Eagles linebacker Nakobe Dean will make his 2025 debut on Thursday Night Football.

The team made his return official, activating him from the reserve/physically unable to perform list.

The Eagles will limit Dean’s workload, defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said earlier this week.

Dean, 24, has not played since tearing a patellar tendon in the Eagles’ playoff win over the Packers on Jan. 13.

The Eagles also elevated defensive tackle Gabe Hall from the practice squad.

Hall’s promotion could be a sign that defensive tackle Jalen Carter won’t play tonight. Carter is questionable with a heel injury.
