Eagles’ Week 4 opponent is dealing with some bad news
Some big NFL news that potentially impacts the Philadelphia Eagles: Tampa Bay Buccaneers All-Pro left tackle Tristan Wirfs recently underwent knee surgery that could cause him to miss multiple games.
The Tampa Bay Times’ Rick Stroud reports that Wirfs “will likely begin the season on the Physically Unable to Perform list.” If that’s true, Wirfs will automatically be ineligible to play in the Bucs’ first four games.
That much is relevant for the Eagles, who are set to play at Tampa in Week 4.
If Wirfs can’t play, that’s obviously a major break for the Birds. Especially since Tampa also lost swing tackle Justin Skule earlier this offseason.
Here’s the reaction to the Wirfs injury from Bucs Nation:
