Donovan McNabb is changing uniforms and staying in the NFC East. The Philadelphia Eagles traded McNabb to the Washington Redskins for a pair of draft picks on Sunday night.

"Donovan McNabb was more than a franchise quarterback for this team," Eagles chairman Jeffrey Lurie said.

Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb was back at practice Wednesday and says he'll be in the starting lineup when Philadelphia plays Tampa Bay on Sunday.

McNabb has been out since breaking his rib in the season opener. He missed two games before the Eagles had their bye this past weekend.

McNabb said Wednesday he expects to wear a protective jacket against the Buccaneers.

Eagles QB Michael Vick is finally headed back to regular-season NFL action, even if it's not coming how he envisioned it would. Vick, in an interview with CBS to air Sunday, said he thought he would be a starting quarterback upon his return to the NFL.
