Guard Chris Snee participated in individual drills, but not the team portion of practice and is still listed as questionable with an ankle injury. Tight end Jeremy Shockey, who sat out yesterday, practiced today and remains probable. Linebackers LaVar Arrington and Brandon Short had their customary rest days (to decrease the strain on their knees) and were added to the injury list as probable. For the Eagles, running back Brian Westbrook did not practice today and was added to the team's injury report with a knee.
Sinorice Moss continues to make progress, though Coughlin hasn't committed to suiting him up for the first time in Philadelphia.
"He's worked very well," Coughlin said. "He keeps getting better each day, and we have him involved a little more this week. (It's) not only the physical, but he's been out of the action for a long time. He has to kind of put the X's and O's together as well, but he seems to be a little bit better at it."
Practice squad defensive end Adrian Awasom hyper-extended his knee yesterday.
"He tried to go today, he had a brace on it, but he probably won't be able to go until next week, I'm sure," Coughlin said. "I was pleased to see him right back out there. He wasn't about to miss anything."
