Both players were taken to hospital Thursday night after receiving shots to the head/neck area. Williams was injured early in the first quarter, while Maddox went down in late in the fourth.
The Eagles announced Friday that Maddox was diagnosed with a concussion and a neck injury. He was quickly discharged from a local hospital in time to fly back to Philadelphia with the rest of his teammates.
Everything is going well. Appreciate the prayers and get well wishes. God is good. TM

The Eagles came out of Green Bay with a 34-27 victory.
