Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery played through his team's 20–14 loss to the Saints on Sunday in the NFC Divisional Round playoff game with broken ribs, teammate Lane Johnson told reporters.
Jeffery missed a crucial catch that could have prolonged a Philadelphia comeback. With the Eagles down by six late in the fourth quarter, quarterback Nick Foles was leading a drive downfield. With just over two minutes left on second-and-10, Foles threw the ball to wide receiver Alshon Jeffery. The pass went through Jeffery's hands and Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore picked it off.
He ended the game with five receptions for 63 yards.
