Misses practice Tuesday
Mailata (concussion) didn't participate in Philadelphia's practice Tuesday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata will have to clear the league's concussion protocol in order to return to the field, and it's currently unclear when he picked up the injury. The 28-year-old should be good to go for the team's Week 1 matchup versus the Cowboys, and Kendall Lamm will take over for him as the team's top left tackle in practice while Mailate remains sidelined.
Jan 5, 2025
Healthy inactive for Week 18
Mailata (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Mailata is among a plethora of starters Philadelphia is sitting for rest purposes with the team having locked up the No. 2 playoff seed in the NFC. Joining Mailata as healthy inactives along the Eagles' offensive line are right tackle Lane Johnson and left guard Landon Dickerson.
Nov 13, 2024
Activated Wednesday
The Eagles activated Mailata (hamstring) from injured reserve Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Mailata practiced in full all week after his 21-day practice window was opened Monday, and he's now in line to return for Thursday night's divisional matchup against the Commanders. With Mailata fully past his hamstring issue, he's expected to serve as the Eagles' top left tackle in Week 11.
Nov 11, 2024
Designated to return
Mailata (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday.
ANALYSIS
Mailata has missed Philadelphia's last four games after sustaining a hamstring injury in Week 6's win over the Browns. However, the opening of his 21-day practice window Monday suggests he's nearing a return to the field. Mailata now has a chance to play in Sunday's matchup against the Commanders if he's activated to the Eagles' active roster in time.
Oct 18, 2024
Sent to injured reserve
The Eagles placed Mailata (hamstring) on injured reserve Friday.
ANALYSIS
Mailata was injured in last Sunday's win over the Browns and was initially given a timetable of a "couple weeks" by coach Nick Sirianni. The Eagles' left tackle will now miss a minimum of four contests. He'll be eligible to return in Week 11 versus Washington. Fred Johnson replaced Mailata at left tackle following his injury last week and should get the first crack at the job.
Oct 14, 2024
Set to miss a couple weeks
Head coach Nick Sirianni told reports Monday that Mailata will be out "a couple weeks" after sustaining a hamstring injury in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Browns, Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It now appears Mailata's hamstring injury is serious enough to sidelined him for the immediate future. Expect Fred Johnson to serve as the Eagles' top left tackle while Mailata recovers from injury.
Oct 14, 2024
Will get MRI
Mailata will undergo an MRI to evaluate the hamstring injury he sustained during Sunday's game versus the Browns, John Clark of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata had to be carted off the field in Week 6, so it's possible he's nursing a severe issue. As the Eagles await imaging results, Fred Johnson will prepare with the first team to fill in at tackle.
Oct 13, 2024
Spotted with crutches
Mailata (hamstring) was seen using crutches after Sunday's 20-16 win over the Browns, Brandon Lee Gowton of Bleedinggreennation.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata was carted off the field after suffering the injury and ruled out for the remainder of the game almost immediately. Details of the injury remain unknown, but it does appear to be on the more serious side. More clarity on a recovery timeline will likely come later in the week.
Oct 13, 2024
Carted off field Week 6
Mailata suffered a hamstring injury against Cleveland on Sunday and has been ruled out for the remainder of the contest, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
The injury may be pretty serious, as Mailata needed a cart to get off the field and go into the tunnel. With Philadelphia's starting left tackle done for the day, Fred Johnson has the unenviable task of trying to stop Browns pass rusher Myles Garrett.
Apr 4, 2024
Inks big three-year extension
The Eagles and Mailata agreed to terms Thursday on a three-year, $66 million contract extension Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata becomes one of the NFL's highest-paid left tackles, and will remain under contract for Philadelphia through the 2028 season. Since agreeing to his first extension back in 2021, Mailata has solidified himself as one of the league's best LTs, making his continued presence as the protector of Jalen Hurts' blind side a linchpin of the Eagles' offense, especially with the O-line still recovering from Jason Kelce's retirement.
Oct 15, 2022
Set to face Dallas
Mailata (shoulder) does not have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Mailata was forced to miss the Eagles' Week 5 matchup against Arizona, but he logged two limited practices early in the week and a full session Friday. He'll return to his role as the team's starting left tackle.
Oct 7, 2022
Unlike to face Arizona
Mailata (shoulder) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals.
ANALYSIS
Mailata did not practice at all throughout the week after suffering an injury in the Eagles' Week 4 win over the Jaguars. Assuming he's unable to go, Jack Driscoll is likely to take over at left tackle.
Oct 3, 2022
Undergoes MRI
Mailata (shoulder) underwent an MRI on Monday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata exited Sunday's victory over Jaguars early after hurting his shoulder and Monday's MRI suggests that he may have sustained a significant injury. If he's forced to miss any time, Jack Driscoll could step into a starting role while the team also signed Tyrese Robinson to their practice squad Monday.
Oct 2, 2022
Sustains injury Sunday
Mailata (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata's absence will leave the Eagles undermanned at left tackle with backup Andre Dillard (forearm) still on IR. As a result, reserve right tackle Jack Driscoll figures to step in on the left side of Philadelphia's offensive line.
