The injuries piled up in the NFC East this season.

The Philadelphia Eagles were the healthiest team in the NFC East, so it's no surprise they won the division title on Sunday in a win over the Cowboys.

The end of the season revealed quite a bit of injury news surrounding the New York Giants. Running back David Wilson may need neck surgery in the offseason, according to Ralph Vacchiano of the New York Daily News. Wilson only played in five games this season because of the injury. The Giants will have a contingency plan in place for Wilson, but even if he gets surgery, they are confident he can be back for the start of the season.

Rueben Randle's knee is also a bit of a wait-and-see situation. He is going to be re-evaluated in two weeks, according to Vacchiano. His health will be particularly important to New York with Hakeem Nicks' potential exit in free agency this offseason.

The Cowboys got better news regarding injured linebacker Sean Lee. He will not need surgery this offseason, according to ESPN Dallas.
