Eagles rookie Ty Robinson has been declared active for Monday night’s showdown with the Chargers after four consecutive inactive games, signaling a fresh push for the young fourth‑round pick.
Eagles Head to Los Angeles
The Philadelphia Eagles are traveling to Los Angeles to face the San Diego Chargers on Monday night. The matchup pits the Eagles’ offense, led by quarterback Sam Howell, against a Chargers squad that will be missing its star quarterback, Justin Herbert.
Ty Robinson’s Return
Ty Robinson, the fourth‑round rookie, is officially active for the game. He had been inactive for the last four games but feels more prepared than earlier in the season. Robinson said, “Definitely,” Robinson said this week. “I didn’t know nothing coming into the season, right? But being around the guys halfway through the season, I definitely feel like I’ve grown as a player. And obviously I feel a little more ready. But it’s a challenge. I’m not going to back away from a challenge. I’m going to take what I can with it.”
