NFL Injury Report: 49ers-Eagles Wednesday Practice Participation

The 49ers and Eagles released their Wednesday practice participation reports. We've discussed plenty about LeSean McCoy and Michael Vick, but we have another intriguing name not practice for the Eagles today: CB Asante Samuel. Samuel is a very solid cornerback and if the Eagles are missing him on defense that would seem to me to be a big deal.

Apparently Andy Reid has indicated Samuel's concussion was "mild" and he should probably be able to play on Sunday. It'd certainly be nice if he didn't but the 49ers will just have to live with Samuel on one side of the field Sunday night.

In the above link, there is also mention that reserve linebacker Moise Fokou will get some reps at strong-side linebacker and potentially replace Akeem Jordan in the starting lineup. We'll see how that affects the Eagles 4-3 defense.
