While all three remain questionable for Sunday's game against the New York Giants, Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson, cornerback Asante Samuel, and tackle Winston Justice made the bus trip to the Meadowlands on Saturday.

In light of the amount of work they put in during Friday's practice, Jackson and Samuel appear to have a better shot of playing than Justice. A final decision on each of the starers is expected to be made during pregame warm-ups.

Jackson has a foot sprain and was officially listed as a nonparticipant in Wednesday's and Thursday's practices. But the receiver proclaimed himself fit to play as of Thursday.

Samuel missed the last three games because of a knee sprain. If he can't play, Joselio Hanson will start again in his place.

Justice missed last week's game with a knee sprain and was a limited participant in practice all week. Backup King Dunlap took most of the repetitions with the first team and will start if Justice can't go. - Jeff McLane
