Jeremy Maclin said he expects to play Sunday after getting in a near-full session in Wednesday's practice.
All signs are point toward Maclin suiting up against the Giants on Sunday Night Football. Barring a setback, he can be safely penciled in as your WR2, though it's unclear how effective he'll be at what is presumed to be less than 100 percent.

Jeremy Maclin (hip) will practice on Wednesday.
Maclin was held out of last week's game in Arizona with one eye on the Week 4 showdown against the Giants. Even though he'll likely end up "limited" Wednesday, he's on track to be active and starting. Maclin had five catches for 69 yards in one appearance against the Giants last season.

Eagles coach Andy Reid expects Jeremy Maclin (hip) back for Week 4.
Reid said at Monday's presser that Maclin is "making progress" after getting in extremely few practice reps last week. Maclin's presence was sorely missed in Sunday's embarrassing loss to the Cardinals, and barring another setback, he'll likely suit up against the Giants. We'll know more about his potential effectiveness when the Eagles return to practice on Wednesday.

Eagles coach Andy Reid responded "we'll see" when asked Friday about Jeremy Maclin's (hip, out) availability going forward.
Reid avoided the question when asked whether Maclin suffered a setback. "He didn't really make any improvement from yesterday," Reid conceded. "We didn't have him do much yesterday and he really didn't make any improvements so we're going to give him the week off here to make sure we get that thing back." Maclin will sit out at Arizona and hopefully return in Week 4 against the Giants.

Jeremy Maclin (hip) did not join teammates for the start of Friday's practice.
Maclin was not dressed out in shells and helmet during the media portion of practice. Although he was a late arrival for Thursday's practice, he appears to be sitting this one out. This does nothing to ease concerns that Maclin will sit out at worst and come down to a game-time decision at best. Check back Friday afternoon for an update.

Jeremy Maclin (hip) was held out of practice again on Thursday.
Maclin was clearly limited in last week's game, and ESPN's Chris Mortensen has predicted that he won't play at Arizona. Even if Maclin makes a surprising return for Friday's practice, fantasy owners are likely looking at a game-time decision in a tough matchup.

Coach Andy Reid said Jeremy Maclin can not make his hip injury any worse by playing on it.
In other words, Maclin's availability for Sunday's game against the Cardinals will depend on pain tolerance. ESPN's Chris Mortensen has already reported that he doesn't expect Maclin to suit up. We'll know more by Friday.

ESPN's Chris Mortensen expects Jeremy Maclin (hip) to miss Week 3 against the Eagles.
Undrafted rookie Damaris Johnson would start in his place. While Maclin showed toughness gutting out his hip injury in Week 2, the Eagles can't afford for him to be aggravating the ailment every game. It would probably behoove everyone for Maclin to take a week off. The Eagles visit Arizona on Sunday.
