The Facts:
McNabb's status for the Eagles' game at New England next Sunday is uncertain because of a sprained ankle and injured thumb. A.J. Feeley would start against the unbeaten Patriots if McNabb couldn't play.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
McNabb left Sunday's win over Miami in the second quarter after he hurt his right ankle. X-rays during the game were negative and McNabb spent the second half standing on the sideline. An MRI exam Monday showed no further damage. He injured his right thumb earlier in the game. X-rays showed it wasn't broken, but it was "quite swollen," according to HC Andy Reid. "I'm as worried about the thumb as the ankle because that's how he grips the football," Reid said, who added that McNabb's current status is day-to-day and that the veteran QB doesn't need to practice this week to start vs. the Pats.
