7 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles defensive tackle Timmy Jernigan (back) is questionable for Week 1 of the 2018 season. Reports on Jernigan's back surgery surfaced this week, but this is the first report of him potentially missing any actual game time. The recovery period for his particular surgery is four to six months, making Jernigan a candidate to start the season on the Physically Unable to Perform list, which would keep him out for the first six games. It will all depend on the speed at which he recovers, which should become more clear into training camp and the preseason.--David A Marcillo - RotoBaller
