Offensive line insurance policy Kenyon Green is out for multiple weeks with a shoulder injury and could miss the rest of the preseason for the Philadelphia Eagles.
With Pro Bowl guard Landon Dickerson expected to be sidelined while recovering from a knee injury, the 24-year-old Green was a candidate to step into a more significant role before the injury put his preseason in jeopardy, ESPN reported Tuesday.
Green, acquired from the Texans in the offseason trade that sent safety CJ Gardner-Johnson to Houston, is viewed as “week-to-week” according to the report.
Green, a first-round pick (15th overall) in the 2022 NFL Draft, spent nearly six weeks on injured reserve last season due to a shoulder injury and missed the entire 2023 season with a torn labrum in his shoulder. That injury was sustained in the preseason.
Dickerson remains optimistic about returning for the Super Bowl champion Eagles’ opener on Sept. 4 against the Dallas Cowboys, according to NFL Network.
