Through two games in the NFL season, the proud Philadelphia Eagles defense has amassed just two whole sacks, and only one has come from the once-vaunted defensive line.
Philadelphia has one of the most talented rosters in the NFL, but the defensive line seemingly can’t catch a break this year. Just an eighth of the way through the season, the Eagles have already lost defensive tackles Malik Jackson for the year and Tim Jernigan for several games, at least. The series of unfortunate events have left the Philadelphia defensive line as one of the shallowest for the NFC East contenders.
