00:00You know who got re-upped this all season too?

00:01Landon Dickerson making a lot of money.

00:03He looked like he might be down for the entire season due to a practice at Lincoln Financial Field that happened late.

00:09Step on somebody else's foot there, twist up the knee, and away you go.

00:11But Ian Rappaport tweeted yesterday, he was Pro Bowl guard Landon Dickerson who suffered a meniscus injury on Sunday night.

00:17He's having minor knee surgery in the coming days per me and Mike Garofalo.

00:21He's considered week to week with the goal of being available to begin the regular season.

00:26Best news you could possibly have for Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley, one of the best guards in football.

00:32Looked like he might be down for the year or six to eight months.

00:35Looks like he might only be week to week here.

00:36And I wouldn't be surprised if you see him Thursday night versus the Dallas Cowboys to open the season at Lincoln Financial Field, Joe.

00:43That should surprise nobody because anybody who understands the history of Landon Dickerson,

00:49it goes back to his final season there at Alabama, I believe, when he suffered a season-ending knee injury at Bama there.

01:00And then he wasn't able to participate in any of the pre-draft stuff or anything really with the first summer with the team.

01:08And then, of course, last year, Donnie, he was pulled in the game in the second half of the NFC Championship game.

01:14He was limited in practices right up until the Super Bowl, and yet, yeah, he managed to play, didn't he?

01:22And he played extremely well.

01:23So this is about as tough a dude as you get.

01:26And the fact that he's been dealing with injuries like this now his entire career,

01:31and he still figures out a way to avoid the big injury, kudos to this guy.

01:36This guy is a warrior, and it goes to show you exactly what that offensive line of the Eagles.

01:43Yeah, that's going to be a very interesting group this year.
