Narrative:
During landing on runway 27 at bos, on taxi into the gate, we were notified by an air carrier XXX crew that our left inboard tire was delaminating. Maintenance inspected our aircraft to find that the cap to the tire had come off, and did damage to the brake line, inboard flap, engine pylon and engine. We had no indication during landing rollout (no noise or vibration) that this had happened. The tire was still inflated. Supplemental information from acn 403571: on further inspection we found a damaged flap, engine pylon, and bent first stage inlet compressor blades. We are not sure where the cap was lost either in dtw or bos. Everything was normal in cruise.
