Eagles starting right guard Mekhi Becton will miss the rest of the Giants game with a concussion. He was officially ruled out early in the second quarter.
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. —
Without Becton, the Eagles have second-year player Tyler Steen at right guard in his place. Steen hasn’t played much on offense this season but did play 58 snaps against New Orleans in Week 3 when Becton had to leave early and he played well.The Eagles came into this game without left tackle Jordan Mailata , who was put on IR this week and will miss at least four weeks. So now the Eagles are down two of their five starters on the offensive line.
On the first drive without Becton, the Eagles went 74 yards on 5 plays all on the ground. The big play was a 55-yard run from Saquon Barkley against his former team.Steen actually began training camp as the starting right guard but when he suffered an ankle injury on Day 3, the Eagles put Becton in there and he never lost that job.
