[Philadelphia Eagles Place Guard Landon Dickerson on Injured Reserve for At Least Four Weeks]
Eagles guard Landon Dickerson will miss at least four weeks.
Dickerson is going on injured reserve, according to Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer.
In Sunday’s opener against the Commanders, Dickson had a rough day in pass protection, although Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni praised his run blocking. While the precise nature of the injury has not been disclosed, it seems Dickerson was pushing through despite discomfort, prompting the team to decide he requires at least a month to recover fully.
During the offseason, Dickerson noted that he was reassessing how he approaches playing through injuries, though he explicitly denied any thoughts of retirement due to the physical strain the sport places on his body.
The 27‑year‑old Guard was a second‑round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft and has earned three Pro Bowl selections.
Without his start, the Eagles are expected to rely on either Drew Kendall or Willie Lampkin at left guard while Dickerson recovers.
