The Eagles have moved guard Landon Dickerson and tight ends Grant Calcaterra and Eli Stowers off injured reserve and onto the active roster before their game against the Cowboys. The team also made two temporary additions from its practice squad.

Dickerson returns after a knee injury kept him out of five games. He had started the season opener at left guard. Calcaterra has yet to play this season because of a back injury.

Stowers, selected in the second round this year, is expected to make his NFL debut against the Cowboys. A quad injury sidelined him for all six games.

Cornerback Jakorian Bennett was designated to return but has not been activated from injured reserve. Running back Elijah Mitchell and linebacker Keyshawn James-Newby were the two players temporarily elevated from the practice squad.
