Eagles QB Nate Sudfeld to undergo surgery for broken wrist
The injury news on Nate Sudfeld is not positive.
Sudfeld suffered a broken left wrist while breaking a fall following a hit in the second quarter of Thursday’s preseason game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Tennessee Titans. The former Indiana quarterback was placed in an air cast and carted into the locker room after the injury.
Following the game, Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said that Sudfeld had broken his wrist and would undergo surgery on Friday. There is not currently a timetable on the quarterback’s recovery.
Sudfeld has seen action in three games over the past two seasons and even threw a touchdown pass last year. He was 10/18 for 177 yards and a touchdown pass before getting hurt in Thursday’s game.
Sudfeld was expected to be the backup quarterback to Carson Wentz. Cody Kessler and rookie Clayton Thorson are the other quarterbacks on the team’s roster.
