The Eagles haven't formally ruled Mike Vick out of their Sunday home opener against the Giants.

But trainer Rick Burkholder basically said Monday that Vick won't play this week due  to the concussion he suffered Sunday night against the Falcons.

Speaking about the Eagles' concussion treatment and testing protocol Burkholder noted "There’s a lot that needs to go on over the next three, four, five, seven days.

"But you know we have it outlined, and we’ve done that before and this isn’t our first go-round.”

Kind of scooped head coach Andy Reid, who simply adores declining comment on the obvious (like the Giants aren't already preparing for Mike Kafka and Vince Young).

Obviously there isn't enough time to prepare for a Giants team that wants revenge for what Vick did to them last year.

But don't believe me. Take it from the trainer.
