Ronald Darby To Miss Time
5 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles cornerback Ronald Darby (hip) will miss time with a hip flexor injury, according to head coach Doug Pederson. Rasul Douglas will move into a starting role as a result. It's unknown how much time Darby will miss, but it comes at a bad time as the Eagles can clinch the AFC East with a win over the Giants in Week 17. Darby could also be in danger of sitting out the wild-card round if the Eagles get into the tournament. Either way, it's bad news for an already weak secondary, although they stepped up to the plate in the 17-9 win over Dallas in Week 16. Darby's absence this weekend will be good news for Sterling Shepard and quarterback Daniel Jones, who torched the Redskins soft secondary in Week 16.
