-- Donovan McNabb, cracked rib.
Injured after he scored a third-quarter touchdown on what appeared to be a late hit. Andy Reid would not rule out McNabb being available for next Sunday's game.
-- Quintin Demps, hamstring.
Reid said all the other in-game injuries were just bumps and bruises.
-- Inactives: Shawn Andrews (back), Joe Mays (shoulder), Todd Herremans (foot) were deactivated injured players.
-- DeSean Jackson, on Donovan McNabb's injury: "It's part of this game. He's a tough dude. He's been around a long time . . . He will be back."
-- Sheldon Brown, on his interceptions and his offseason contract issues: "They have nothing to do with that. My effort is for these guys. We work together. We bleed together . . . At the end of the day, as long as I have their respect that is all that counts."
-- Jake Delhomme, on his interceptions: "They got good pressure, and we didn't respond to it. Give them credit. You know what? This is the NFL. If we didn't deal with it this week, we're going to see a lot more next week [against Atlanta]."
