Cornerback Asante Samuel has been ruled out by the Philadelphia Eagles for the game at Dallas, scheduled on Sunday night. This news has upset several super bowl betting fans.
This will be the third consecutive game to be missed by Samuel because of his knee injury, which he sustained during the Week 11 victory over the New York Giants. Presently, the Eagles are tied with the same team for the first place in the NFC East. The absence of the player from the matches for a very long time can affect their position in the super bowl line adversely.
Samuel, a Central Florida product, was unable to attend the last two days of practice this week after seeing limited action on Wednesday.
Samuel is leading the league with seven interceptions. The football betting fans had great expectations from the player.
On the other hand, Offensive tackle Winston Justice, too will not be travelling with the team, because of a knee injury.
