The Philadelphia Eagles' defense suffered a major blow during a 22-10 win over the Green Bay Packers in Sunday's Wild Card playoff clash.

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo, Eagles linebacker Nakobe Dean is out for the remainder of the playoffs due to a torn patellar tendon in his knee and will "likely" miss the start of the 2025 season.

Dean suffered the injury while tackling Packers tight end Tucker Kraft in the second quarter of Sunday's game and was eventually carted off the field.
