Andy Reid’s Monday press conference was a predictably dour affair. Then again, that’s the case after wins.

The Eagles coach updated the team’s injury situation following Sunday’s loss to the 49ers and it wasn’t pretty. Reid confirmed that defensive tackle Antonio Dixon is likely out for the year with a torn triceps.

He also confirmed the team’s best defensive player Trent Cole will be out with a “fairly significant” injury, but we knew that already.

The worst news was really about starting left tackle Jason Peters. He hurt his hamstring in the fourth quarter and Reid said the injury was also “fairly significant.” That indicates a multiple week injury.

Peters’ absence will further shake up an offensive line that has been trying to find its footing early in the year. King Dunlap will likely replace Peters.

UPDATE: Dunlap confirmed he will be the starter for at least two weeks.
