Antonio Dixon To Start

Eagles DT Brodrick Bunkley's elbow injury may not keep him out for the rest of the season after all, according to FoxSports.com's Adam Caplan.

Bunkley has already been ruled out for this week's game against the Falcons, but there's hope that the injury will leave him week-to-week as opposed to ending his season. Second-year DT Antonio Dixon will start in Bunkley's place this week, splitting snaps with Trevor Laws. It's a matchup upgrade for Michael Turner.

Antonio Dixon and Darryl Tapp got added time on the defensive line in place of Bunkley and Cole. Dixon notched a sack early in the third quarter. Juqua Parker got his first start of the year, playing defensive end ahead of rookie Brandon Graham.
