Jordan Davis Placed On Injured Reserve

Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jordan Davis (ankle) was placed on injured reserve due to a high-ankle sprain suffered in Week 8. The first-round rookie has been impressive this season as a member of a strong defensive line. While the Eagles have been stellar on defense, the loss of Davis will surely hamper their ability to stop the run. The former Georgia Bulldog will miss this Thursday's game against the Houston Texans, and his next opportunity to suit up will be in Week 13 against the Tennessee Titans. Philadelphia will hope to adequately limit their opponents' rushing attacks in his absence.
