PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Tonight’s game against Patriots game seems more important than the normal game 2 of the pre-season for the Eagles. Because of some injuries in New England, tonight’s game may not be the measuring stick we planned on seeing.

A report from ESPN says that ” Tom Brady, receiver Brandon Lloyd (who missed two practices early last week), and tight end Rob Gronkowski,” will see little to no action tonight. The report also says that tight end Aaron Hernandez and wide receiver Wes Welker could be held out as well.
