The Philadelphia Eagles have dealt a few injuries since training camp kicked off and the team may have suffered another setback, this time to Andre Dillard.
Second-year left tackle Andre Dillard reportedly suffered a biceps injury during practice according to Derrick Gunn.
Sources tell me Andre Dillard suffered a biceps injury in practice today … they’re hoping there’s not a tear in it …. he was already dealing with a shoulder strain

The report was confirmed by Jeff McLane of The Inquirer.

The seriousness of the injury is still unknown, but the Eagles’ have been using Jordan Mailata at left tackle in his place. Dillard has struggled at times during the camp and the presence of Jason Peters at the right guard could get even bigger if the former Washington State star is forced to miss an extended amount of time.
The Eagles’ could switch Peters back to left tackle and allow Matt Pryor or Jack Driscoll to start at guard.
