PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- This is good news for Eagles fans.

Darby, 23, was acquired in August by the Eagles in trade with the Buffalo Bills for WR Jordan Matthews and a future third round pick. Darby was the Eagles' No. 1 cornerback, a position where they are very thin.

Patrick Robinson replaced Darby in the Eagles' 30-17 win on Sunday. Second-year CB Jalen Mills also played well on Sunday, recording his first career interception.
