Fletcher Cox Ruled Out vs. Cardinals with Calf Injury

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson announced Friday that defensive tackle Fletcher Cox will miss his second straight game Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals with a calf injury, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane.

Cox initially suffered the injury in Week 3 against the New York Giants.

Cox reached his second straight Pro Bowl in 2016 after finishing with 6.5 sacks and 43 combined tackles. He helped anchor a defensive line that ranked second in adjusted line yards and 11th in adjusted sack rate, per Football Outsiders.
