Reed Blankenship says he’s feeling 100 percent after surgery to repair groin injury

The Eagles signed Reed Blankenship to a one-year contract extension on Monday. The move keeps him in Philadelphia for two more years while keeping him out of restricted free agency.

Blankenship saw his play decline down the stretch. On Tuesday, the safety revealed that he dealt with a groin injury late in the 2023 season and told reporters that he had surgery to repair the issue.

“I’m pretty much 100 percent back to normal, and it feels good now not being as sore anymore like I did this past season dealing with it,” Blankenship said via Brooks Kubena of TheAthletic.com. “Now, I’m ready to go and excited to show what I can do.”

Blankenship started all 15 games he played last season and led the Eagles with 113 tackles, three interceptions, 11 passes defensed, and a fumble recovery.
