The Philadelphia Eagles took a big hit in the third quarter of Sunday's contest against the Washington Redskins. Veteran center Jason Kelce left the game with an apparent abdominal injury, according to a tweet from Eagles Insider:
Dave Spadaro @EaglesInsiderJason Kelce is out with an abdominal injury
Kelce is arguably the team's most valuable offensive lineman, as its high-octane offense revolves around its athletic big men in the trenches. David Molk came in to replace the injured starter.
