 Westbrook Suffers Concussion -- Tue Oct 27 8:00 am --
Week 8 Status In Question | With 7 minutes and 3 seconds left in the first quarter of the Eagles' 27-17 win over the Redskins, Westbrook was motionless on the field for several minutes after taking an accidental knee to the back of the neck from Redskins linebacker London Fletcher. Eventually, Westbrook moved his legs and sat up and then stood up. He was immediately walked to the Eagles' locker room. Within minutes, it was announced in the press box that Westbrook had suffered a concussion. Such a quick public diagnosis is rare for this team. That told everyone, right there, how clear-cut the injury was. How bad it is remains unknown. So much about concussions remains unknown. The good thing is, Westbrook has no known concussion history. The bad thing is, every concussion is different and every concussion sufferer is different. (Daily News)
FF Today's Take: We'll have to wait for the official word from the Eagles but all Westbrook owners should have Plan B in place as the Eagles starting RB could be out for some time. Expect to see more of rookie LeSean McCoy and more use of the "Wildcat" formation with Michael Vick.
