Jordan Matthews is not expected to play Sunday against the Bengals because of an ankle injury, according to the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, while Nelson Agholor is expected to be active, per ESPN's Adam Caplan.
Matthews hasn't practiced all week after suffering the injury last Monday night against Green Bay. He is the Eagles' leading receiver with 57 catches for 686 yards and three touchdowns. The team has called him a game-time decision.
If Matthews doesn't play the Eagles will have only four healthy receivers active Sunday: Agholor, Dorial Green-Beckham and undrafted rookies Bryce Treggs and Paul Turner.
Agholor's struggles have been well-noted, and the Eagles held him out against the Packers last Monday night. Turner made his season debut with Agholor out.
In 10 games, the second-year pro has 27 catches for 264 yards with one touchdown, which came in the Eagles' season-opening win over Cleveland.
The Eagles' wide receivers have been underwhelming this season, and they're reportedly interested in bringing back DeSean Jackson in the offseason.

But for now, they may be without their leading receiver Sunday and hope the night off last week pays dividends for Agholor.
