[Eagles] Eagles RB Brian Westbrook Out For Next Three Weeks

The Philadelphia Eagles, and more importantly Brian Westbrook, received terrific news on Wednesday when specialists in Pittsburgh said that the running back has an excellent chance to make a full recovery after suffering two concussions in a 20-day span. What that means for Westbrook and his employer moving forward this season remains to be seen, but coach Andy Reid said you can rule him out for the next three games and after that, it's up to medical personnel. "Right now nothing for this week, we're backing off this week just letting him rest,'' Reid said in his press conference this afternoon. "This is on the doctor's orders there: back off, let him rest, that's the plan the doctor had for him. Next week he can start going to meetings and some things. We'll see how he feels as he goes."

Hes a good player but come on for his health's sake he needs to stop and actually recover. I can already smell the late season injury AGAIN.

An injured player is no good to anyone even themselves. Give it a rest Westbrook...get healthy for once.
