Kenny Pickett exits Eagles game vs. Cowboys with a rib injury

The Eagles turned to Kenny Pickett to help secure the NFC East, and for three quarters, the former Pitt star did just that, carving up the Cowboys early on and finishing the first half with a 24-7 lead.

Pickett’s afternoon could be over after he reaggravated his rib injury on a late hit following a touchdown pass that was overturned.

Pickett will finish with 10-15 passing for 143 yards (9.5 avg) and one touchdown. Tanner McKee entered the game for Pickett and has gone 2-3 passing for 29 yards, including a 20-yard strike to A.J. Brown for a touchdown.
