And, as a # 4 RB...better look out, Reno.

DO you think the Eagles will bother carrying 6 WR's? I think that might be a waste of a roster spot unless that 6th can contribute mightily on special teams (like Douglas did a few years back).

NOTES: 'BUCK' UPDATE, DE ADDED 

August 10, 2005
By ZACH BERMAN


BETHLEHEM, Pa.-- Running back Correll Buckhalter's knee contusion, suffered during Friday's practice, may warrant a closer look.

RB Correll Buckhalter is nursing an injury 
Buckhalter has missed practice since sustaining the injury, and head coach Andy Reid said Wednesday that the medical staff is going to recheck the injury to "see if there is not something else in there."

Reid said there is some concern about the injury because of the lack of progression in the recovery.

"It's not coming around as fast as it should have," Reid said. "We are going to check all of those things out and see what the deal is."

Eagles ADD DE

The Eagles signed veteran defensive end Juqua Thomas on Wednesday. Thomas spent four seasons with the Titans, backing up Jevon Kearse for three seasons. In 2003, Thomas recorded four sacks, 17 tackles and a forced fumble.

To make room on the roster for Thomas, the team released receiver Chris Samp. Thomas, wearing jersey number 75, practiced on Wednesday morning.

"He's a good pass rusher and he is stout enough up front to where he can hold his own," Reid said. "We have played against him so we know what he can do."

Perry's Back

Running back Bruce Perry returned to the practice field Wednesday after suffering a concussion on Sunday. He saw extensive action, displaying his toughness by taking a pounding during contact drills.

Injuries


Tackle Jon Runyan suffered a concussion on Tuesday that held him out of practice.

Defensive tackle Darwin Walker is out with the flu.

Safety Sean Considine is still out with the slight separation of the shoulder.

Cornerback Rod Hood was gone with some personal reasons and he comes back today and we will see how he is here.

Guard/center Jamaal Jacksoncontinues to nurse a tricep tear.

Running back Ryan Moats is day-to-day with a concussion.

Defensive tackle Sam Rayburn is getting better from a hyperextended elbow. but still needs a few days before returning.

Wonder what's going on with Buck's knee?

[Eaglez]

Buck's knee is fine. It is actually mutating into a super strong ligament which can sustain impact from nuclear warheads and Corey Simon's fat.

It just needs time to morph. I all due time he will be better than ever.

By the way, since this is an injury thread someone should add TO on it with a bruised ego.

buck's knee is worse than originally thought?....i'm shocked!

What is the deal with Jamaal Jackson?  How do you nurse a tricep tear?  Is this PUP or IR worthy?

It's "go find another team after the cut down to 65 players" worthy. I had high hopes for him. But he's fragile.

Trey Darilek & Dominic Furio will fight for the b/u spot.

Reggie Brown strained his groin today....

how does one have high hopes for someone who wasnt even drafted?

[Wingspan]

why dont we just whack all the WR's and go with 2 TE T-bone sets.

We'd still probably sweep the division.

brown's mom will make sure his groin heals & he gets back to action asap.       

that would be my guess too.
