Kiko Alonso with possible ACL tear, Kendricks injures Hamstring
Though he walked to the locker room under his own power, there are rumors that the Philadelphia Eagles may have just lost Alonso for the entire season.
The injury is to the same leg in which he sustained a torn ACL past year .
Alonso was having a good game and it is unclear how, or when Alonso was injured on Sunday.
Kiko Alonso left the game with a left knee injury with sources reporting a minimal range of motion.
The Eagles traded for Alonso over the off-season, acquiring him in a trade that sent away running back LeSean McCoy.
Alonso also suffered a concussion in practice earlier in the offseason, and missed preseason action with a “nagging” knee injury.
Alonso was on the field for the opener and made a remarkable one-handed interception of Matt Ryan in the team’s loss to the Falcons.
Rookie Jordan Hicks will be the next man up to replace Kiko who played in 66% of snaps against Atlanta. He also missed some crucial time at training camp with tendinitis in the same leg.
This has to be a cause for concern for the Eagles.
If the rumors are true, the injury could be a very costly blow to the Philadelphia Eagles.
