Eagles down to Dameon Pierce, Jaydon Blue after Carson Steele injury

The Philadelphia Eagles found themselves in a challenging situation on Sunday when running back Carson Steele suffered an arm injury during a catch-and-run, forcing him to leave the game. This left the already thin backfield with only Dameon Pierce and Jaydon Blue as available options to fill the role. The Eagles had already been without star running back Saquon Barkley due to a hamstring injury, and now they would be without both Steele and Barkley for the remainder of the game.

With Tank Bigsby also on injured reserve, Philadelphia found themselves with limited flexibility in their running back rotation. Should Steele not return to the field, both Pierce and Blue would be forced to shoulder the workload, which would include rushing attempts, receiving assignments, and even protecting their teammates.
