The Philadelphia Eagles will be without one of their most important members on the sidelines for their Sunday Night Football game against the Dallas Cowboys. Defensive coordinator Jim DiSandro has been banned from the Eagles’ sideline for the game, due to a violation of the NFL’s COVID-19 protocols.
DiSandro has been a key part of the Eagles’ success this season, helping to lead the team to a 4-4-1 record and a spot in the NFC East race. He has been with the team since 2018 and has been credited with helping to turn around the defense.
The NFL has not released any details about DiSandro’s violation, but it is believed to be related to the league’s strict COVID-19 protocols. The protocols require that all coaches and staff members wear masks at all times and maintain social distancing when possible.
It is unclear how long DiSandro will be banned from the sidelines, but it could be for the remainder of the season. It is also unclear who will take over his duties while he is away.
The Eagles will have to make do without DiSandro on Sunday night, as they face a tough test against the Cowboys. The Eagles are currently in second place in the division, one game behind the Washington Football Team. A win against the Cowboys would put them in a great position to make a run at the division title.
The Eagles have been one of the surprise teams of the season, and DiSandro has been a big part of that success. His absence will be felt on Sunday night, but the team will have to find a way to make up for it if they want to keep their playoff hopes alive.
