  • Jeremy Maclin & Dennis Pitta Out for the Year

    Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jeremy Maclin tore his right ACL during Saturday's practice, the team announced.

    According to multiple reports, the injury occurred during 7-on-7 drills. In the early part of camp, players are still practicing in no-contact drills without pads.

    Maclin stayed on the ground for several minutes while the club's medical staff attended to his lower leg.

    After getting to his feet, Maclin had to be helped to a motorized cart.





    OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Baltimore Ravens tight end Dennis Pitta is undergoing surgery and will miss the entire 2013 season after dislocating his hip in practice Saturday, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

    The injury occurred when Pitta collided with safety James Ihedigbo in the back of the end zone vying for a pass from Joe Flacco. Pitta lay prone for several minutes before being carted off the field.

    The Super Bowl champions begin defense of their title on the road against the Broncos on Sept. 5.

    Pitta was preparing for his fourth season with Baltimore. The 6-foot-4, 245-pounder caught 61 passes for 669 yards and seven touchdowns last season.
