In a tough matchup against the Saints, the Philadelphia Eagles faced significant setbacks as wide receiver DeVonta Smith and right tackle Lane Johnson both suffered concussions, ruling them out for the remainder of the game. Smith's injury occurred after a collision with defensive tackle Khristian Boyd, while Johnson was evaluated in the medical tent before exiting in the first half. The Eagles also dealt with injuries to right guard Mekhi Becton and receiver/returner Britain Covey during the game.
- The Eagles will need to adjust their game plan without two key players.
- Concussions can have lingering effects, so monitoring their recovery will be crucial.
