week 3

    Cox (illness) was a full participant during Saturday's practice and isn't listed on the Eagles' injury report ahead of Monday's matchup with the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Cox sat out of Friday's practice with an illness, but he was back in action Saturday. The 30-year-old defensive tackle played 50 defensive snaps and registered four tackles during Week 2.

  • Available for Week 1

    Cox (groin) isn't listed on the Eagles' injury report Wednesday.

    Analysis: Cox injured his groin at practice a couple of weeks ago and therefore was limited in practice. The defensive tackle also missed the Eagles' preseason game against the Patriots due to the injury. Although Cox did miss some practice, he will be good to go for Sunday's season opener against the Falcons.

    Published: Wed, Sep 8 at 4:44pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Limited by groin injury

    Cox was listed as a limited participant in Sunday's practice due to a groin injury, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: This is the first instance that Cox has been slowed by the injury. Give that he didn't participate in Thursday's preseason game against the Patriots, it's unclear how he picked up the issue. Even so, given that Cox was still a limited participant, it doesn't appear that he will be hampered long.

  • To miss 2020 finale

    Cox (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday night's game against Washington after being listed as a non-participant for Friday's practice.

    Analysis: The six-time Pro Bowler had to exit Philadelphia's Week 16 loss with a stinger after fielding just seven defensive snaps. Cox was subsequently listed as a non-participant throughout the entire practice week before being deemed out for the Eagles' 2020 finale. He's proven to be incredibly durable with just four absences over nine pro campaigns, but there isn't much to gain in pushing the 30-year-old back into action. Philadelphia was eliminated from playoff contention with its loss to Dallas…read more

  • Leaves with stinger

    Cox suffered a stinger during Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Cox has battled a neck injury for the better part of December. He was spotted on the bench without his shoulder pads during the second quarter. It's a big loss if he can't return, as Cox has produced 40 tackles and 6.5 sacks through 14 games. Javon Hargrave figures to absorb Cox's role moving forward.

  • Active Sunday

    Cox (neck) is active for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

    Analysis: The 30-year-old was considered questionable as he continues to manage the neck injury, but it won't prevent him from suiting up Sunday. Cox should continue to play a pivotal role in Philadelphia's defensive line rotation.

    Published: Sun, Dec 27 at 12:12pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Questionable for Sunday

    Cox (neck) is questionable for Sunday's game at Dallas.

    Analysis: The 30-year-old has battled the neck issue throughout December, though he has yet to miss any time due to the injury. Cox has sat out only two games over the past eight seasons, so he's likely to take the field Sunday barring a setback.

    Published: Fri, Dec 25 at 1:15pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Held out of practice Wednesday

    Cox (neck) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Though Cox continues to be tagged with a neck issue, his lack of participation Wednesday likely has more to do with his typical veteran rest day. Cox has yet to miss a contest in 2020 and has sat out only two regular-season games over the past eight years.

    Published: Wed, Dec 23 at 4:04pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Upgraded Thursday

    Cox (neck) was a full participant during Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Cox missed Wednesday's practice completely with the neck issue, but as evidenced by this news, he's on track to play in Sunday's game against the Saints. The veteran has seen action in at least 62 percent of defensive snaps in each game this season, so expect Cox back out there in his usual starting role across the defensive line.

    Published: Thu, Dec 10 at 3:16pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Misses practice

    Cox didn't suit up in Wednesday's practice due to a neck injury.

    Analysis: Cox saw his practice reps managed last week due to the neck issue, so the injury seems to continue to bother the veteran. Cox has been a force on the defensive line this season, seeing action in at least 62 percent of defensive snaps in each game and racking up 5.5 sacks. He'll likely need to log practice time at some point during the week to have a chance to suit up in Sunday's game against the Saints.

  • Ready to rock

    Cox (neck) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game in Green Bay.

    Analysis: Cox was limited in Friday's practice, but it appears as though the veteran defensive tackle simply had a cap on his reps for management purposes. He's set to draw his usual start against the Packers.

    Published: Fri, Dec 4 at 1:08pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Sits out practice Wednesday

    Cox (neck) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: This is a new injury for Cox, who managed to play 70 percent of the defensive snaps in Monday's loss to the Seahawks. Cox is instrumental to the Eagles' defensive line, and any missed time would greatly impact the defense in the pass-rushing and run-stopping departments. He'll look to get on the field in some capacity by Friday with a Week 13 matchup against the Packers on tap.

    Published: Wed, Dec 2 at 4:06pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Sacks QB for fourth straight game

    Cox made five tackles (four solo) and a sack in Monday's 23-17 loss to the Seahawks.

    Analysis: After starting the year off a bit sluggish -- he posted just 1.5 sacks through seven games -- Cox has notched a sack in four straight outings. The matchups have certainly been favorable, and he'll draw a tougher matchup in Week 13 against the Packers, as Aaron Rodgers has been sacked on just 2.8 percent of dropbacks (third-fewest in the league).

  • Gearing up Sunday

    Cox (abdomen) is active for Sunday's game versus the Bengals.

    Analysis: Cox will avoid missing his first game since the 2017 season. He'll line up as the Eagles' starting defensive tackle Sunday. Through two games, the lifelong Eagle has posted six tackles (five solo) but hasn't gotten to the QB yet.

    Published: Sun, Sep 27 at 8:38am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Officially questionable for Week 3

    Cox (abdomen) is officially listed as questionable on the final injury report heading into Sunday's game against the Bengals, Martin Frank of the Delaware News Journal reports.

    Analysis: Cox's designation comes as no surprise considering he's expected to be a game-time decision. The 0-2 Eagles could certainly use the starting defensive tackle's presence against a Bengals team that will try to establish the run with Joe Mixon in order to take pressure off rookie quarterback Joe Burrow.

    Published: Fri, Sep 25 at 12:16pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Labeled game-time decision

    Cox (abdomen) will try to practice Friday and will be a game-time decision for Sunday's tilt against the Bengals, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Cox was called day-to-day earlier this week, but he's since missed back-to-back practices. The extent of his activity Friday could play a significant role in determining whether the veteran defensive tackle will be able to suit up Week 3, but Cox also boasts enough experience that he could have a shot to take the field even without any practice reps.

    Published: Fri, Sep 25 at 8:27am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Nursing oblique issue

    Cox did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to an oblique injury.

    Analysis: Cox is day-to-day, per Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer, so he could still have a shot at suiting up against Cincinnati on Sunday if he's able to upgrade his practice activity Thursday and Friday. The veteran defensive tackle has yet to record a sack this season, and a lingering oblique issue only makes him more difficult to trust in IDP formats.

    Published: Wed, Sep 23 at 2:31pm by Rotowire.com

  • Makes 40 tackles in 2019

    Cox recorded 40 tackles (26 solo), 3.5 sacks, two pass breakups and three forced fumbles while playing in all 16 of the Eagles' regular-season games in 2019.

    Analysis: Cox has logged between 40 and 46 tackles in three of the past four campaigns, but he turned in the second-lowest sack total of his eight-year career. He'll likely bounce back and re-emerge as a reliable low-end option in IDP leagues next season.

  • Good to go Week 17

    Cox (triceps) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Analysis: Cox began the week as a limited practice participant, but he put in a full session Friday to avoid the questionable tag. The 29-year-old should play his usual role as the anchor of the Eagles' defense up front.

    Published: Fri, Dec 27 at 2:09pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Puts in limited session

    Cox (triceps) was limited in practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Cox has been limited in both practices of the week so far. His activity Friday bears monitoring, but the Mississippi State product will likely suit up against the Giants in Week 17. He's played in all 16 games this season.
