Philadelphia Eagles: 5 most frustrating injuries from 2019 season
By Dan Parzych
Honorable Mention: Jordan Howard
Since there’s no telling whether Jordan Howard will actually suit up at some point over the next few weeks, it only seems fair to mention the running back on this list since this entire situation in general has been frustrating all around to deal with.
After suffering a shoulder injury against his former team in the Chicago Bears at the beginning of November, Howard’s injury only seemed to be minor at first, and the Eagles made it seem like he would only miss a game or two at most.
Instead, Philadelphia fans have patiently been waiting for Howard to return after missing the last five games to provide an extra weapon for Carson Wentz to work with in the backfield.
Acquiring Howard from the Bears last offseason seemed like a no brainer for Eagles since he not only came at a cheap price, but was considered one of the most productive running backs during his three years in Chicago.
Once the 2020 offseason gets underway, it will be interesting to see whether the Eagles make a push to bring Howard back for another year, especially since this season marked the fourth year in a row he found the end zone at least seven times.
