PHILADELPHIA -- There aren't many players more respected in the Philadelphia Eagles locker room than Nakobe Dean. When the linebacker got carted off the field with a knee injury against the Green Bay Packers in the NFC wild-card round, his teammates could only rally for him -- knowing all Dean has been through.

Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Nakobe Dean was carted off the field in the Wild Card game and has now received an unfortunate injury update.

Dean, a starting linebacker, went down late in the second quarter and is out for the rest of the playoffs after a fine season for the Eagles. The next man up is Oren Burks.
