PHILADELPHIA (AP) — LeSean McCoy, the NFC’s leading rusher, and cornerback Asante Samuel are inactive for the Philadelphia Eagles against Washington on Sunday.

McCoy, who has an ankle injury, finishes the season with 1,309 yards rushing and a team-record 20 touchdowns, including 17 rushing. Samuel misses his second straight game with a hamstring injury.

The Eagles (7-8) are seeking their fourth straight win, but were eliminated from playoff contention last week. The last-place Redskins (5-10) have lost nine of 11.
