Philadelphia Eagles may get Jernigan back sooner than expected

The Philadelphia Eagles have dealt with an overwhelming amount of injuries so far in 2019, but there is a light at the end of that tunnel. They may be getting a key piece of their defense, Timmy Jernigan, back sooner than expected.

As of late, the last three years to be exact, the Eagles have been a team defined by injuries and the way they’ve overcome them. No unit on the team has been hit as hard as the defensive line. and the secondary.

Through the first month of the season, the Eagles have lost free-agent acquisitions Malik Jackson and Timmy Jernigan to injuries, but a recent social media post from Jernigan has given Eagles fans and his teammates hope that he may return sooner than was originally expected.