Aug 4, 2022
Misses practice with concussion
Mailata will miss some time in camp after suffering a concussion Tuesday, Bo Wulf of The Athletic Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Backup tackle Andre Dillard also suffered a concussion Tuesday, so the Eagles are currently stuck with third-string option Le'Raven Clark at left tackle. Mailata still has plenty of time to get healthy in time to protect Jalen Hurts' blind side in Week 1 against the Lions, however.
Oct 9, 2021
Slated to return Sunday
Mailata (knee) will be available for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
ANALYSIS
Mailata turned in a full practice Friday, and he'll be back in action following a two-game absence. The 24-year-old could shift to right tackle against Carolina with Lane Johnson (personal) sidelined, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.
Oct 1, 2021
Ruled out for Sunday
Mailata (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
Mailata suffered a sprained MCL in practice leading up to the Eagles' Monday night contest with the Cowboys. The offensive tackle will miss his second consecutive game, while Andre Dillard will likely start for Mailata once again. The 24-year-old's next chance to play will be Week 5 at Carolina.
Sep 25, 2021
Won't play on MNF
Mailata (knee) will miss Monday's game against the Cowboys, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata sprained his MCL in practice Thursday, and the injury will keep him out for at least one game. Andre Dillard will start at left tackle in Mailata's absence.
Sep 24, 2021
Dealing with MCL sprain
Mailata suffered a sprained MCL in Thursday's practice, Tim McManus of 97.5 The Fanatic Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata missed practice Friday to have the injury evaluated, per Mike Kaye of NJ.com, but McManus relays that the injury isn't considered serious now that it's been determined to be a sprained MCL. The starting left tackle should be viewed as questionable for Monday's game against the Cowboys, and Mailata's unlikely to miss much additional time if he ultimately sits out Monday.
Sep 11, 2021
Inks contract extension
Mailata signed a four-year, $64 million contract extension with the Eagles on Saturday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata is expected to serve as Philadelphia's starting left tackle to begin the season, and he was rewarded with a new contract ahead of the Week 1 matchup against Atlanta. The 24-year-old appeared in each of the Eagles' first 15 games last year before he missed the final game of the season with a concussion.
Aug 14, 2021
All but secures starting gig
Mailata is a virtual lock to be the starting left tackle, Bo Wulf of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata has outplayed Andre DIllard (knee) all preseason and was rumored to be ahead in the job battle already. Dillard's absence assured the Australian native of the start at left tackle in the Eagles' preseason opener against the Steelers and may ultimately make the decision on who gets the job quite easy for the coaching staff.
Jan 1, 2021
Sitting out Week 17
Mailata (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Washington.
ANALYSIS
It's yet another hit to the Eagles' depleted offensive line. Brett Toth is expected to start at left tackle for the season finale. Mailata has one year remaining on his rookie contract.
Dec 28, 2020
Suffers concussion Sunday
Mailata is in the league's five-step concussion protocol following Sunday's 37-17 loss to the Cowboys, Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News reports.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles continue to deal with an assortment of injuries on the offensive line. If Mailata is unable to play in the season finale against Washington, Brett Toth is expected to take over a starting tackle position.
Dec 27, 2020
Checked for head injury
Mailata has exited Sunday's game against the Cowboys and is being evaluated for a concussion, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata was forced off the field with under five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, so it's unlikely that he'll return Sunday. If he's indeed placed in the league's five-step concussion protocol, Mailata will need to garner full clearance in order to play Week 17 versus Washington.
Aug 13, 2020
Activated off COVID list
The Eagles activated Mailata from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata spent a little under two weeks on the reserve list and is the final of three Eagles to be activated. He'll now shift his focus to competing for a spot on the 53-man roster after missing the majority of last season with a back injury.
Aug 1, 2020
Placed on COVID-19 list
Mailata was placed on the Eagles' reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.

The reserve offensive lineman missed almost all of last season due to a back injury, and will now be subject to NFL protocol pertaining to COVID-19.
Sep 21, 2019
Goes to IR
Mailata (back) has been placed on IR.
ANALYSIS
Mailata's injury represents a hit to the Eagles' offensive line depth. His roster spot will be used to help fill the team's short-term need at wideout, with Greg Ward having been promoted from the practice squad to Philadelphia's 53-man roster.
Sep 3, 2019
Considered week-to-week
Mailata (back) is considered week-to-week as the regular season approaches, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata picked up a back injury prior to the Eagles' preseason finale. He projects to provide depth at tackle this year once his health allows it.
Aug 30, 2019
Out with lower-back injury
Mailata didn't play in Thursday's preseason game against the Jets with a lower-back injury, Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News reports.

Aug 27, 2019
Picks up injury
Mailata is managing a back injury Tuesday, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Mailata's back injury reportedly isn't expected to be serious, but he'll undergo further testing. The 2018 seventh-round pick suffered a stress fracture in his back down the stretch last season, and it remains to be seen whether his current injury is related.
Aug 23, 2019
Heavy workload versus Ravens
Mailata (back) played 60 snaps during Thursday's preseason loss to the Ravens.
