Key Points:
- Eagles running back Will Shipley suffered a partial tear of his plantar fascia and is expected to miss multiple weeks following his early exit in Sunday’s game against the Jaguars.
- Shipley started due to injuries to Saquon Barkley (hamstring) and Tank Bigsby (core muscle surgery), both sidelined for extended periods.
- After Shipley’s injury, the Eagles relied heavily on Dameon Pierce, who played a career-high 48 snaps, while Carson Steele contributed only on special teams.
- The Eagles struggled significantly in the running game, gaining just 22 yards on 18 carries, marking their worst rushing performance since 2015.
- The offensive line was largely composed of backups, which contributed to the Eagles’ difficulties in running the ball during the game.
