- The team initially listed him as questionable to return before downgrading his status to out after halftime.
- Backup tackle Fred Johnson took over at right tackle and has filled in on multiple occasions this season.
- It marks the second straight game Johnson has left with a lower-leg issue, after an ankle injury against Green Bay on Nov. 10 that he later played through.
- This latest setback follows earlier Week 3 and Week 4 injuries (stinger and shoulder), renewing concern over protection continuity for Philadelphia’s offense.
