FRISCO - The Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles both engaged in a Christmas Day practice on Wednesday with each team listed a star player as a DNP.
For NFC East-division leading Philly, They might have a quarterback problem on their hands heading into Week 17.
Starter Jalen Hurts is in the concussion protocol. His status for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys remains in doubt. … as he did not work on Wednesday.
And for Dallas? CeeDee Lamb vows to continue to play even with his “out of whack” shoulder.

Above, the day’s entire list from both camps.
The Cowboys have been eliminated from playoff contention, so they will travel to Philly in the penultimate game of their season while trying to play the spoiler role against the Super Bowl-contending Eagles.
The Cowboys being 7-8 amid questions of the contractual future of lame-duck coach Mike McCarthy? That's a storyline (and owner Jerry Jones sure wants you to talk about it.)
And Lamb? He will find a way to headline as well..
But the status of Hurts, who played only five minutes of last weekend's loss to the Washington Commanders? That's your "above the fold" issue.
