Top Zack Baun News

  • Eagles' Zack Baun: Exits with back injury

    Baun (back) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Giants.

    Baun exited the second half of Sunday's game with a back injury. Smael Mondon will fill in at inside linebacker opposite Jeremiah Trotter while Baun receives further medical evaluation to determine if he can return to the contest.

  • Eagles' Zack Baun: Leading tackler in loss

    Baun recorded nine tackles (two solo) and a pass defensed during Monday's 38-21 loss versus the Cowboys.

    Dallas' offense found a ton of success on the ground in Week 7, and its 38 rush attempts created plenty of tackling opportunities for Baun. He now has nine-plus tackles in four of his six games in 2026. He figures as a high-floor IDP option in some formats heading into a Week 8 tilt at Washington.

  • Eagles' Zack Baun: Logs six tackles against Carolina

    Baun registered six tackles (four solo) and a pass defense during the Eagles' 25-14 loss to the Panthers in Week 6.

    Baun was one of three Eagles players to play all 79 defensive snaps, and his six combined tackles were tied for third-most on the team behind Arnold Ebiketie (nine) and Andrew Mukuba (eight). Through five regular-season games, Baun has accumulated 42 tackles (22 solo) and four pass defenses, and he is on track to crack 100-plus tackles for a third consecutive year.

  • Eagles' Zack Baun: Exits league's concussion protocol

    Baun (concussion) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

    Baun logged a full practice Friday and passed an evaluation from an independent neurologist, which is enough for the seventh-year pro to exit the NFL's concussion protocol and return from a one-game absence. His return means Jeremiah Trotter will likely revert to a rotational role at linebacker behind Baun and Jihaad Campbell.

  • Eagles' Zack Baun: Limited at practice Wednesday

    Baun (concussion) was limited during practice Wednesday.

    Baun didn't suit up in the Week 4 loss to the Rams. If he can't get back on the field for the Week 5 meeting with the Jaguars, Jeremiah Trotter should continue to see an increase in snaps.

  • Eagles' Zack Baun: Sidelined against Rams

    Baun (concussion) won't play in Sunday's game against the Rams.

    Baun suffered a concussion in the loss to the Bears in Week 3. He didn't practice during the week and has since been ruled out, meaning his next opportunity to suit up will come in Week 5 in Jacksonville. Without Baun on the field, Jeremiah Trotter is in line to start against Los Angeles.

  • Eagles' Zack Baun: Absent from practice again Thursday

    Baun (concussion) did not practice Thursday.

    Baun sustained a concussion in the loss to the Bears in Week 3. He missed practice for a second consecutive day, so things don't look promising regarding his availability for Sunday's game against the Rams. If Baun is ultimately ruled out in Week 4, Jeremiah Trotter could be more involved.

  • Eagles' Zack Baun: DNP Wednesday

    Baun (concussion) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.

    Baun suffered a concussion in the Eagles' Week 3 loss to the Bears. The linebacker has entered the league's five-step concussion protocol and will need to be cleared by an independent neurologist to upgrade his practice participation and suit up for Sunday's game.

  • Eagles' Zack Baun: Limited production in victory

    Baun recorded four total tackles (two solo) during Sunday's 24-20 win over Tennessee.

    Baun matched his season low in tackles from the 2025 campaign Sunday, but he was still on the field for all 53 of the team's defensive snaps in the contest. He has now compiled 16 total tackles (nine solo) and two passes defensed over two games this season. The linebacker will likely be more involved against the Bears on Monday Night Football in Week 3.

  • Eagles' Zack Baun: Big game in win

    Baun finished with 12 tackles (seven solo) and two pass breakups in Sunday's 24-22 victory over the Commanders.

    The inside linebacker also played on all 70 of Philadelphia's defensive snaps. Two years ago, Baun was a First Team All-Pro, and last year, he recorded 123 tackles (64 solo), including 3.5 sacks, seven pass breakups, including two interceptions, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in the regular season. One of the league's best defenders is off to a similar start in 2026.

  • Eagles' Zack Baun: Set to lead defense

    Coach Vic Fangio says Baun will sport the green dot for the Eagles' defense during the 2026 season, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Nakobe Dean was the primary on-field playcaller for the Eagles' defense in 2025, an honor that now belongs to Baun. The 2024 first-team All-Pro and 2025 Pro Bowler was ranked No. 45 on the NFL's Top 100 players of 2026 and will carry the responsibility associated with that as the Eagles attempt to reach a third Super Bowl in five years.
