Eagles May Sit DT Mike Patterson For Two Weeks After Suffering A Seizure

Discussion in 'Philadelphia Eagles' started by BigBlueBruiser, Aug 7, 2011.

  1. Philadelphia defensive tackle Mike Patterson hasn't returned to the practice field, and, according to sources close to the club, probably won't for awhile. They said the club prefers to proceed slowly with Patterson, who last week collapsed after suffering a seizure, rather than rush him back to practice. The Eagles' plans run contrary to what Patterson's agent, J.R. Rickert, said late last week. In a statement, Rickert said he anticipated that his client would be cleared to resume "normal team activities within a few days." The Eagles may sit Patterson the next two weeks, they said, as a precaution.

    I'm surprised that he is even allowed to come back this soon.
