Brian Westbrook will not play against the New York Giants after suffering a concussion last Monday night against the Washington Redskins when he was kneed in the helmet by linebacker London Fletcher. Westbrook is one of eight players, and two starters, listed as inactive for the Eagles.

Rookie LeSean McCoy will take Westbrook's place as the starting running back and main ball-carrier.
