Due to catastrophic situations, the top player among the Eagles would retire.

Week 18 is eagerly anticipated by the Philadelphia Eagles, who suffered an unexpected defeat to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 17.

Worse, according to the most recent reports, star receiver DeVonta Smith has a leg injury. The playmaker for the Philadelphia Phillies was seen using crutches and a walking boot following the team’s defeat by the Cardinals.

With the postseason starting in less than two weeks, the picture above at the very least raises questions about Smith’s status. Against Arizona, Smith had three receptions for thirty yards.

John Clark of NBC Sports Philadelphia described the situation as “tough to see” in a message posted on X on December 31. “Devonta Smith might sustain a serious injury.”

According to preliminary reports, Smith was hurt while blocking on the play below.

The Eagles have more problems than just a string of bad injuries. After five games, Philadelphia has now dropped four of them.

In addition to killing momentum heading into the postseason, Philadelphia’s loss to Arizona may cost them the NFC East. As the regular season enters its final week, the Eagles have lost control over their divisional destiny.

If Dallas defeats Washington in Week 18, they will win the NFC East. The Eagles now need to defeat the Giants and the Cowboys to lose to the Commanders in order to win the division.

The Eagles, who are ranked fifth going into Week 18, will play the winner of the NFC South on the road in the Wild Card Round.

In Week 18, the Eagles must defeat the Giants, and the Cowboys must lose to the Commanders.
The last offensive sequence, which was draw/draw/short pass, is explained by Nick Sirianni.

The good news is that the Eagles have a big advantage when they play the Giants in the season finale. According to Heavy Sports’ computer predictions, Philly has a 62% chance of winning based on Quarter 4. The Eagles are a four-point favorite over the Giants, according to these projections.

In Week 18, Philadelphia fans will be cheering for Dallas to lose their last game. The Cowboys have a 78% chance of defeating the Commanders, according to these same projections. Dallas is a massive nine-point favorite over Washington, according to the computer.

About Smith’s injury, the Eagles have not yet released any information. One of the few bright spots on a Philadelphia offense that has faltered towards the end has been the wide receiver. In 15 starts this season, Smith has 78 receptions for 1,036 yards and 7 touchdowns.

Following the Cardinals’ defeat, Eagles star A.J. Brown declined to speak with the media.

The Eagles’ locker room is becoming more and more frustrated as the losses keep coming. When the team lost to the Cardinals, an obviously irate A.J. Brown refused to talk to the media.

It is obvious that Brown does not want to exacerbate the situation by expressing his frustration through words. In the upcoming weeks, Brown may face increased pressure if Smith is sidelined due to a leg injury.
