Safety Nate Allen was sidelined for Fridays practice with a hamstring injury.
This is a concerning development for the Eagles, who lack quality safety depth. Allen exited in the fourth quarter against Detroit with a hamstring injury a couple weeks back and it cost the defense.
Nothings finalized yet, said Allen. Were going to take it day-by-day and see how it feels.
Allen tweaked his left hamstring in practice on Thursday. It was a right hamstring injury that forced him out of the Detroit game.
It is [frustrating], said Allen. But Monday is not out of the picture yet. Source: PhillyMag.com Attached Thumbnails
