Not good. Eagles linebacker Kiko Alonso left Sunday's game against the Cowboys in the second quarter with a left knee injury and did not return. That is the same knee that Alonso missed all of last season after tearing the ACL in it, and there are some reports emerging that Alonso's season is finished. |
Im told Kiko Alonso's season is done. #Eagles

Kiko Alonso will have an MRI tomorrow morning, source said. Can't know anything officially until they see the results.

MRI tomorrow for Kiko Alonso but team likely knows already if ACL sprain with manual testing. Whispers both ways.

Alonso, 24, sat out the entire 2014-2015 season after tearing the ACL in his left knee during the offseason while working out. The 46th overall pick in the 2013 draft, Alonso was superb in his rookie season, finishing third in the league in tackles with 159 .
Alonso is currently in the third year of a four-year $4.3 million contract, and will earn $745, 000 this season.
More details to come...
