Eagles LG Landon Dickerson reportedly has meniscus injury in right knee
The Philadelphia Eagles did not release an official update on Landon Dickerson on Monday, but the Pro Bowl left guard reportedly has a meniscus injury in his right knee. Dickerson is being further evaluated to decide what's next after the left guard was carted off the field Sunday at the Eagles' open practice, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The Eagles believe Dickerson injured his right meniscus, but it's unclear how long the 26-year-old might be out for, Schefter reported. Dickerson went down with an apparent knee injury during the team's public practice Sunday night at Lincoln Financial Field. He eventually limped off the field with help and reportedly had trouble putting weight on his right leg. He was later carted inside. The severity of Dickerson's injury remains unknown. The Eagles did not have any media availability on Monday. Philadelphia returns to practice at 10 a.m. Tuesday at training camp, so how the team handles left guard could be a telling sign for how serious Dickerson's injury is believed to be. Dickerson has established himself as one of the NFL's top guards after the team drafted him in the second round out of the University of Alabama in 2021. He's made three straight Pro Bowls and has been a key part of arguably the league's best O-line. He started 20 games for the Super Bowl LIX champions and delivered one of the more memorable speeches during the team's parade. Dickerson dealt with a left knee injury last season and underwent surgery in the offseason. On the Eagles' depth chart, Kenyon Green is listed as Dickerson's backup. Green, who was acquired from the Texans in the C.J. Gardner-Johnson trade, was injured in the team's preseason opener last week. Other in-house options at left guard include Matt Pryor, Trevor Keegan, Darian Kinnard and Brett Toth. Losing Dickerson would also impact the Eagles' backup center role. Dickerson has served as Cam Jurgens' backup and started the NFC championship game in January. Jurgens, battling a back injury, came in during the second half when Dickerson left injured. The Eagles drafted Drew Kendall out of Boston College in April's NFL draft. Kendall and Toth are listed as the only centers behind Jurgens on the team's depth chart.

Eagles Pro Bowler Landon Dickerson reportedly dealing with meniscus injury after being carted off at practice
Philadelphia Eagles Pro Bowl guard Landon Dickerson reportedly sustained a meniscus injury during Sunday's practice. Dickerson needed to be carted off the field during practice with what the team deemed a right leg injury. After being examined, it appears Dickerson injured his meniscus, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Dickerson will reportedly seek other options, so it's unclear how much time he'll miss due to the issue. The 26-year-old is one of the key cogs in Philadelphia's excellent offensive line. He's made the Pro Bowl in each of the last three seasons and is considered one of the best guards in the game. This story will be updated.
