Eagles guard Landon Dickerson will miss at least the next four weeks.
Dickerson is on injured reserve, according to Jeff McLane Philadelphia Inquirer.
In Sunday’s opener against the Commanders, Dickerson had a rough day in pass defense, though Eagles coach Nick Sirianni praised his run blocking. Although the exact nature of Dickerson’s injury has not been reported, it appears that Dickerson was playing with something and he and the team have now decided that he needs at least a month to get healthy.
Dickerson said this offseason that he has rethought his approach to playing through injuries, though he denied talk that he was considering retiring because of the physical load that football has taken on his body.
The 27-year-old Dickerson was a second-round pick of the Eagles in 2021 and is a three-time Pro Bowler.
The Eagles will likely go with Drew Kendall or Willie Lampkin at left guard while Dickerson is out.
