Xavier Woods collapsed Zach Ertz’s rib cage early in the first quarter, and he played 14 more minutes in before leaving 3 minutes, 3 seconds into the second quarter clutching his left side. He visited the locker room, and presumably the pharmacy, came back to the sideline, had his ribs wrapped, and returned to the game with 1:52 to play in the second quarter. He finished with four catches for 28 yards.

The story said after the game, Ertz could barely pull his shirt over his head, and he struggled to put his coat on, and he had so much trouble speaking that he wouldn’t conduct his postgame press conference. It doesn't sound great for Ertz in what is a meaningful game for the Eagles in Week 17. Goedert, who had a career day with over 90 yards and a TD, is at least worth grabbing as a backup plan.

Complicating matters is the continued absence of Nelson Agholor, the Eagles’ other starting wide receiver. He missed the Giants game with a knee injury he suffered in the Dolphins game a week ago, and Pederson said there’s no guarantee he’ll be ready to play against the Redskins.

“That one’s still up in the air,” he said. “We’ve just got to continue to work through his injury and where he’s at and continue to have conversations with him and see where he is prior to this week.”

Agholor is dealing with a knee injury. Whiteside appeared to grab his hamstring in overtime but it looks like he'll be a go in Week 15. Agholor, Whiteside and Ward are the Birds top-three WRs right now, but it's possible the Eagles again go with three TEs meaning Goedert and Perkins could be more involved.

Eagles WR DeSean Jackson is having surgery to repair a core muscle injury tomorrow, sources say. Based on the timing, it appears unlikely he’ll play again this season.

This turned ugly real fast since this morning, but it also shouldn't be shocking as this seemed like the logical ending to this story when Jackson opted to rehab the injury vs. have surgery after Week 2. WR is a big weakness on this team and it's bad news for Carson Wentz. Geodert should continue to see WR3-like targets.

Doug Pederson said he expects Alston Jeffery and Dallas Goedert to play Thursday against the Packers.

It's about as must-win as you can have in Week 4 as the Eagles look to avoid a 1-3 start, so, having Goedert and Jeffery will certainly help Carson Wentz and the offense.

The Eagles also think Jackson will miss Week 4's game. Word in Philly is Jackson is deal with a core issue and he's hoping to rehab the injury and return to the lineup without surgery.

The Eagles suffered through a plethora of injuries on Sunday during their Week 2 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Wide receivers DeSean Jackson (groin) and Alshon Jeffery (calf) quickly joined tight end Dallas Goedert (calf), who suffered a pre-game injury, on the Eagles’ sideline in the first half.

Jackson tried to return to the game but lasted two plays and left and didn't return. Perhaps it's a good sign he tried to go, but as the story said, he's a key element to the offense because of his deep threat ability and is potentially the biggest loss of the three if the injuries are multiple weeks.

Meanwhile Jeffery missed the final three quarters of the game and it's not clear how serious his injury is. If these guys miss extended time, Hollins, Arcega-Whiteside and Agholor are next up. Agholor is a potential deep-threat fill-in for Jackson but isn't on the same level.
