Nick Foles left Thursday's preseason game against the New England Patriots with a right shoulder strain.

Foles was hit by Adrian Clayborn in the second quarter and the ball was knocked loose. Ja'Whaun Bentley scooped up the fumble and ran 54 yards for a touchdown.

The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback grabbed his throwing arm as he went to the turf. He was evaluated inside the trainers tent before returning the sideline.

"It was just the shoulder. It just sort of got jarred in a funny way as I was following through," Foles said. "But it feels good. We'll check it out tomorrow more thoroughly."

Doug Pederson said Foles would have played one more series had he not gotten hurt.

Foles is "optimistic" about how things will play out.

"I'm going to do everything I can to get back on the field and hopefully practice the first day we get back practicing [Sunday]," he said, "and be ready to roll."
