Eagles DT Carter out after procedure, sources say

Key Highlights

• He wants to be as close to 100% as possible for the playoff run, the sources added. Carter was not his normally impactful self in last Friday's 24-15 loss to the Chicago Bears -- a game in which Philadelphia yielded 281 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.
• He took responsibility postgame, saying "there were some runs I got drove back or I wasn't making no effect on the play."When asked for an explanation, Carter said, "It's my problems to deal with.
• I ain't gonna tell everybody what I'm going through."Carter, 24, has been dealing with shoulder issues for much of the season.
• He missed the first three practices of training camp with a shoulder injury.
• He has been in noticeable discomfort at times during the season, including Week 2 against the Kansas City Chiefs when he said he had "a little bit of a stinger.""He does have a shoulder issue," defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said this week.
