5:40 PM: While the Eagles are coming off the mini-bye weekend, the Minnesota Vikings enjoyed their bye in Week 6 after a win over the Browns in London.

Who will start at quarterback against the Eagles? J.J. McCarthy has missed the past three games with an ankle injury, but will return to the practice field this week, Head Coach Kevin O'Connell told reporters on Monday.

With McCarthy sidelined, Carson Wentz has won two of his three starts after coming out of retirement just before the start of the season. Wentz suffered a left (non-throwing) shoulder injury against the Browns, but was able to finish the game.

The Vikings opened the 21-day practice window for linebacker Blake Cashman, who wears the green dot communications helmet on defense. Cashman suffered a hamstring injury in the season opener.

O'Connell also said that starting offensive linemen Donovan Jackson (left guard, wrist) and Brian O'Neill (right tackle, knee) will return to practice this week after missing time due to injury. – Chris McPherson
