PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Strong safety Sean Considine will miss the rest of the season after hurting his left shoulder in the Eagles' loss to Dallas on Sunday night.

Considine, who became a starter before the midpoint of last season, was placed on injured reserve. Philadelphia promoted safety Marcus Paschal from the practice squad to take Considine's roster spot.

Quintin Mikell will replace Considine in the starting lineup against the Washington Redskins on Sunday. Mikell started five games at free safety when Brian Dawkins was sidelined.

"I could play both. It's just little nuances here or there," Mikell said of switching spots.

Considine had 47 tackles and one interception. A fourth-round pick in 2005, he replaced former Pro Bowl selection Michael Lewis after Lewis struggled early last year. Considine also injured the same shoulder his rookie season and finished that year on injured reserve.

Eagles coach Andy Reid said it hasn't been determined if Considine will require surgery.

In other moves, the Eagles signed safety Erick Harris and defensive end Xzavie Jackson to the practice squad. The New York Jets signed defensive end Marques Murrell off Philadelphia's practice squad.


Considine really wasn't playing well. I prefer Mikell anyway and don't really see Considine as a long time starter though. He's not that good in coverage and lacks playmaking ability.

33-25 win over the Redskins today. Westbrook had over 180 total yards and 3 TDs and McNabb had 4 TD passes.

Dolphins at home next week, so a .500 record is pretty likely after next week.

Ravens may come up with a nice offer to Philly for McNabb

Well, considering what the Eagles wanted for McNabb in the middle of the season from teams inquiring about him (Multiple first round picks), I highly doubt he goes anywhere unless the Ravens are stupid enough to do it..

Eagles could be darkhorse for Faneca

Despite being the top guard available on the market, Alan Faneca may have a difficult time finding a team willing to meet his salary demands. The seven-time Pro Bowl lineman is rumored to be seeking a deal that surpasses Steve Hutchinson's deal (seven years, $49 million) from two years ago. While several teams would love to add Faneca to their lineup, his age (31) will deter teams from committing to a high-priced, long-term deal.

League officials expect Faneca to sign a deal that is four to five years in length, with average salaries near the $7 million range. Also, there is a rumor floating in league circles that the Eagles will emerge as a dark horse candidate to make a strong play. Supposedly, the Eagles are interested in having Faneca line up at guard, with two-time Pro Bowl guard Shawn Andrews moving to right tackle as a replacement for Jon Runyan.


Eagles sign returner/receiver Brandon "Bam" Childress to 2-year contract

Jets' Robertson meets with Eagles for a physical. Could this mean a deal is in place?

Every team has made a pitch for Johnson and Boldin. Fact of the matter is, don't expect either of them to get traded this year.

They made an effort, but no one has apparently topped the 'Skins offer, which is all over the news/media today.
