Philadelphia Eagles rookie WR DeVonta Smith set to miss 2-3 weeks with sprained MCL, sources say

PHILADELPHIA -- Eagles rookie wide receiver DeVonta Smith is expected to miss two to three weeks with a sprained MCL, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday.

Smith underwent an MRI on Sunday that revealed the knee injury.

The Eagles are not expressing much concern about Smith, who is listed as week to week on the team's injury report, painting his absence from practice as precautionary.

The injury occurred during practice Saturday night, when Smith lunged toward the ground to try to haul in a low pass from quarterback Jalen Hurts.
