The Philadelphia Eagles have downgraded right tackle Winston Justice (knee) and cornerback Asante Samuel (knee) from questionable to out for Sunday's game against the host Dallas Cowboys. The team said both players will not travel with the team on Saturday to Dallas.

Justice will be replaced by backup offensive tackle King Dunlap, who started two games at left tackle earlier this season. Justice suffered a hyperextended knee during the team's loss two weeks ago against the host Chicago Bears. Justice did individual work this week, but did not practice.

Backup cornerback Joselio Hanson will start his third straight game for the injured Samuel. Samuel was originally injured during the Nov. 21 victory over the visiting New York Giants. Samuel saw limited work during Wednesday's practice, but did not practice on Thursday or Friday.
