What we’ve come to know, Fletcher Cox was injured during the Eagles Saints game. During the game Cox injured his foot and was forced to miss some time, however, he ended up finishing the game.
ESPN’s Tim McManus reported on Monday, that Fletcher Cox had surgery when the season was over.

It’s par for the course that players use the off season to get surgery to maintain their bodies. Last season, both Alshon Jeffrey and Brandon Graham had surgery following the 2017 season.
Let’s hope that our all-world DT’s wheel is back to normal in the next couple of months. The good news is he’s off the scooter, but right now the belief is that Fletcher Cox should be ready to go in time for training camp.
