Becton (concussion) was listed as a full practice participant Thursday. Becton was diagnosed with a concussion in Week 7, which kept him off the field during the Eagles' Week 8 win over the Bengals. He was listed as an LP/FP to open the week, but he'll still need to pass through the league's five-step concussion protocols before being cleared ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Becton (concussion) was listed as a full practice participant Thursday. Becton was diagnosed with a concussion in Week 7, which kept him off the field during the Eagles' Week 8 win over the Bengals. He was listed as an LP/FP to open the week, but he'll still need to pass through the league's five-step concussion protocols before being cleared ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Becton (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's contest against the Bengals. Becton suffered a concussion during the Eagles' Week 7 win over the Giants. He was in concussion protocols all week and was unable to practice, which puts him in jeopardy of missing the Eagles' Week 9 contest against the Jaguars on Sunday, Nov. 3. Tyler Steen is the top candidate to start at right guard for Sunday's contest.
Becton exited Sunday's game against the Giants with a concussion and will not return. The Eagles' starting right guard was quickly ruled out, and Tyler Steen has replaced Becton in the lineup between center Cam Jurgens and right tackle Lane Johnson.
Becton (finger) was a full participant in Thursday's practice. Becton was limited during Wednesday's walkthrough, but he managed to practice without restrictions Thursday. The 2020 first-round pick has a torn ligament in his left ring finger, but he plans on wearing a cast and playing through the injury.
Becton (finger) was a limited participant in the Eagles' walkthrough session Wednesday. Becton tore the ligament in his left ring finger during the Eagles' win over the Saints in Week 3. However, the 2020 first-round pick is expected to suit up against the Buccaneers on Sunday while wearing a cast on his finger, per Zach Berman of The Athletic.
Becton (finger) is questionable to return to Philadelphia's matchup versus the Saints on Sunday. Becton was replaced by Tyler Steen after exiting the game in the first half due to a finger injury. The Eagles are now shorthanded on their offensive line, as Lane Johnson (concussion) is also questionable to return.
Becton (leg) doesn't have a major injury and should be fine, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports. Becton exited practice Sunday after hurting his leg, but it doesn't appear that the issue will cost him much, if any, time. The 2020 first-round draft pick of the Jets has received first-team reps throughout his first training camp with Philadelphia and appears to have the edge for the starting role at right guard over Tyler Steen (ankle) as the regular season nears.
Becton and the Eagles have agreed on a one-year, $5.5 million contract, pending a physical Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Becton appears to be set to join the Eagles after starting 16 games with the Jets in 2023. The offensive tackle has dealt with multiple significant lower-body injuries in his four-year NFL career, limiting his time on the field, and he'll look to carve out a consistent role with Philadelphia.
Becton is set to meet with the Bengals on Thursday, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports. Becton was finally healthy in 2023, starting 16 games on the Jets' offensive line. The offensive tackle will now look to latch on with Cincinnati, who just lost Jonah Williams to the Cardinals on Wednesday.
