Eagles Injury Report: Trent Cole plays a prank on the media

The Philadelphia Eagles have released their first official injury report in preparation of their Week 17 game against the New York Giants.

Trent Cole told reporters he might not play on Sunday but it turns out he was just messing with them. It looks like Cole will play. The veteran was listed as a full participant in practice despite suffering a broken hand last week. Cole's toughness can't be doubted. This could be his last game playing for the Eagles.

Much-maligned Eagles cornerback Bradley Fletcher was limited in practice due to a hip issue. Fletcher reportedly took most of the repetitions on the outside so it appears he could be in line to start against New York.

Casey Matthews wasn't at practice due to the birth of his first son. Congrats to the Matthews family.

All other players are listed as probable or better.
