Report: Eagles RB Tank Bigsby headed to injured reserve
PhillyVoice • • sports
Key Points:
- Philadelphia Eagles running back Tank Bigsby will undergo core muscle surgery and has been placed on injured reserve, sidelining him for at least four games.
- Bigsby sustained his injury late in the fourth quarter against the Rams and has accumulated 28 carries for 91 yards and one touchdown this season.
- The Eagles face a significant running back crisis as RB1 Saquon Barkley suffered a hamstring injury in the first quarter of the same game, with his status still uncertain.
- With Barkley potentially sidelined, the Eagles may rely on Will Shipley as their only healthy running back on the active roster, supplemented by practice squad backs Dameon Pierce, Jaydon Blue, and Carson Steele.
- If Barkley is unavailable for the upcoming game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London, the Eagles are expected to activate two of their practice squad running backs for gameday.
