The Eagles will be without rookie right tackle Jack Driscoll for the remainder of the 2020 NFL season after suffering an MCL injury against the Saints per Mike Garafalo.
#Eagles RT Jack Driscoll will miss the rest of the season with a significant MCL sprain, sources say. The rookie toughed it out to finish the game against the #Saints but further testing showed the full extent of the injury. Tough one for him and the team. He was playing well.

Philadelphia beat the Saints 24-21 without giving up a sack and with Driscoll at right tackle and Jalen Hurts at quarterback.
Driscoll had started two previous games this season and got extended playing time in two others when Johnson was hurt.
Driscoll was originally selected by the Eagles in the fourth round (145th overall) of the 2020 NFL Draft.
On Monday, the Eagles agreed to sign offensive lineman Ross Pierschbacher from Washington’s practice squad.
Pierschbacher was a fifth-round pick of the Football Team in 2019 out of Alabama, playing in five games as a reserve in his rookie season.
Pierschbacher signed with the Football Team’s practice squad after being waived at the end of Training Camp.
