Nakobe Dean
LB - Philadelphia Eagles
2024 Outlook
The Eagles placed Nakobe Dean on injured reserve.
Fantasy Impact
Dean is dealing with a Lisfranc sprain. He will have to miss at least the Eagles next four games after this move. He'll be first eligible to return in Week 15 against the Seahawks.
Eagles LB Nakobe Dean has been diagnosed with a Lisfranc sprain. He is expected to see a specialist and could land on IR.
Fantasy Impact
This is the second time this season that Dean has dealt with a foot injury. The young linebacker missed the start of the season with a foot injury and is now slated to likely miss more time with a Lisfranc sprain. Dean and the Eagles will have to wait on more information from a specialist before determining the best course of action.
The Eagles have activated LB Nakobe Dean from injured reserve.
Fantasy Impact
Dean is set to make his return Sunday against the Jets after logging a full practice on Friday. Fantasy managers should expect the Eagles’ to work him back into their rotation at linebacker.
Nakobe Dean (foot) has been designated to return from IR and his 21-day practice window is officially open.
Fantasy Impact
The Eagles were relying on Dean to be their general in the middle of the field coming into the season, but he hasn't been able to do that thanks to a foot injury that he suffered in Week 1 that landed him on IR. Now, he's been designated to return and his 21-day practice window is open, meaning the team will have three weeks to activate him to the active roster. He should be back very soon, which will be great for an already-elite Philadelphia defense moving forward.
Nakobe Dean (foot) has been placed on Philadelphia's injured reserve.
Fantasy Impact
Dean suffered a foot injury of some kind in Sunday's win over the Patriots, and the team is now placing him on injured reserve while he recovers. He will be out for the next four weeks at the minimum, which is tough for an Eagles' defense that relies on him to wear the green dot and be the field general. Philadelphia has signed Nicholas Morrow and Rashaan Evans to try to make up for the second-year linebacker's absence.
