Eagles
Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Nakobe Dean (foot) has been diagnosed with a Lisfranc sprain. According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, the second-year defender will see a foot specialist to determine the steps of his recovery, but he is expected to be placed on Injured Reserve. Dean called signals for the Eagles' defense to begin the season. He has played in five games this season, posting 30 total tackles and half of a sack. The 2022 second-round pick is now likely to miss at least the next four games. Nicholas Morrow should see extra playing time in his absence.

Nakobe Dean Ruled Out For Rest Of Week 9
Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Nakobe Dean (foot) won't return to Sunday's NFC East clash with the Dallas Cowboys. The 2022 third-round pick entered Week 9 ranked fifth on the team in tackles despite missing over a month due to injury. Fortunately, the Eagles are off in Week 10, so Dean could be back for the showdown with the Chiefs in Week 11, assuming the issue isn't severe.

Nakobe Dean Nearing Return
Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Nakobe Dean (foot) was activated from the injured reserve list on Tuesday. Dean had his 21-day practice window opened up, and he'll be able to return to game action as soon as this week. The young linebacker has been out since suffering a foot injury in Philadelphia's season opener against the New England Patriots. It remains to be seen if he will suit up in Week 6 against the New York Jets. But his return to play is on the horizon, which would give the Eagles an added boost on defense.

Nakobe Dean Placed On Injured Reserve
Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Nakobe Dean (foot) is being placed on Injured Reserve after suffering a foot injury in the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots. The second-year linebacker out of the University of Georgia played in all 17 games last season as a rookie but was utilized primarily on special teams. Now, he'll miss at least the next four games. The Eagles signed Nicholas Morrow to its active roster and Rashaan Evans to its practice squad in a corresponding move.

Nakobe Dean Expected To Miss Multiple Weeks
Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Nakobe Dean (foot) is expected to miss multiple weeks with a foot injury that he suffered in the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots on Sunday, according to sources. Dean will not require surgery and should be back with plenty of time to spare in the 2023 season, although a stint on Injured Reserve isn't being ruled out. The 22-year-old was seen wearing a walking boot after the game and could be out through Week 5 in a worst-case scenario. Until Dean is able to return, Christian Elliss and Nolan Smith should see more playing time in the middle of the Eagles defense, starting this Thursday night to kick off Week 2 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Nakobe Dean Ready for a Heavy Workload in Week 1
Eagles linebacker Nakoke Dean is poised for a big game in his debut as Philadelphia's every-down middle linebacker. Dean was drafted in the third round out of Georgia in 2022, and he sat most of the season, accumulating just five tackles in 38 snaps, as the Eagles had two reliable starters in T.J. Edwards and Kyzir White. Both Edwards and White departed in free agency, leaving the job to Dean. The Eagles hoped Nicholas Morrow would compliment him on the inside, but Morrow played so poorly in training camp that he was cut before the season started. Dean is by far the best off-ball linebacker on the team and the one the coaches have faith in. He will get the vast majority, if not all, of the snaps against the New England Patriots. The Patriots run the ball frequently, and they have a strong running back room they will rely on, so Dean is in line for a lot of tackle opportunities.

Nakobe Dean Practicing In Full At Rookie Minicamp
Philadelphia Eagles rookie linebacker Nakobe Dean (chest) has been a full participant during the team's rookie minicamp. Dean fell all the way to the third round in this year's draft because of concerns about his chest injury. He has first-round potential, but he missed all of the pre-draft workouts. The 21-year-old from Georgia was cleared to resume football activities last week and will have a chance to play significant snaps for the Eagles defense in his first year in the NFL. Dean was the leader of the best defense in college last year. He is on the small side for a linebacker, but his speed and ability to diagnose plays should help him overcome that if he can stay healthy.
