Philadelphia Eagles' coach Andy Reid announced Wednesday that wideout Kevin Curtis is set to have sports hernia surgery and will be sidelined for an as yet undetermined, but significant, amount of time.
Curtis was injured during last Thursday's pre-season game against the Carolina Panthers and tried to practice this week, but struggled mightily.
"He tried to work through it but wasn't able to function very well with it during practice, so we decided to go this direction," Reid said.
Reid also indicated that he was not interested in bringing in any new wide receivers at this point, which does not bode well for the offense. With Reggie Brown also out, the starters against Friday's pre-season game against the New England Patriots are Desean Jackson in Brown's spot and either Hank Baskett or Greg Lewis playing for Curtis. Brown is still nursing a hamstring injury.
The Eagles signed Curtis as a free agent last season. He set career highs with 77 catches for a team-leading 1,110 yards and six touchdowns.
Well there goes the offense. Joe Horn anyone?

There were many people screaming in a different thread that the starters should not have been put at risk for a preseason game, I was just furthering that point. I'm sorry you couldn't understand such a thing.

However, I'd even be fine with seeing how Jackson does on the outside. I'm actually looking forward to it.
