Eagles’ security chief Dom DiSandro banned from sidelines during matchup vs. Cowboys

Eagles Security Chiefs Dom DiSandro has been barred from being on the sidelines for Philadelphia’s Week 14 matchp

The Eagles will face the Cowboys without key personnel, as security chief Dom DiSandro has been banned from the sidelines for the Week 14 showdown.

The NFL sent a memo to teams this week after a sideline incident involving the 49ers’ linebacker Dre Greenlaw and the Eagles’ head of security, Dom DiSandro.

“Please ensure that all members of your game-day staff understand that their role does not extend to being involved with game day altercations and that they must refrain from such involvement.”
An already intense game grew chippy after tensions escalated when Greenlaw tackled Eagles receiver DeVonta Smith after the whistle near the Philadelphia sideline.

The late hit drew a 15-yard penalty, and as players from both teams got involved in a mini-scuffle, Eagles security chief Dom DiSandro stepped in between Greenlaw and DeVonta Smith.

While separating the two, DiSandro touched Greenlaw, who took exception and shoved the Eagles’ security before things simmered down.

Greenlaw and DiSandro were ejected, and San Francisco would win 42-19.

Zach Cunningham returns to Eagles practice ahead of critical matchup vs. Cowboys

Talented linebacker Zach Cunningham returns to Eagles practice ahead of critical matchup vs. Cowboys

This summer, Zach Cunningham joined the Eagles as a veteran linebacker who has played exceptionally well when allowed to shine in the middle of a defense.

Cunningham then went from added depth to starting at middle linebacker after Nakobe Dean initially went on injured reserve with a foot injury.

The veteran exited Philadelphia’s Week 12 win against Buffalo with a hamstring injury, and Cunningham missed last week’s loss to the 49ers. He was a limited participant in Wednesday’s practice and now looks to be a full-go on Thursday.

Cunningham has 71 tackles, four passes defensed, and a fumble recovery while starting nine of the Eagles’ 11 games this season.

More importantly, the Philadelphia defense is more efficient and better against the pass when he’s in the lineup.

Eagles’ safety Justin Evans to remain on IR for rest of season after 21 day practice window expires

Justin Evans will remain on injured reserve for the rest of the 2023 NFL season after seeing his 21 day practice window expire.

The Justin Evans experiment is over, as the former Saints safety will see his season end after his 21-day practice window expires.

Philadelphia activated Evans’ 21-day practice window back on Nov. 14, but that 21-day window closed on Tuesday, and Evans will remain on Injured Reserve, ending his season.

Evans was a limited participant his first week back at practice but could not practice the last two weeks.

Signed as a free agent this offseason, Evans started the first four games of the season at safety for the Eagles, logging 15 tackles (nine solo), two passes deflected, and one forced fumble in four games.
