The Eagles aren’t giving up hope of having quarterback Donovan McNabb on the field for Sunday’s home opener against the Saints.


McNabb made a brief appearance on the practice field Thursday afternoon but didn’t take part in any drills. He fractured his rib on a touchdown run late in the Eagles’ 38-10 victory over the Carolina Panthers last weekend.

“Donovan is working very hard,” Eagles offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg said. “You know Donovan, he’s doing everything in his power to get back out there, make it to this game. He’s played with a broken ankle, a broken sternum and all these things. Donovan is a very tough man.”

Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb didn’t practice Wednesday because of his cracked rib, and it still isn’t known if he will play this weekend against the New Orleans Saints. “He’s making some progress,” Eagles coach Andy Reid said of McNabb. “It’s too early to say anything right now. We’ll just see how he does here over the next couple of days.”


Kevin Kolb took snaps with the starters Wednesday. Reid again made it clear that Kolb will start against the Saints on Sunday if McNabb can’t play.

Jeff Garcia, picked up by the Eagles on Tuesday, would be Kolb’s backup. He will be the No. 3 emergency quarterback if McNabb starts.

Michael Vick and Garcia will share snaps with the scout team this week. Vick isn’t eligible to play until next week’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Here’s a scenario that must have defensive coordinators scrambling to their chalkboards: Donovan McNabb and Michael Vick on the field together.


Though Vick has spent his three practice days with the Philadelphia Eagles playing quarterback, it’s more likely he’ll see most of his action in a nontraditional offense. With his speed and powerful arm, Vick is an ideal candidate to run a variation of the Wildcat formation.

Eagles coach Andy Reid isn’t revealing any secrets, but McNabb said Monday he wouldn’t mind if Vick took some of his snaps. “I wouldn’t have a problem with it if it’s helping us win,” McNabb said.

If Vick lines up behind center, McNabb won’t necessarily be watching from the sideline. “I’ll be a receiver. I might be a tight end. I might be a running back,” he said with a smile. “You never know where I’ll be.”
