Eagles vs. Dallas Cowboys injury report: Jason Peters and DeMeco Ryans miss Thursday's practice

PHILADELPHIA -- There is a strong possibility that the Eagles will be without two of their veteran leaders on both offense and defense Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys.

Inside linebacker DeMeco Ryans (hamstring) sat out Thursday's practice for the second consecutive day and it appears unlikely that he will be active Sunday night.

Meanwhile, Eagles head coach Chip Kelly said prior to practice that left tackle Jason Peters would also miss Thursday's session. Peters has been sidelined since suffering back spasms in a Week 7 loss to the Carolina Panthers.
