Philadelphia, PA (My Sportsbook) - Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, while running back Brian Westbrook is questionable. McNabb did not practice all week, including Friday, and continues to suffer from a fractured rib he sustained in the season-opening win over Carolina. Kevin Kolb started at quarterback in last Sunday's loss to New Orleans and would be slated to start again should McNabb miss the contest. Jeff Garcia and Michael Vick, back from a league suspension, will serve as the backups. Westbrook has an ankle sprain and has also missed practice all week. The Villanova product underwent offseason surgery on the ankle and was forced to sit out most of training camp and the preseason with the injury, which was aggravated against the Saints. Wide receiver DeSean Jackson, who missed Wednesday's and Thursday's practice with a groin injury, practiced Friday and is expected to play in Sunday's contest. In other news with the team, the Eagles brought in linebacker Jeremiah Trotter for a workout earlier this week. Trotter, who has not played in the league since 2007, has had two separate stints in Philadelphia. Head coach Andy Reid said the club had not yet made a decision on whether to sign the 32-year-old.
