Vick Is No. 2 QB; Demps Inactive

Jan 09, 2010 at 01:36 PM

ARLINGTON, Tx. -- Quarterback Michael Vick will be the No. 2 QB for today's wild card showdown between the Eagles and the Cowboys.

Otherwise, the Eagles' inactives are the same as last week. Safety Quintin Demps is inactive, which means Jeremy Maclin will be the kickoff returner. Wide receiver Kevin Curtis, cornerback Geoffrey Pope, tackle King Dunlap, center Dallas Reynolds, tight end Martin Rucker and defensive tackle Trevor Laws are the other inactives.

Right tackle Marc Colombo returns to the Cowboys' starting lineup for the first time since the Cowboys' Nov. 15 game against Green Bay due to a fractured leg and a high-ankle sprain. Doug Free had started in Colombo's absence.

Inactive for the Cowboys are: quarterback Stephen McGee (3rd QB), safety Pat Watkins, cornerback Cletis Gordon, linebacker Jason Williamson, guard Montrae Holland, center/guard Duke Preston, tackle Pat McQuistan and linebacker Curtis Johnson.
