I’m sure I’m not the only one who had pain in the pit of their stomach when news broke that DeVonta Smith has an MCL sprain and will be missing time. He’s been given the “week to week” designation:
DeVonta Smith (knee sprain) is week-to-week. Eagles expect him to be back sooner than later. Team feels like they can be cautious with him because of how advanced he is as a WR.

Eagles fans have seen players like Jalen Mills fall off the face of the Earth when getting billed with a “week-to-week” injury, though ESPN’s Adam Schefter says that it may only be a two or three week injury.
