Report: Big V 'Likely' Out Four Games With MCL Sprain

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Eagles' offensive tackle took another hit on Sunday.

Halapoulivaati Vaitai, who is replacing the suspended Lane Johnson at right-tackle, suffered an MCL sprain that will reportedly cost him four games.

On Monday, Pederson listed "Big V" -- who has been playing well over his past few games -- as "week to week" with a Grade 2 MCL sprain.

Johnson's 10-game PED suspension has four games left, meaning the Eagles will potentially be without both players for the next few games.

Allen Barbre and Stefen Wisniewski are expected to start at right tackle and left guard, respectively, on Monday vs. the Packers.
