Seems like hes good to go.Nice to see no mention of him on the participation/injury report. Although Fleming has held his own, I prefer Waddle at RT.

The way this season started and the way it was going up to the mid-point, we've been very fortunate with injuries since then.
Since the bye which was after our 8-th game we've only lost Ebner and Jonathan Jones. Everyone else is ready.
We lost more players in the pre-season than we did in the regular+playoffs, especially considering Hightower already had a partial tear before the season began so it was a matter of when not if he gets sidelined.
Pre-season: Edelman, Mitchell, Rivers, Valentine, McLellin, Cyrus Jones, Antonio Garcia, unhealthy Hightower
Regular season+Playoffs: Cannon, Ebner, Jonathan Jones+ Harvey Langi who had a non-football injury.
Wow I didn't see this thread and I made one on the same topic. And here I thought I was being all original. :/
This is twice it has happened to me this week.
A healthy Waddle could make a bigger difference than you might think. Fleming has done a serviceable fill in job particularly pass blocking but his run blocking is not up to par. The Pats didn't attempt to run off him at all against Jax and only ran off Mason 3 times. If you throw in the one time they ran off the right end that's a total of only 4 run attempts to the right side with Fleming at RT, that total certainly couldn't have been lost on the Eagles.
