All signs are still pointing to quarterback Alex Smith making the start of the Washington Football Team on Sunday night.

Smith is officially on the active roster for the game. He suffered as a doubt with a calf injury, but his training work during the week showed his return to action.

Running rugby Antonio Gibson and wide receiver Terry McLaurin also plan to play. Both were also in the dubious category on their way to the game.

Eagles full-back Carson Wentz is not active for the game. Jalen Hurts will continue to start and Nate Sudfeld will take over for Wentz as his backup.

The wide receivers, DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery, join Wentz, who defends Miles Sanders, Michael Jacquet, defensive back, Jordan Mailata, Richard Rodgers, Dallas Goedert, Defet Fletcher Cox and Derek Barnett on the inactive list.

Wide receiver Antonio Gandy-Golden, wide receiver Robert Foster, returning Lamar Miller, linebacker Kevin Pierre-Louis, linebacker Thomas Davis and tackle David Steinmetz are inactive for Washington.
