JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — The Philadelphia Eagles will be undermanned overseas.
The Eagles (2-2) will be without star running back Saquon Barkley, receiver DeVonta Smith, pass rusher Jonathan Greenard and three starting offensive linemen when they make the trip across the pond to play the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Coach Nick Sirianni’s message to his team: lock arms and let’s go.
“Every adversity that I’ve been in through my life, they’re not comfortable at the time, but they produce the most growth,” Sirianni said.

OTTAWA - The RCMP says a Canadian has been arrested by the FBI in connection with an attack from a criminal hacking group which breached the bureau's jobs portal and obtained sensitive and personal data on nearly all the FBI's employees.
FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed on Friday the arrest of another co-conspirator in the ShinyHunters attack. He said the arrest had taken place earlier this week, related to a hack of FBIjobs.gov.
“This is the latest arrest this FBI has made in a matter of days involving this network, as we work non-stop to dismantle the group, pursue new leads and evidence, and act quickly," Patel said. "This arrest demonstrates the strength and reach of our efforts to protect Americans from cybercrime. We will continue to work closely with our partners to disrupt what’s left of the ShinyHunters group and their associates, no matter where they operate.”
The arrest was the latest targeting ShinyHunters, the group that claimed responsibility for the hack, as the FBI continues a global investigation into the breach of its network, which Patel said “occurred on a platform managed by a third-party vendor.”

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — After beating the Green Bay Packers for the NFC North title and knocking them out of the playoffs last season, the Chicago Bears have one more opportunity to show definitively that a new chapter has started in the NFL’s most-played rivalry.
Chicago has won three of its past four meetings with the Packers, who had beaten the Bears 11 straight times from 2019-24. The Bears beat the Packers 22-16 in overtime last December after scoring 10 points in the final two minutes of regulation and then erased a 21-3 halftime deficit to beat them again 31-27 in the NFC wild-card playoffs.
The quarterback who led both those comebacks might not be playing Sunday when the Bears (3-1) meet the Packers (2-2) again at Lambeau Field.
Caleb Williams has missed Chicago’s past two games with a hamstring injury, but he returned to practice on a limited basis Friday and was listed as questionable for Sunday's game. Tyson Bagent would start if Williams isn't available.
