Eagles face major setback with Landon Dickerson’s back injury against Cowboys

The Philadelphia Eagles are grappling with a significant injury concern as their starting guard, Landon Dickerson, was forced to exit the game against the Dallas Cowboys during Week 1.

Dickerson had appeared on the team’s injury report earlier in the week due to a lingering back issue. Despite this, he managed to participate fully in two practices, leading to his removal from the report on Wednesday. However, it became increasingly evident during the game that he was struggling with the injury.

Latest on Landon Dickerson’s condition

As the game progressed, Dickerson’s discomfort escalated, culminating in his exit. According to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, he departed to the locker room in the fourth quarter during a timeout. Shortly after his exit, the Eagles confirmed that he was indeed contending with his back injury and was listed as questionable to return.

The official update from the team stated: “Injury Update: G Landon Dickerson (back) is questionable to return.” This development raises concerns for the Eagles as they look to maintain their momentum against a fierce division rival. The impact of Dickerson’s absence could be felt not just in this game, but throughout the season if his injury proves serious.
