The Eagles will be missing a major part of their Defense on Sunday Night when they face the Dallas Cowboys. Doug Pederson announced in his Friday press conference that DT Bennie Logan will miss his second consecutive game due to a groin injury.
Coach Pederson: Bennie Logan (groin) has officially been ruled out for #PHIvsDAL.

LB Kamu Grugier-Hill has also been ruled out for Sunday.

Beau Allen and undrafted rookie Destiny Vaeao filled Logan’s boots against the Vikings, but the birds bought in reenforcement during the past week, re-acquiring Taylor Hart, who had previously been waived and signed by former coach Chip Kelly. Hart was signed to the vacant roster spot left by the injured Ron Brooks.
Linebacker Kamu Grugier-Hill will also be sidelined on Sunday. The former Patriots linebacker has 3 tackles this season.
Although losing Logan is a notable setback for the Eagles, the birds have enough rotational firepower to re-balance the scales and make life difficult for the Cowboys Offensive Line.
