DeSean Jackson Aggravates Groin Injury

The injuries keep mounting for Philadelphia. Not only are Donovan McNabb and Brian Westbrook banged up, but now electrifying second year pro DeSean Jackson might be sidelined. The Philadelphia Daily News reports:

As the rest of the Eagles tried desperately to come back against the Saints, Jackson, the team’s most dynamic player, limited his action to the sideline. His angry groin, flaring all week, finally cost him playing time. […]

Eagles coach Andy Reid said of Jackson’s injury, “I think we’ll be fine there.”

Jackson, meanwhile, was less certain.

After the game, limping through the locker room with the affected area packed in ice, several teammates asked him how he was. He uttered tepid reassurances.

Asked by a reporter if he would be able to practice this week, he muttered, “I can’t answer that. It’s still Sunday.”
