With less than 90 minutes until kickoff between the Eagles and the Packers on Monday Night Football, the Eagles released their inactives and adjusted starting lineups for tonight’s game.
#Eagles Inactives: WR Agholor, RB Mathews, DE Means, OL Gordon, T Vaitai, DT Hart, G B.Brooks

Headlining that group is receiver Agholor, who has been Public Enemy #1 this week in Philadelphia after a porous season full of dropped passes. For his own good, he is a healthy scratch.
The most surprising name on that list is offensive lineman Brooks, who apparently is severely under the weather.
#Eagles G Brandon Brooks was hospitalized earlier today with an illness and will be inactive for tonight’s game.

These inactives leave Doug Pederson to make some shifting to the starting lineup, specifically on that offensive line.
Changes to the #Eagles starting lineup: Treggs at WR, Wisniewski at LG, Seumalo at RG, Barbre at RT, Sproles at RB

Treggs with the deep threat, Jordan Matthews on the outside, and newly-promoted Paul Turner in the slot seems like the best set of receivers Carson Wentz has yet to have this season, but with this switched up line, will he have the protection to connect with them?
