ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Brian Westbrook will be evaluated by a Pittsburgh specialist to determine whether he can continue to play football.
Westbrook will be evaluated at the same facility that previously looked at Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman, 49ers quarterback Steve Young, and linebacker Bill Romanowski.
“The Eagles have confirmed a report that RB Brian Westbrook will visit two concussion specialists on Wednesday, November 18 in Pittsburgh, PA," the team said in a statement. "The Eagles will first have Westbrook consult with neuropsychologist Mark R. Lovell, PhD. Following that visit Westbrook and Lovell will consult with neurosurgeon Joseph Maroon, MD. Dr. Lovell has been consulting with the Eagles’ medical staff on Westbrook’s recovery from the first concussion during the past three weeks.”
