PHILADELPHIA - Donovan McNabb returned to practice Friday, but the Eagles could be without Brian Westbrook for Sunday's game at Chicago.

McNabb was a full participant in Friday's practice after sitting out all week with a chest contusion he sustained in the first half of last week's 15-6 win over Pittsburgh. He is questionable for Sunday's game.

Westbrook sat out practice all week with an ankle injury, but has said he plans on being ready to play.

COLTS: Safety Bob Sanders, already out with a sprained right ankle, had arthroscopic surgery on a knee.

The NFL Defensive Player of the Year last season injured his ankle Sept. 14 and was initially expected to miss four to six weeks. Colts owner Jim Irsay said the recovery period for the sprain would likely be longer than that for the knee, so the surgery was scheduled during his absence.

JAGUARS: Jacksonville likely will be without two defensive starters Sunday against Houston. Safety Reggie Nelson (knee) was ruled out and linebacker Justin Durant (groin) was listed as doubtful. Also ruled out were center Brad Meester (biceps) and guard Chris Naeole (knee).

JETS: Quarterback Brett Favre was listed as questionable Friday for Sunday's game with a sore left ankle, but he is expected to start against Arizona.

PACKERS: Coach Mike McCarthy says cornerback Al Harris will be out "at least three to four weeks" with a spleen injury.

RAIDERS: Justin Fargas will miss his second consecutive game with a groin injury, and fellow running back Darren McFadden was limited in practice again Friday with a turf toe injury that affected him last week in Buffalo. McFadden is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. San Diego.

RAVENS: Starting cornerback Samari Rolle has been ruled out for Monday night's game against Pittsburgh because of shoulder and neck injuries.
