Eagles QB Nick Foles Reportedly OK After Leaving Game With Shoulder Injury

Eagles quarterback Nick Foles will be OK after leaving Thursday's preseason loss to the Patriots, according to a report.

"After tests" the Super Bowl LII MVP is not expected to be out long, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Foles, who left the game early in the second quarter after a strip sack, didn't have a great outing: 3 of 9 for 44 yards. But more important than anything, he appears to be healthy after a scare.

After the game, Foles said he was "optimistic" about the injury.

"It's just the shoulder," Foles said. "It sort of got jarred in a funny way as I was following through. It feels good. We'll check it out tomorrow more thoroughly."

Foles didn't return to the game, but he also never left the sideline, receiving treatment on what the team called a shoulder strain.

With the opener still weeks away, Foles didn't want to speculate on his status for Week 1, but didn't sound like a guy that planned to miss much time.

"I'm not even going to go there," Foles said. "We're just going to live in the moment and sort of go day to day. I'm going to do everything I can to get back on the field and hopefully practice the first day we get back practicing and be ready to roll."
