The second quarter has not been nearly as friendly for the Eagles, and things got worse after Nick Foles threw a pass that was intercepted by Saints’ Marshon Lattimore. First, you had Rasul Douglas getting carted off the field with an ankle injury.
And then, on what should have been a three-and-out, the Saints moved the sticks thanks to a fake punt, which also resulted in Fletcher Cox going down. He was able to leave the field under his own power, and could maybe return.
As if things couldn’t actually get worse for the Eagles defense, two plays later, Michael Bennett went down forcing another injury timeout.
