Shawn Andrews has been placed on injured reserve, ending the two-time Pro Bowl lineman's season.
The Philadelphia Eagles made the move Tuesday after Andrews missed the entire preseason and season opener with a back injury. Andrews briefly returned to practice, but his surgically repaired back flared up again.
Quarterback Jeff Garcia took Andrews' spot on the roster. The Eagles were counting on Andrews moving from right guard to anchor the right tackle spot.

You knew the Eagles weren't going to keep seven wide receivers all season. And you knew something had to give with the health of Shawn Andrews.
