Carter is now week-to-week as Philadelphia monitors his recovery ahead of the playoff push

Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter will miss Monday night’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers after undergoing a procedure on both shoulders this past Monday, sources told Adam Schefter. Carter is currently undergoing treatment on both shoulders, and his return is being considered week-to-week.

Carter, a key piece of the Eagles’ defensive line, reportedly wanted to be as close to 100% as possible heading into the playoff stretch. The team will monitor his recovery closely, with no definitive timetable for his return at this point.

This development is a significant blow to Philadelphia’s interior defensive front, as Carter’s presence has been instrumental in both run defense and pass rush throughout the season.
