Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jordan Davis has been placed on IR. An ankle injury suffered by Davis in Week 8’s contest will land him on injured reserve, which means he will miss at least four games. He will be eligible to return to the field in December.
The Eagles’ official Twitter account announced the news on Wednesday.
Davis burst onto the NFL consciousness way back in the 2022 combine, when he became just the third 330-plus pound player to post a sub-five second 40-yard dash (Greg Robinson and Dontari Poe were the others). He leveraged that performance into becoming a first round pick in 2022.
He has played in seven games so far this season, starting five of them. Davis has collected just 14 combined tackles and one pass deflection in his rookie season. He entered the NFL fresh off of a CFP National Championship win with the Georgia Bulldogs.
Stay tuned for more breaking NFL content, including preseason moves, contract updates and more news from every team.
