Eagles Rumors

Ellis Hobbs wanted to walk off the field on his own last night, but medical personnel wisely would not let him try.  Hobbs had X-Rays in the locker room which were negative.  Full movement and feeling in his extremities.Hobbs has a history of neck injuries.  It’s impossible to know for sure, but at this point you have to wonder if that could be the last hit he’ll take in his career.

Announced today is the signing of TE Cornelius Ingram to the practice squad.  The Eagles had a spot there after the Colts claimed recently demoted Joique Bell.

Ingram will remain a long shot to ever contribute significantly.

It appears that Nate Allen is going to be fine for next week’s important game against the Redskins.  His injury looked scary yesterday, but after the game Andy Reid reported it as a neck strain.  Allen said after the game he’d be ready to go next week.  When the MRI results are made available (likely tomorrow) we’ll know for sure.

Max Jean-Gilles had concussion symptoms.  We’ll learn more today, but if that is confirmed he’ll need to go through the procedures that we’ve all become very familiar with before he’s allowed back on the field.

DeSean Jackson had a huge game yesterday, and is clearly recovered from his concussion problems.

Jerome Harrison was active for the game yesterday and was handed the ball twice for six yards.  It was his first action as an Eagle.

Dmitri Patterson has been made the starting RCB.  Ellis Hobbs has been demoted after a terrible start to the season and one final disaster in Tennessee.
