12:46 PM: Third-year cornerback Kelee Ringo stepped in for an injured Adoree' Jackson (groin) in Sunday's 31-25 win over the Buccaneers. Ringo, who the Eagles drafted 105th overall in 2023, was targeted four times and gave up just one catch for 8 yards, according to Pro Football Focus.

Defensive Coordinator Vic Fangio liked parts of what he saw in Ringo's first start of the season and said "it's possible" Ringo could remain the starter when Jackson is healthy.

"I thought he did good," Fangio said of Ringo. "I mean, he can be better, the true test for him will be to see how he improves, but overall, [he] did good. ... He was pretty sticky in man coverage. I'd like to see his tackling improve. One thing a guy has to learn that has played predominantly special teams is tackling on defense is a lot different than tackling in special teams. But I'm confident he can improve that." – Matt Ryan
