Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert was back on the practice field Wednesday.

Goedert missed practice all of last week with a knee injury and did not play against the Chiefs last Sunday. Goedert was listed as a limited participant and will have two more days to work toward returning for this weekend's game against the Rams.

Defensive tackle Jalen Carter was also listed as limited with a shoulder injury. Carter dealt with that injury in the summer and defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said this week that Carter still neeeds to work himself into game shape.

Running back Will Shipley (oblique) was the only player out of practice. Quarterback Tanner McKee (right thumb) joined Goedert and Carter as a limited participant.

Former Cowboys linebacker D.D. Lewis died Tuesday, his alma mater, Mississippi State, announced. Lewis was 79.

Lewis played in five Super Bowls, won two Super Bowl rings and played in the most playoff games in team history. He saw action in 27 postseason games, including the 1975 NFC Championship Game against the Rams when he made two interceptions.

Lewis might be most remembered for his quote about Texas Stadium, telling reporters that "Texas Stadium has a hole in its roof so God can watch his favorite team play.”

The Cowboys made Lewis a sixth-round pick in 1968, and he played his rookie season before serving a military commitment. Lewis returned in 1970 and backed up Chuck Howley until Howley retired in 1973.

Lewis' final season was 1981.

He played 186 games, starting 134, and totaled eight interceptions and 15.5 sacks.

The Vikings hope to have left tackle Christian Darrisaw in game action soon and his practice week got off on the right foot Wednesday.

Darrisaw was a full participant in practice. Darrisaw, who is recovering from a torn ACL, was ruled out for Week 2 after limited practices last Thursday and Friday.

Linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel (concussion) was also out against the Falcons, but he was back at practice as a limited participant on Wednesday. Edge rusher Jonathan Greenard (oblique), left guard Donovan Jackson (wrist), safety Theo Jackson (hip), linebacker Austin Keys (groin), tight end Josh Oliver (ankle), and safety Harrison Smith (illness) were also limited.

Center Ryan Kelly (concussion), quarterback J.J. McCarthy (ankle), and tackle Justin Skule (concussion) did not practice. McCarthy has already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Cornerback Jeff Okudah (concussion) was a full participant. He missed Week 2, but returned to practice last Friday.
