The Philadelphia Eagles are facing uncertainty after back-to-back losses, and the sudden retirement of Za'Darius Smith has left their EDGE group even lighter.
Smith had 1.5 sacks in five games, leading the room in that category. The current group of EDGE rushers, including Jalyx Hunt, Joshua Uche, Azeez Ojulari, and Patrick Johnson, have just one sack this season.
