The Eagles released their final injury report on Thursday, and there's no injury designation for DeVonta Smith, who is dealing with a chest and shoulder ailment and an illness.

Philadelphia is still recovering from its loss to Dallas, but is now ready for a Friday afternoon matchup against the Bears, one day after Thanksgiving. The Eagles' first Black Friday game is critical, with both teams 8-3 and in the top three in the NFC.

Wide receiver Xavier Gipson (shoulder) and offensive tackle Lane Johnson (foot) have been ruled out, while rookie safety Andrew Mukuba (ankle) was placed on injured reserve. Smith (shoulder/chest/illness), star running back Saquon Barkley (groin), safety Reed Blankenship (thigh), offensive guard Landon Dickerson (knee), and defensive end Brandon Graham (groin) all participated and will play.
