Samuel Out For Season Finale

By Matt Leon

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - The Eagles will play out the string on Sunday against the Washington Redskins at the Linc, and they will do so without Asante Samuel.

Head coach Andy Reid today said the cornerback has been ruled out for the game because of that hamstring injury which also sidelined him last week against the Cowboys. Samuel did not practice all week. He intercepted three passes in his fourth season in Philadelphia.

Running back LeSean McCoy is listed as questionable with an ankle injury, but Reid says he does expect his leading rusher to play in this game.

Tackle Todd Herremans (ankle) and defensive tackle Trevor Laws (knee) are both listed as probable for Washington.

The Eagles are 7-8 and eliminated from playoff contention. The Redskins will bring a 5-10 record into this one.
