Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson announced Friday during his press conference that defensive tackle Bennie Logan will miss his second straight game due to a groin injury.
Coach Pederson: Bennie Logan (groin) has officially been ruled out for #PHIvsDAL.

It was already going to be a tough task attempting to stop Ezekiel Elliott, but it just got even tougher.
“It’s big. I’ve always been of the next man up mentality. Losing a player like Bennie hurts,” Pederson said.
Beau Allen will again start for Logan and Destiny Vaeao will back him up. The Eagles reacquired Taylor Hart this week after the San Francisco 49ers waived him. He took Ron Brooks’ spot on the roster.
Linebacker Kamu Grugier-Hill has also been ruled out for Sunday.
