The moneyline has been steadily moving towards the Eagles since the Super Bowl 59 odds opened 12 days ago. Philly was a +105 underdog in the opening Chiefs vs Eagles spread, but Nick Sirianni’s team is as short as -110 at some sportsbooks as of Friday afternoon. The NFL public betting trends show Philadelphia getting 58% of moneyline handle and a massive 75% of ATS handle as of 2:23 pm ET.

Update: “Illness” Sweeping Through Eagles Locker Room?

A storyline not covered in the final injury reports is the “illness” that seems to have gripped the Eagles’ locker room. Late on Thursday, reports started coming in that numerous Eagles players – five in total, including several key contributors on the defensive side of the ball – were battling “illnesses”. Philadelphia’s two biggest weapons on the defensive line, Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith, were reportedly battling flu-like symptoms, while star rookie cornerback Quinyon Mitchell had laryngitis.

The media appears to have blown the issue out of proportion, though. All three of those key defensive starters practiced in full on Friday and there is no suggestion, as of Sunday morning, that any are at risk of missing the biggest game of their lives.

Eagles’ DeVonta Smith Limited, But Brandon Graham Practices in Full

DeVonta Smith (833 receiving yards, eight TDs) has been limited all week due to a hamstring injury. Philadelphia’s second-leading receiver during the regular season, Smith has caught exactly four passes in each of the Eagles’ first three postseason games this year, turning all 12 of his targets into receptions. Smith and AJ Brown are Philly’s only real deep threats and it will be a big blow if he’s less than 100%.

Smith doesn’t have an injury designation so will definitely be in the lineup, but it’s unclear if he will have his full burst downfield.

Philadelphia could get a boost along the defensive line if veteran edge rusher Brandon Graham is able to return. Graham has been out since late November with a triceps/elbow injury. The 36-year-old, who has 76.5 career sacks and is only two years removed from an 11-sack season, is not the force he used to be on the edge. But he had 3.5 sacks and 6.5 TFLs in nine games during the regular season before getting injured. He would be a significant addition to the Eagles D-line if he’s able to return at anything close to full speed.

After the NFC Championship Game, the injury that was top-of-mind for most Philadelphia fans would have been center Cam Jurgens (back), who missed both the Wild Card and Divisional Rounds before playing just 13% of snaps in the Conference Championship because his replacement, Landon Dickerson, was also banged up (knee). Jurgens has been a full participant in every Eagles’ practice this week, though, as has Dickerson, which will come as a massive relief for a team that relies so heavily on a big push from its offensive line.

Patrick Mahomes Is a Full Go

It was something of a surprise to see Mahomes listed on the initial injury reports this week with the same ankle injury he’s been battling since Week 14. It was a surprise because using the word “battling” is an overstatement based on what we’ve seen on the field. After a relatively pedestrian regular season, Mahomes has been electric in the playoffs, as he so often has been during his storied six-year career. That was especially true in the AFC title game against Buffalo, when Mahomes threw for 245 yards and a TD on 18-of-26 passing while also rushing the ball 11 times for 43 yards and two more majors.

Anyone watching the win over the Bills would have been stunned to hear Mahomes’ ankle was anything less than 100%.

He didn’t appear to taken any notable hits to the ankle during the game, either, and now he’s had two weeks for it to heal up even more.

The fact that Mahomes has been on the injury report shouldn’t factor into anyone’s handicapping of this game.

The only KC player who is in danger of missing Super Bowl 59 is seldom used receiver Skyy Moore, who has more highlight reel drops than noticeable receptions. Moore, who has been on IR since late October, had just three targets (zero catches) in six games this season before getting injured. Moore is officially listed as doubtful and his absence may be more of a relief than a worry to Chiefs’ fans.
