Eagles Place Michael Vick on Roster Online Sports Betting

October 25th, 2021 Online Sports Betting Odds Line

Online sports betting has the Philadelphia Eagles placing Michael Vick on the 53-man roster. Vick can’t play this week in the sportsbetting matchup against the New Orleans Saints but he is eligible to return next NFL betting week when the Eagles play the Kansas City Chiefs.

Online sports betting had the Eagles releasing wide receiver Hank Baskett to make room for Vick. What the addition of Vick to the roster means is that Vick can now practice with the team. The release of Baskett was not a huge surprise in sportsbetting since he really didn’t fit in since Brandon Gibson made the team as a sixth round pick.

The Eagles had other news that is not as positive in online sports betting. The team has lost Pro Bowl lineman Shawn Andrews for the rest of the online sports betting season. He was placed on injured reserve on Tuesday which ends his online sports betting season. Andrews had missed the preseason and the online sports betting opener with a back injury and it was not getting any better. “It’s disappointing to lose any player for the entire season, but we have full confidence in the other lineman we have on this roster to help this team succeed,” coach Andy Reid said. “We wish Shawn all the best as he recovers and rehabilitates from this injury.”

The Eagles have a new offensive line as in the sportsbetting off-season they replaced tackles Tra Thomas and Jon Runyan. The Eagles signed Stacy Andrews (Shawn’s brother) and Jason Peters in the off-season. Now the line will not be as strong without Shawn as Winston Justice will move into the starting lineup as online sports betting has it. The team is also looking at Runyan who has been working out with the team since last online sports betting season when he underwent microfracture surgery on his knee.

With the roster spot available, the team added quarterback Jeff Garcia to their online sports betting roster. He was signed as a possible backup to quarterback Donovan McNabb who has a cracked rib and may not play this sportsbetting week.

Online sports betting odds at the sportsbook probably won’t be impacted by the loss of Shawn Andrews. That doesn’t mean the Eagles won’t suffer though in NFL betting. The offensive line will be weaker and that means holes will be smaller and the pass protection weaker. Online sports betting odds are not on the sportsbook board yet for this week’s game between the Eagles and Saints.
