Eagles inside linebacker Mychal Kendricks almost certainly will be scratched again this week due to a strained right calf.



Which is a shame because Kendricks is just the guy defensive coordinator Billy Davis could use to mirror or shadow Niners quarterback Colin Kaepernick, one of the more mobile passers in the league.

But Kendricks is making progress. He got into one of the drills at practice Thursday. Every journey, you know, begins with the first step. And Kendricks' strained right calf is strong enough for him to push off on it.
