The injury bug had put some severe damage on the Philadelphia Eagles since before they won the Super Bowl. Just as everything feels like it’s starting to come together, more injuries and issues occur. Just last week, Eagles veteran second-string running back Darren Sproles tweaked his hamstring in practice. He was ruled out just a few days before last Sunday’s loss.
To add insult to injury, Eagles starting running back Jay Ajayi went down with a back injury almost immediately last week. Although he was able to return later on in the second half, the Eagles are going to take their time with his recovery.
