Foles leaves game with shoulder injury.

bLiTz 2k : 8/16/2018 9:29 pm
Was winding up to throw and was hit for a sack, fumble. Had to leave the game.

With Wentz’s status for week 1 in question, there’s reason for Eagles fans to sweat.

don't see Wentz starting week 1. They'd have to go with Sudfeld.
I don’t want to celebrate

I dont feel bad for any fan base, much less the Eagles, when it comes to injuries. Dont root for em, but yea... +1
Only an idiot

Would root fir injuries.

But most Giants fans other than having emphathy for the individual, are not going have sympathy for the organization.

ESPN showed footage of Wentz in practice,

and man, if that was taken recently, he's not that close. The guy could barely move. If Foles' injury is serious, Philly may have to go QB hunting. Bridgewater makes a ton of sense, and NYJ could (and should!) hold out for a ransom.

Right now I'd guess the price would be a 3rd and a conditional pick based on PT.
I think Wentz  
pjcas18 : 8/17/2018 10:06 am : link
is 50/50 to start opening day if Foles definitely can't. I read Foles sprained his shoulder, no clue if there is anymore investigation going on, but Eli would play through that and Foles has three weeks.

I also recently read reports out of Eagles camp that Wentz is more accurate and has improved his arm strength. His mobility maybe took a hit with the injury, but my guess is it's Wentz for opening day if Foles can't go.
interesting with this injury news....  
BillKo : 8/17/2018 10:18 am : link
...and I believe I saw this on the TV feed last night, the Eagles signed Hackenberg before the game?

Then the question is, why did they do that?
That was a couple days ago  
eli4life : 8/17/2018 10:22 am : link
And because they can develope him and if it don’t work out costs them peanuts probably going developmental league
If Wentz is not Physically ready,  
Doomster : 8/17/2018 10:48 am : link
there is no way Philly takes a chance on putting him out there....

If the injury to Foles is bad, Philly has to go shopping...
of course if Wentz is not physically ready  
pjcas18 : 8/17/2018 10:59 am : link
he's not playing, but the timing was always right around opening day for Wentz even when they learned there was an LCL tear too.

I don't see the Eagles do any major shopping for a one week rental (if that's what it winds up)

Hard for an Eagle hater  
TMS : 8/17/2018 11:48 am : link
not to see this as a good thing. But hope it is not serious, the guy seems to be talented and have a great future. Not good for us but true never the less.
IIRC The Eagles early schedule is weak  
Reale01 : 8/17/2018 12:35 pm : link
They could go 4-0 with Webb

Home Falcons (Crowd and D will carry them)
Away Bucs (No Winston)
Home Colts
Away Titans
issues at WR for them too...  
BillKo : 8/17/2018 12:39 pm : link
Jeffery is maybe on PUP too. Rotator cuff surgery.

I hope Jeffery gets back to his Chicago days where he seemed to underachieve. And with a brand new contract that could be a possibility.

Tennessee on the road is not an easy game at all. And if Luck is healthy now and good to go, IND may not be that easy either.

No NFL game it easy. Still, it could be a lot worse. Also, until last week there were some here that were caught in the Webb ;-)
Reports back that Foles

injury is minor, and he should be fine for opening day (if Wentz isn't)
