The defensive Tackle of the Philadelphia Eagles, Jalen Carter, has caused concerns about his health before the Super Bowl by losing his availability of media on Wednesday due to a disease.
At least, it is a minor reason for concern for the Eagles before Kansas City bosses face Sunday in New Orleans.
Carter is a central part of the defense of the Eagles and if it is more than completely healthy to compete, it would be a massive blow for the Nick Sirianni team.
The Eagles will have more details about Carter's well -being later on Wednesday when they publish the practice report. But the rest of his Eagles team appeared in the open session looking towards Sunday's confrontation.
The 23 -year -old is in his second season with the Eagles, but has already been established as one of Sirianni's key men.
Speaking on Monday night after the arrival of his team to Louisiana, Carter was in a good mood to face the field marshal of the Patrick Mohamses bosses.

'If we do that or take it out of your game, I think we are going to have a good game.
