Eagles edge rusher Bryce Huff is set to undergo wrist surgery, which will sideline him for a significant portion of the regular season. Coach Nick Sirianni confirmed the procedure, hoping it will improve Huff's functionality in his hand. Despite a promising career start with 10 sacks last season with the Jets, Huff has struggled in Philadelphia, managing only 2.5 sacks this season. His absence will lead to increased roles for Nolan Smith and Jalyx Hunt on the defensive line.
- Bryce Huff's surgery is expected to sideline him until late in the regular season.
- Nolan Smith has stepped up in Huff's absence, showing improved production.
- The Eagles' defense ranks first in yards allowed and sixth in points allowed.
