Report: Eagles QB Carson Wentz has a fractured vertebra

by Jimmy Kempski

With the number of injuries the Eagles have sustained -- and a number of examples of players returning to the field too quickly -- it's fair to have serious concerns about either the medical staff, or the Eagles' willingness to allow injured players to play, or both.

Eagles are still very much in the wildcard hunt

by Jimmy Kempski

A few weeks ago, it looked a lot like it would be NFC East champs or bust in order for the Philadelphia Eagles to make it into the postseason.
