Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth, who missed last weekend's near-miss against the Cowboys, will be a game-time decision for Sunday's trip to Philly.
Coach Jim Zorn made the declaration on Friday, in comments distributed to the media. Haynesworth did not practice Friday, and he'll be listed as questionable on the official injury report.
Zorn also said that cornerback DeAngelo Hall, who injured a knee after recovering a fumble against the Redskins, will miss the game. Running back Clinton Portis was ruled out earlier in the week, due to the lingering effects of getting his head caught in a sandwich helmet against the Broncos.
Fullback Mike Sellers suddenly is a question mark for Sunday, after tweaking a hamstring during practice on Friday.
"He just got a little knot in his hamstring and instead of having him try to push through it we just took him out and said let's rub this thing down and I think he feels pretty good," Zorn said of Sellers. "He was very limited today because I pulled him off. So he started practice and then I pulled him off."
The Eagles also might be depleted or Sunday's game -- they've got several injuries in the secondary, and running back Brian Westbrook has been ruled out due to a concussion.

Boy, I hope Coach Portis allows him to play!
I don't remember seeing anywhere an asterisk in the "Standings" column that said "near miss" on Dallas record. I do notice that Philadelphia is noticably absent from the Super Bowl "Wins" in anything NFL anywhere. Phil 0-2. McNabb's huddle vomit....out.
"...we just took him out and said let's rub this thing down and I think he feels pretty good," Zorn said of Sellers."
I bet he does!!!
This guy puts out the most double entendre comments than any coach in the history of the NFL. I hope he comes back next year!!!
Portis was injured against the Falcons.
"I don't remember seeing anywhere an asterisk in the "Standings" column that said "near miss" on Dallas record."
Well it was closer that it probably should have been, and I blame it on having Haynesworth on the bench. He may be a good player but he's never shown it against the Cowboys and he has had multiple chances to do so. In fact all he's really done against the Cowboys is hurt his own team, if you don't count the attempted murder on Andre Gurode that was witnessed by dozens of Nashville police officers who did absolutely nothing about it.
McNabb puked and threw a TD on the same drive, get over it.. I hope he pukes in every Redskins fans face and throws 5 TDs
I guess now everyone is seeing why the Titans refused to pay him the kind of money that he wanted. He's only on the field about half a season (unless its the season before his contract is up)
Maybe he can puke in your mothers face
Vox, serious question. Didn't Gurode also do something pretty heinous when he was off his meds prior to joining Dallas?
Haynsworth is a thug, just like Portis and Sean " I turned my thug life over to god but was still murdered by my betrayed homies" Taylor
"Didn't Gurode also do something pretty heinous when he was off his meds prior to joining Dallas? "
I have no idea. I'm not aware that he's on any meds, anti-psychotic or otherwise. In fact everything I've read says that he's a solid character guy. Maybe you're thinking about Demetrius Underwood or Alonzo Spellman? Both wackos, both had incidents when they were off their meds, not sure if anything they did qualifies as heinous though. Running around naked in traffic, stabbing yourself, stuff like that. I know you're not thinking of Charles Haley, I dont think they have meds that fix whatever's wrong with him.
We definitely agree about those other guys.
The entire NFC East is overrated. The division is not the powerhouse it used to be.
I called my guy in Dallas. After he called me an idiot he confirmed it was Underwood I was thinking of.

I don't remember seeing anywhere where people care about what you have to say, you sad little troll. How does this story have to do with the Eagles? Nowhere in it did they bring up how butthurt you still obviously are about 44-6.
