Fantasy Impact

Cox missed practice on Wednesday, but he also missed practice last Wednesday in what was ultimately a rest day for the veteran, so eyebrows were not immediately raised.

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson expressed confidence that Fletcher Cox is on track to start in Week 1 against the Redskins.

Fantasy Impact

Cox has spent the summer recovering from offseason foot surgery and the Eagles were making preparations to deal with not having him start at the beginning of the season.
