Report: 'No Way' Bradford Plays Vs. Tampa Bay

/ CBS Philadelphia

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- It looks like Mark Sanchez will be the starting quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles for at least the next two games.

According to Eliot Shorr-Parks of NJ.com, a "person familiar to the situation" says there is no way Sam Bradford plays this Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and will likely miss the Eagles' Thanksgiving Day game as well. This was first reported by Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network.

Bradford suffered a concussion and reportedly separates his shoulder last Sunday against the Dolphins. The source says the shoulder is what will cause Bradford to miss games.

Bradford has not practiced all week and as head coach Chip Kelly told reporters on Thursday, the Eagles' QB is still in the concussion protocol.

Sanchez replaced Bradford in the third quarter of last Sunday's game, completing 14 of 23 passes for 156 yards. However, his late red-zone interception proved costly in the Eagles' 20-19 loss.
