Past ankle issue
Steen (ankle) was left off the Eagles' injury report Wednesday ahead of Friday's Week 1 contest against the Packers. Steen sustained an ankle injury during the Eagles' preseason game against the Patriots, but it now appears he's moved past the issue. Expect the 2023 third-round pick out of Alabama to serve as Philadelphia's top backup guard ahead of Friday's Week 1 affair.
Out for game
Steen (ankle) is out for the rest of the Eagles' preseason game against the Patriots on Thursday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. The right guard was down on the field before walking off slowly, visiting the medical tent and being carted to the locker room. Steen has been dealing with the ankle issue since early in training camp. The second-year pro is competing with Mekhi Becton for the Eagles' starting right guard spot.
Back from ankle injury
Steen (ankle) was on the field for 36 offensive snaps (43 percent) in Friday's 16-13 preseason victory over the Ravens, per the NFL's official transaction log. Steen suffered a mild ankle injury earlier in training camp, but it appears he has put the issue behind him. When healthy, he is expected to start at right guard in the Eagles' offensive trenches this year.
Sustains ankle injury
Steen sustained a mild ankle injury during practice Saturday and is expected to miss a few days, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Steen left Saturday's practice early but was able to walk off on his own, and he was replaced at right guard by Darian Kinnard, per McLane. Steen, a 2023 third-round pick out of Alabama, has served as the first-team right guard during training camp after Jason Kelce retired and Cam Jurgens was moved to center.
Working with first team
Head coach Nick Sirianni told reporters Steen will serve as the first-team right guard during Wednesday's practice, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports. With Jason Kelce's retirement and the Eagles moving Cam Jurgens to the center position, Steen has been given the opportunity to start at right guard. Philadelphia brought in former first-round pick Mekhi Becton this offseason as well, and he'll be competing with Steen for the starting right guard spot throughout the offseason; however, for the time being, it seems Steen has the upper hand on Becton.
