Jeremy Maclin hurt his groin when Nnamdi Asomugha jumped on him after touchdown

Jeremy Maclin Nnamdi Asomugha groin

Jeremy Maclin was listed as limited with a groin injury on Monday after hurting it following the Philadelphia Eagles’ comeback win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, and now we know the cause of the injury.

As many have quipped, the injury was Asomugha’s first hard hit of the season.
