Foles has minor shoulder strain

-

It looks like the Eagles may have dodged a bullet.

Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles has a minor shoulder strain, and an Eagles source told ESPN he might not miss any playing time and “should be fine.”

Foles suffered the injury during the Eagles’ 37-20 preseason loss to the Patriots on Thursday night when New England defensive end Adrian Clayborn beat offensive tackle Halapouliv­aati Vaitai and hit Foles while he was stepping back to throw, knocking the ball loose.

Erstwhile Eagles starter Carson Wentz is on the verge of returning to 11-on-11 practice, but the team is not sure if he will be ready for the Sept. 6 opener against Atlanta. PATRIOTS: Rookie offensive lineman Isaiah Wynn, taken by the Patriots in the first round with the 23rd pick, suffered a torn Achilles tendon on Thursday against the Eagles, according to reports.

The 6-foot-2, 310-pound tackle was able to limp off the field after the first-half play but later was carted away from the sidelines.

The mother of Gordon’s 3year-old daughter recently won a court order forcing him to pay $6,765 per month in child support beginning Aug. 1. That deadline came and went, and the woman’s lawyer claims Gordon has not paid up.
