Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Malik Jackson is expected to miss the rest of the season with a Lisfranc injury in his left foot, NFL Network reported Tuesday.

The 29-year-old veteran suffered the injury during his Eagles debut on Sunday, a season-opening victory against the Washington Redskins.

He will have surgery next week, per the report.

A Pro Bowl selection with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2017 and a Super Bowl champion with the Denver Broncos in the 2015 season, Jackson signed with the Eagles in March after his release from the Jaguars.

He was credited with one tackle and played 34 snaps in Sunday’s 32-27 win before being carted off the field in the fourth quarter.

Jackson started 42 of his 48 games with the Jaguars (2016-18) and 24 of 62 games with the Broncos (2012-15), recording 32.5 sacks and 86 quarterback hits. He was Denver’s fifth-round pick in 2012 out of Tennessee.
