Philadelphia Eagles' left tackle Jason Peters and starting linebacker Jordan Hicks will miss the rest of the season through injury, says coach Doug Pederson.
The pair were injured during Monday's 34-24 win over the Washington Redskins.
Peters sustained a tear in both his medial and anterior cruciate ligaments after being tackled by Redskins defensive tackle Ziggy Hood early in the third quarter - he was immediately ruled out for the remainder of the game.
Hicks left the field after only the second play of the game after he suffered a ruptured Achilles.
Najee Goode and Joe Walker filled in for Hicks against the Redskins, while Halapoulivaati Vaitai is set to take Peters' spot.
The Eagles lead the NFL after seven games - with a record of six wins and one loss.
