Eagles Notes

Parker again sits out Eagles practice

For the second consecutive day, starting defensive end Juqua Parker missed practice yesterday, but he said afterward that, despite swelling in his right knee, he thinks he can play Sunday at San Francisco.

"It's feeling pretty good," Parker said. "I should be able to go."

Also missing practice were Brian Westbrook (broken ribs), Reggie Brown (groin), J.R. Reed (hamstring and ankle) and Shawn Andrews (lower back).

Wide receiver Kevin Curtis, who has not played this season, worked with the scout team and regular offense.

Eagles offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg said that Curtis "is close" to being ready.

"He is feeling pretty good," Mornhinweg said. "He felt pretty good yesterday; he is feeling pretty good today. . . . He is a day-to-day situation."

Defensive end Victor Abiamiri, who has been out since injuring his right wrist early in training camp, practiced for a second straight day. He had the wrist in a removable cast.

Defensive coordinator Jim Johnson said that Abiamiri would play both end and tackle, in part because Dan Klecko will be used primarily at fullback.

Asked whether Abiamiri is ready, Johnson said: "We're going to find out. We're going to find out Sunday. We'll see. Now, he's not going to play a lot, but he's going to play."

Just for kicks

Eagles special-teams coordinator Rory Segrest said that he isn't going to change his strategy with kicker David Akers, who is 0 for 3 from 40 yards and beyond in the last two games.

"The leg strength is definitely there," Segrest said. "It's just a matter of working out some technical issues on things. I feel like he's going to continue to work, and we'll get that fixed."

Bill Smithson isn't smiling anymore.

The urbane sales manager, who seemed to be almost enjoying himself during the early days of his trial, was dabbing sweat from his blanched face yesterday after he was found guilty of first degree murder.
