Shockwaves Hit Eagles: Key CB Quinyon Mitchell Ruled Out—What This Means for the Season

Quinyon Mitchell’s day on the field came to an early, disappointing halt when he limped off to the training room during the first half — a hamstring injury cutting short what had been a standout performance. Though he made it back to the sideline, he wasn’t suiting up to rejoin the fray, watching from the bench with a beanie pulled low. It hardly came as a surprise when the Eagles officially ruled him out, especially given the severity of hamstring strains. That stings, considering Mitchell’s recent haul of NFC defensive player of the week honors following their victory over the Buccaneers on September 28. Stepping up in his place is Adoree Jackson, who’s been shuffled around the depth chart and now finds himself back in the spotlight after losing his starting spot to Kelee Ringo. Meanwhile, Jaxson Dart has already hooked up 137 yards through the air, keeping the Giants narrowly ahead at 20-17. This game is shaping up to be a real rollercoaster. LEARN MORE
