Avonte Maddox is Back in Philly
Second year cornerback Avonte Maddox took a nasty, accidental hit from teammate Andrew Sendejo last night and had to come out of the game late in the fourth quarter on a stretcher.
According to Ian Rapoport, he’s back in Philly this morning:
#Eagles CB Avonte Maddox, who had movement in all his extremities late last night after a friendly fire hit from teammate Andrew Sendejo, flew home with the team last night. He was sent to a local hospital, but was discharged quickly enough to return to Philly. A good sign.

The Eagles confirmed that Maddox had movement in his extremities. Miles Sanders also told reporters that Maddox was joking with teammates while being stretchered off the field.
And literally 30 seconds ago, he tweeted this:
Everything is going well. Appreciate the prayers and get well wishes. God is good. 🙏🏽
