Darby had an air cast on his right ankle as he was carted off the field and into the tunnel.

The Eagles acquired Darby during training camp in a trade with Buffalo and immediately made him a starter opposite Jalen Mills.
The Eagles entered Sunday’s game with just three active cornerbacks active, though they did end up winning against the Washington Redskins, 30-17.
