Trent Cole Out 3 Weeks With Calf Strain

Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reports that the Eagles DE Trent Cole suffered a Grade 2  calf strain which should force him to miss around three weeks.

“There are fears Trent Cole is done for the year but I’m hearing an MRI showed a Grade 2 calf strain, which prob puts him out 3 weeks,” reports Glazer.

While the fact that he’ll be able to return in a couple of weeks can be seen as good news, it will still be a big loss to a defense that’s really struggling right now. The good news is that the Jason Babin and Cullen Jenkins have played great so far but they now have very limited depth on their defensive line.

Philly will be on the road against the Bills and Redskins in the next two weeks so it doesn’t exactly get much easier for them.
