Nearly two weeks ago, Brian Westbrook sustained a concussion against the Washington Redskins on Monday Night. Because of that injury, he did not play against the New York Giants, as he was not ready even a week after the injury.

Heading into the Eagles' Sunday night showdown against Dallas, Westbrook was expected to play, according to sources within the locker room. However, those plans have changed, as the Eagles will be without their playmaker.

According to Sunday NFL Countdown, Andy Reid is cautious of Brian Westbrook's injury, which will keep him out against the Dallas Cowboys.

The second straight game missed for Westbrook means receivers DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Maclin will have to be a great deal of the offense just like last week in the victory over New York.
