    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Philadelphia Eagles running back Correll Buckhalter will miss the season after having his third season-ending knee surgery in four seasons.Buckhalter, who missed nearly all of training camp, underwent surgery to repair a torn patella tendon in his right knee Tuesday.Last year, he had season-ending surgery on the same tendon after he injured it in a preseason game.Buckhalter, a fifth-year pro out of Nebraska, has been an asset when healthy but will miss his third full season because of injury. He missed all of the 2002 season after tearing a ligament in his left knee in minicamp.Buckhalter averaged 4.5 yards per carry as a rookie and chipped in with 542 yards and eight touchdowns as part of a three-pronged running attack with Duce Staley and Brian Westbrook in 2003.</div>LinkHeres comes Dorsey Levens. Which is not a bad thing because he did quite well last year.

    he needs to quite getting injured because reid wont take it if he keeps getting injured and you never know he could get released if he keeps it up.

    He probably will get released at the end of the season, but if Brian Westbrook leaves next year, the Eagles will probably keep him, but I bet anything Andy Reid is frustrated with him right at this moment.
