According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, quarterback Michael Vick does not have broken ribs but he was diagnosed with a rib cartilage injury. The newspaper also reports that running back LeSean McCoy suffered a rib injury in Sunday’s loss to the Redskins.

“We’ll see how he feels,” Reid said. “This is going to be one of those day-to-day, week-to-week things … Rick [Burkholder] and our docs will keep a close eye on it.”

Reid said Vick is “sore” today.

“We’ll see how Michael does here,” Reid said. “If he is as sore as he is today, then Kevin will take the snaps [Wednesday].”

Vick at least was not grimacing as he walked from the NovaCare cafeteria to a meeting. Walking seemed painful for him yesterday. “Better,” Vick said when asked how he felt.

Meanwhile, running back LeSean McCoy has a broken rib suffered in the second quarter. “He played through it,” Reid said. “He’s a pretty tough kid. We have to see. It’s a comfort thing. They are doing a couple of other things.”

In related news, Reuben Frank of the Burlington County Times reports that the Eagles have inquired about the availability of Bills’ running back Marshawn Lynch. According to Frank, Philly contacted Buffalo after receiving word about McCoy’s injury.

There’s no doubt that McCoy’s injury leaves the Eagles thin at running back. Mike Bell is listed behind McCoy on Philly’s depth chart and he didn’t play a down on Sunday against the Redskins. He has just 20 yards on 12 carries through four games and could struggle mightily against the 49ers next Sunday.

Maybe Buffalo GM Buddy Nix will get that third rounder after all. It just depends on how desperate the Eagles are.
