Report: Alshon Jeffery Had Surgery to Repair a Torn Rotator Cuff He Suffered in Training Camp

Alshon Jeffery made a number of terrific catches on the Eagles' run to the franchise's first every Super Bowl. His acrobatic grabs are even more impressive with the benefit of hindsight, as it seems he was playing the entire season with a torn rotator cuff.

Jeffery had surgery Wednesday to repair a torn rotator cuff that he suffered during training camp, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Despite the injury, he played in all 19 games for the Eagles this year and had 57 catches for 789 yards and nine touchdowns in the regular season. In Super Bowl LII, he had three catches for 73 yards and the game's opening touchdown in the Eagles' 41-33 victory over the Patriots in Super Bowl LII.
