The second half the Eagles season opener against the Cowboys started eerily similar to the first half. During the offense’s first drive, Landon Dickerson was down and was slow to return to the huddle. He shook it off, but was obviously in pain as he lined back up for the next snap.
Later, things got worse, and halfway through the fourth quarter, Dickerson got rolled up on and then carefully made his way to the sideline and was replaced by Brett Toth at left guard. Soon after, Dickerson made his way to the locker room and was listed as questionable to return with a back injury.
Dickerson was dealing with a knee injury throughout training camp, and then was listed as limited in practice this week with a back injury. He’s no stranger to pushing through the pain, but it’s not encouraging that he’s already banged up and it’s only Week 1.
The Eagles offense is dependent on that consistent and dominant offensive line, and we’ll need Dickerson for what will be a very long season.
