Eagles head coach Doug Pederson spoke to the media on Wednesday just minutes after the team announced linebacker Kamu Grugier-Hill would be placed on IR. He addressed the situation, and also talked injuries overall and preparing for the Cowboys.
Here’s what the head coach had to say:
Pederson said the linebacker felt some discomfort after the Washington game, and they sent him for an MRI on Monday and it revealed that he “needs to be shut down for a little while”. The head coach pointed to the team’s statement for Grugier-Hill’s plan, and it is to have surgery for a lower lumber disc herniation.
