Eagles Superstar Offensive Guard Suffers Serious Injury, Carted Off the Field
Philadelphia’s preseason caution policy has kept most starters off the field to avoid unnecessary injuries, especially along the offensive line. With rookies and backups taking the reps, veterans were expected to stay fresh and ready for Week 1.
But during Sunday night’s practice, those precautions weren’t enough. The session came to an abrupt halt when a key offensive lineman collapsed after a non-contact incident. Trainers rushed in, assessing what appeared to be a leg injury, before a cart was brought out to escort him from the field. (Video Below)
Witnesses noted he was unable to put any weight on the injured leg. While the team has yet to confirm the severity, the sight alone left teammates and fans holding their breath.
Three-time Pro Bowl guard Landon Dickerson — has battled injuries throughout his career, from multiple ACL tears and ankle issues in college to foot, thumb, and knee problems in the NFL. His most recent setback came in the NFC Championship Game, requiring offseason surgery.
As of now, the Eagles have not released an official update. Further tests will determine whether this is another major hurdle for one of their most dependable linemen, or just a scare in an otherwise careful preseason.
