Injury Report for Broncos vs Eagles Showdown

Eagles’ Nakobe Dean Returns to Practice After Injury

Nakobe Dean’s Anticipated Return from Injury

Nakobe Dean marked October 1 on his calendar weeks ago, eagerly awaiting his return to the Philadelphia Eagles practice field. After starting the season on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list due to a torn patellar tendon in his knee, Dean was eligible to practice for the first time on Wednesday. The fourth-year linebacker prepared diligently for his return, ensuring he was mentally and physically ready.

Dean’s Rehabilitation Journey

Despite his injury, Dean maintained a strong connection with the team, attending every practice despite not being able to participate. He focused on learning and understanding Vic Fangio’s defensive schemes more comprehensively during his time on the sidelines. “I’ve been cleared for a while now. I didn’t feel apart from the team,” Dean shared. His efforts have not gone unnoticed by the team.

Importance of Dean in Fangio’s Defense

Eagles’ defensive coordinator Vic Fangio expressed enthusiasm about Dean’s return, highlighting his leadership and performance. “He played great for us last year. You can’t be a leader if you don’t play well,” Fangio remarked. As Dean starts practicing, his impact on the field is highly anticipated.

Team’s Injury Report and Updates

Wednesday’s injury report noted that every active roster player participated in practice except for tight end Dallas Goedert, who was sidelined with a knee injury. The tight end missed a previous game in Kansas City due to a knee issue, though it’s unclear if both injuries are related. He had a notable performance against the Buccaneers with four catches and two touchdowns.
