Isaac Seumalo is an interesting prospect on the Eagles’ roster. Sometimes, he looks like a decent offensive lineman and just simply does his job. Other times, you hear his name far too often as he continues to pile on mistake after mistake. Week 2’s performance is best described as the latter.

According to Pro Football Focus, Isaac Seumalo was the worst-graded offensive lineman in all of professional football this week. Yes, out of 191 linemen, Seumalo turned in the worst performance. That’s truly a pathetic feat if we’re honest.

And considering that the Eagles offensive line is held to a high standard, that’s an awful look for the recently extended lineman. This is a season where keeping the quarterback healthy is essential, and Seumalo has not done an excellent job of doing so. There’s no Stefen Wisniewski ready to take over if Seumalo fails to upgrade his game. So he needs to get it together quickly.
