PHILADELPHIA (AP) -Eagles center Jamaal Jackson tore a knee ligament in Sunday’s win over Denver and will miss the rest of the season.
Jackson anchored an offensive line that has been shuffled numerous times because of several injuries to starters. He made his 71st consecutive start and had been Philadelphia’s only offensive player to play every snap until he got hurt in the first half.
Coach Andy Reid said an MRI exam on Monday revealed Jackson had a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. Right guard Nick Cole replaced Jackson at center, and Max Jean-Gilles took Cole’s spot.
Injuries have plagued the Eagles’ offensive line since training camp. The projected starters didn’t play a single down together.
