Offensive coordinator Mike Groh hopes that Wallace (lower leg) will be able to return this season, Reuben Frank of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Eagles will have key roster decisions to make during the second half of the season. Aside from Wallace, wide receiver Mack Hollins (groin), tight end Richard Rodgers (knee) and safety Rodney McLeod (knee) are all on injured reserve. Each team can activate two players from IR in a given season. In the Eagles' case, needs on the 53-man and where players stand in their recoveries will guide the decision-making process. Wallace himself is recovering from a fractured right fibula suffered on Sept. 16, so rehab likely remains his focus at the moment.

Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said that Wallace (lower leg) hasn't been ruled out for the season despite being placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Eagles will be able to activate two of their IR players later in the season, with Wallace, receiver Mack Hollins (groin) and tight end Richard Rodgers (knee) currently populating the list. Wallace represents the most significant of those losses, so if he takes meaningful steps forward in his recovery from surgery to repair a fractured fibula, he would likely be earmarked for one of the two activations. With that in mind, Wallace's progress will bear monitoring over the next two months, as he could make a late-season impact for the Eagles as a downfield threat.

The Eagles placed Wallace (lower leg) on injured reserve Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The transaction doesn't come as much of a surprise after Wallace underwent surgery Tuesday to repair a fractured fibula, which he sustained in Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers. Wallace becomes the third Eagles player to land on IR, joining fellow wideout Mack Hollins (groin) and tight end Richard Rodgers (knee). The Eagles will be able to activate two players from IR in the second half of the season, but it's unclear if Wallace has a realistic shot at returning in 2018 following the procedure. Wallace's outlook should become more apparent based on his activity over the next two months, but his multi-week absence will further weaken an injury-ravaged wideout corps. Philadelphia signed slot man Jordan Matthews to address their dwindling numbers at receiver, which may result in Nelson Agholor playing outside more frequently until Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) is back in action.

Wallace reported via his personal Twitter account that he had surgery to repair a fractured fibula he suffered Sunday against the Buccaneers.
EDGE Analysis
Wallace still hasn't been placed on injured reserve, but he will likely land there soon. The Eagles currently have three healthy wideouts -- Nelson Agholor, Shelton Gibson and Kamar Aiken, with Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) possibly returning in the next week or two -- so they will bring in Jeremy Maclin for a workout, John Clark of NBC Philadelphia reports.

Wallace has a fibula fracture that will sideline him for at least the next few weeks, Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News reports.
EDGE Analysis
The wideout won't be placed on IR, pending additional testing, but that potential outcome has not been ruled out. In any case, Wallace is out indefinitely, and with Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) still week-to-week, it's pretty clear that the Eagles need to bolster their depth at wide receiver.

Wallace may have suffered a season-ending ankle injury in the Eagles' loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The receiver is scheduled to undergo further testing Monday as the Eagles look to determine the extent of the injury.
EDGE Analysis
Wallace was spotted in a walking boot after the contest and is currently being labeled out indefinitely, so even if the follow-up tests deliver positive news, it appears safe to conclude he won't play Week 3 against the Colts. With Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) still on the mend and Mack Hollins (groin) on injured reserve, Wallace's injury only further weakens what was already a thin wideout group. While Philadelphia may look to boost their numbers at the position via trade or free agency, Nelson Agholor currently profiles as the team's No. 1 healthy wideout. Unproven youngsters DeAndre Carter and Shelton Gibson are also likely to take on heightened roles in the passing attack at least until Jeffery is cleared to return.

Wallace, who suffered an ankle injury Sunday, is expected be out "for a while," Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The wideout is slated to be evaluated further, but it appears as though the Eagles are bracing for a potential extended absence here. Though Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) could be returning soon, Wallace's injury taxes the team's wide receiver depth and it wouldn't surprise us to see the Eagles seek help at the position in the coming days.

The Eagles ruled Wallace (ankle) out of Sunday's contest at Tampa Bay, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wallace was taken to the locker room in the first quarter on the cart, diagnosed with an ankle injury and ruled out a short time later. He joins Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) as unavailable, leaving Nelson Agholor, Zach Ertz and Corey Clement as the leading healthy candidates for targets in the Eagles offense.

Wallace is questionable to return Sunday at Tampa Bay due to an ankle injury.
EDGE Analysis
During the first quarter of Sunday's game, Wallace limped to the sideline, was examined by the training staff and driven to the locker room via cart for further evaluation. With his injury clarified, a return to the field is murky. In his absence, and the Eagles already down Alshon Jeffery (shoulder), Agholor will lead the way among the team's wideouts, with DeAndre Carter and Shelton Gibson on hand for more snaps and targets.

Wallace (undisclosed) was carted to the locker room during Sunday's game in Tampa Bay, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
After limping off the field in the first quarter, Wallace had his lower body examined on the trainer's table and subsequently needed assistance to get indoors. The nature of the injury is unknown, but with Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) missing a second game in a row Sunday, Nelson Agholor is the Eagles' clear top wideout at the moment. Behind Agholor, DeAndre Carter and Shelton Gibson are the candidates to experience an uptick in targets.
