When the Eagles return from their bye week break next week, they’ll have a bit of a boost as they get ready to play Dallas — corner Ronald Darby is expected to finally practice fully and to be in uniform against the Cowboys, a source close to the situation said, and Eagles coach Doug Pederson more or less confirmed, during Pederson’s Monday news conference.
Darby, acquired from Buffalo in August to be the Birds’ No. 1 corner, dislocated an ankle in the season opener. He has been a partial practice participant the past three weeks, listed as “questionable” each Friday, but never really that close to playing before now.
