The Philadelphia Eagles have faced a significant setback as linebacker Nakobe Dean will miss the rest of the playoffs due to a torn patellar tendon in his knee. This injury occurred during the Eagles' Wild Card playoff victory over the Green Bay Packers.
Dean suffered the injury while making a tackle on Packers tight end Tucker Kraft early in the second quarter. He was subsequently carted off the field, leaving the Eagles' defense with a crucial gap as they aim for playoff success.
