The Eagles will be without linebacker Nakobe Dean for multiple weeks after the second-year star suffered a foot injury in the Week 1 win over the Patriots.

Dean had seven tackles in the Eagles’ season-opening win over New England, and Howie Roseman has already made moves to add depth, per Adam Schefter.
