and Hey everybody welcome to another episode of Purple Insider Matthew Coller here and

0:27.8

coming up in just a moment on the show will be Brian Murphy doing his usual Brian Murphy things on Monday morning.

0:35.1

Murf you want to check out his column purple insider.com is a good place to

0:39.9

find that we got Murf back in the press box yesterday for the first time in a while so that's a very good conversation but to start the show I just wanted to give you an update from a few things out at TCO Performance Center.

0:53.3

One of those just being the injury report,

0:55.6

Garrett Bradbury did not practice on Monday,

0:58.8

which is not a great sign.

1:00.3

Now they did more of a walkthrough, so it wasn't a full practice, but it was more of an estimation of who would have practiced. I know that's wonky, but it's a short week and that's how it goes. So they would have assumed Bradbury would not have practiced with the back issue. I would suspect, and we'll see what happens on Tuesday, I would suspect that Austin Schlopman will be your center against the Philadelphia Eagles who had a pretty good defensive line performance and Christian Darisau with the ankle injury limited and Marcus Davenport still limited as well and the only thing

1:35.7

Kevin O'Connell could really say about both guys or all three is that they are

1:41.1

limited and they are day to day.

1:44.4

So that you know the Davenport and Darisaw and maybe there's a little less

1:48.6

optimism about Bradbury but he qualified all of them as just being day to day.

1:54.6

So I don't really know what that means for Darisaw and Davenport status in Philadelphia.

2:00.2

All I know is that they could really use those guys against the Philadelphia Eagles.

2:05.2

If you look back at how the replacements for Marcus Davenport performed,

2:10.6

it was not particularly good by the PFF grades. It did not go well for Patrick Jones for

2:16.8

DJ Wannum. Even though Benton Whitley got his nose in there a little bit on one play, they

2:22.0

need Marcus Davenport back. And and of course Oli Udo also struggled in just the few snaps that he came in for Christian Daresaw. Austin Schlutman is a proven NFL backup, but that's not ideal when you're going up against the Eagles.

2:37.0

And O'Connell was asked if Garrett Bradbury's back issue is the same problem that he had last year and he said

2:45.2

quote it's similar I don't want to speculate on exactly the pinpoint area and

2:50.8

things like that we're still working through that, but kind of a similar response and we're hoping he's feeling good today and we'll see how that looks moving forward.

3:00.0

So the thing with that is Kevin Seifert asked Kevin O'Connell.
