Ingram tore his ACL, the same ACL he tore last year in college, and will require surgery, putting him out for the year.

  • i thought that during this offseason the eagles shouldnt have been that worried about their WRs b/c of their core, and i thought they should have been more aggressive towards TONY GONZLEZ atlanta got him for just a 2nd rounder...

  • i think they will give the guys they have now a shot. but if they don`t work out they may sign a guy who is a free agent now, or someone who gets cut later.
