Eagles Center Kelce Out For Year With Knee Injury

PHILADELPHIA -

The Eagles have placed center Jason Kelce on injured reserve, ending his season.

Kelce had surgery Tuesday to repair a torn medial collateral ligament in his right knee. Once that heals, he will have surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament.

Center Steve Vallos was signed to take his spot. Dallas Reynolds will be the starter.

Vallos spent training camp with Philadelphia before he was released as part of the team's final roster cut down. Vallos has started eight games in four seasons with Seattle and Cleveland.

Kelce was injured in Sunday's win over Baltimore.
