The Eagles placed Gates (groin) on injured reserve Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Gates appeared in nine regular-season games with one start for Philadelphia this season, but he has been dealing with a groin injury as of late. Moving him to IR also opened up space on the active roster for Eagles defensive stalwart Brandon Graham, who was officially activated from injured Saturday. With Gates officially out of action, starting left guard Landon Dickerson will likely serve as the backup center behind Cam Jurgens.

Following the Commanders' release of Chase Roullier (knee) on Friday, Gates is expected to take over as the team's starting center, The Athletic's Ben Standig reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gates inked a three-year deal with Washington back in March and made 29 starts in four years with the Giants, showing the ability to play anywhere along the interior line. He'll get the first crack at replacing Roullier, though the Commanders also brought back veteran Tyler Larsen on a one-year deal and drafted Ricky Stromberg in the third round last weekend.

Gates (lower leg) was activated from the PUP list Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gates will return to the active roster for the first time since Week 2 of the 2021 campaign after he suffered a significant left leg fracture. Following multiple operations on the leg and more than a year away from the field, the offensive lineman was able to clear the final hurdles and join the Giants ahead of their Week 8 contest against the Seahawks. Gates is expected to have a significant role on New York's offensive line moving forward.

Gates (lower leg) was designated to return from the PUP list and returned to practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Gates suffered a left leg fracture last September and was sidelined for the remainder of the 2021 season after undergoing multiple operations. He began the 2022 campaign on the PUP list, but he's returned to practice at the earliest possible time, which is an encouraging sign. Regardless, he likely still has a few hurdles to clear and will have a 21-day period to be activated to the active roster. When available, the 27-year-old figures to garner a sizable role along the Giants' offensive line.
