"We'll cross that bridge when we come to it," Holm= gren said. "I would be surprised if I didn't insert Ricky back into the lin= eup. He was our best player when he got hurt. Shaun (Alexander) has come in= and played well. But I would suspect that when Ricky can play, he'll play = again." If you have the roster room, it would be a good idea to stash both = backs on your team to ensure you're safe if Watters takes the job back from= Alexander down the stretch.! Trent Dilfer , QB SEA - Free Agent Updated = 10/23/01 Dilfer was unable to practice on Monday due to a groin injury. He = has lost the starting QB job to Matt Hasselbeck, and shouldn't be on any Fa= ntasy rosters at this point. Matt Hasselbeck , QB SEA - Free Agent Updated= 10/23/01 Hasselbeck will be the Seahawks' starting quarterback for Sunday'= s game against Miami, according to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. He repla= ces Trent Dilfer, who stood in for Hasselbeck as he was sidelined with a pu= lled groin. This isn't a very favorable matchup for Hasselbeck from a ! Fa!= ntasy perspective, so don't use him this week. Wayne Chrebet , WR NYJ - F= ear Updated 10/23/01 The Jets have listed Chrebet as questionable for next = Sunday's game at Carolina. He will have an MRI on Tuesday to determine the = extent of the concussion he suffered Sunday against the Rams. Dedric Ward = , WR MIA - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 Ward missed Monday's practice due to= a foot injury. He is expected to miss Sunday's game at Seattle, and isn't = a useful Fantasy player at this point in the season. Lamar Smith , RB MIA = - Fear Updated 10/23/01 Smith did not practice Monday due to an ankle injur= y. He is still expected to play Sunday in Seattle, so don't be afraid to us= e him this week. Marvin Minnis , WR KC - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 Chief= s Head Coach Dick Vermail said Monday that Minnis might start ahead of Chri= s Thomas in Thursday's game against Indianapolis. We don't recommend you us= e either receiver despite the fact that the Colts' secondary is hardly impo= sing. Neither player is going to be a clear-cut starter this week. Jerome = Pathon , WR IND - Martin Cuilla Updated 10/23/01! Pathon might miss his thi= rd straight game Thursday at Kansas City due to a sprained right foot. Don'= t use him this week. Terrence Wilkins , WR IND - The Klap Updated 10/23/01= Wilkins is questionable for Thursday's game at Kansas City due to broken r= ibs. We don't recommend you use him in a Fantasy league this week. Terrell= Davis , RB DEN - Eric Bass Updated 10/23/01 Davis is still targeting Sunda= y's game against New England as his comeback game from arthroscopic knee su= rgery, but the Broncos have not decided whether they will activate him. He!= w! ill work in practice this week and the Broncos hope to know by Wednesda= y whether Davis can play. We don't recommend you use Davis in a Fantasy lea= gue unless it's absolutely certain he's Denver's starting running back and = is 100 percent healthy. Warrick Dunn , RB TB - Hunter Shively Updated 10/= 23/01 According to the St. Petersburg Times, Dunn doesn't have a hamstring = strain, as was originally reported. Dunn won't practice until late in the w= eek, however, but he is expected to play on Sunday against Minnesota. Duc= e Staley , RB PHI - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 Staley started Monday's gam= e against the N.Y. Giants, but he didn't finish it. Staley carried the ball= just three times for 22 yards, and was spelled late in the game by rookie = Correll Buckhalter, who gained 34 yards on 11 carr! ie! s late in the game.= At this point, it's tough to depend on Staley to post consistent Fantasy n= umbers, so consider reserving him if your roster allows for a solid replace= ment. Joe Nedney , K TEN - Eric Bass Updated 10/23/01 Nedney suffered a n= eck injury in Sunday's game but is expected to play this week. Erron Kinn= ey , TE TEN - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 Kinney will be listed on the inju= ry report because of a calf injury. However, he is expected to play in this= week's game. Kevin Dyson , WR TEN - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 Dyson is= recovering from a thumb injury but is expected to play in Monday's game ag= ainst the Steelers. He is expected to participate in practice. Eddie Georg= e , RB TEN - Fear Updated 10/23/01 George suffered a thumb injury in Sunday= 's game. He is expected to play in this week's game. Steve McNair , QB TE= N - Rocks Updated 10/23/01 McNair is suffering from a sore ankle as a resul= t of a play in Sunday's game. However, he is expected to play in this week'= s game. Chris Sanders , WR TEN - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 The Tenness= ean reports that Sanders has a disc problem in his back. The reserve receiv= er is expected to see a specialist this week. Treatment options consist of = rest, an injection, or surgery. Don't expect Sanders to play anytime soon. = Rookie Drew Bennett will play in his absence. Damon Jones , TE JAC - Free= Agent Updated 10/23/01 Jones is expected to resume practicing on Wednesday= . An MRI on his shoulder showed that his injury would not require surgery. = Fred Taylor , RB JAC - Hunter Shively Updated 10/23/01 Taylor has been ru= led out of Sunday's game against Baltimore and his status for next week's g= ame remains uncertain. "All I know is that, from week to week, they increas= e his exercises and change of direction," head coach Tom Coughlin told The = Florida Times-Union. "It remains to be seen when Fred will be able to play.= Progress is slow. I'm hoping he responds well this week, then we can make = some kind of legitimate guess [about a return date] next week." Taylor has = been inactive since severely injuring his groin on Sept 23. Dennis Nort= hcutt , WR CLE - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 Northcutt left Sunday's game b= ecause of a concussion. He is expected to play when the Browns return to ac= tion next week. Todd Heap , TE BAL - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 Heap di= d not play Sunday but head coach Brian Billick told The Baltimore Sun he is= optimistic that the rookie will play in this week's game. Heap has been in= active for the last four games because of a sprained ankle. Terry Allen ,= RB BAL - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 Allen, who left after the fifth play = of Sunday's game with a sprained ankle, is questionable for this week's gam= e. Jason Brookins will start at running back if Allen is inactive. Elvis = Grbac , QB BAL - Eric Bass Upda! te! d 10/23/01 Coach Brian Billick expects= Grbac to be ready for Sunday's game against Jacksonville, but the quarterb= ack wasn't so sure. "I'm day-to-day. I'm feeling pretty sore in the chest a= rea," Grbac said Monday. "There could be something going on with the cartil= age. I haven't picked up a ball or thrown a ball, so we'll just have to wai= t and see." Randall Cunningham will replace Grbac if he is unable to play. = Az-Zahir Hakim , WR STL - FIBSABs Updated 10/23/01 Hakim suffered a cal= f injury during Sunday's blowout win over the New York Jets. However, he is= expected to be available for this weekend's game against New Orleans. Tr= ung Canidate , RB STL - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 According to the St. Lo= uis Post-Dispatch, Canidate is expected to start in place of Marshall Faulk= this weekend against New Orleans. "I wouldn't expect Marshall to be up for= this game," coach Mike Martz said. "He's got to be 100 percent before I wo= uld be convinced that we've got to let him play. And if he's not, then he d= oesn't play." Canidate proved himself as a worthy replacement last Sunday a= gainst the Jets, and should be starting from a Fantasy perspective again th= is week. J.J. Stokes , WR SF - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 Stokes spent= much of the bye week tending to his injured legs, and is close to being co= mpletely healthy. "Thankfully the bye week came so early. It was a blessing= for me because I was ! ab! le to get treatment every day," Stokes told the= Contra Costa Times . "I practiced today good. I wouldn't say I'm 100 perce= nt but I'm darn close." Stokes has been less than mediocre, however, so don= 't use him as a regular starter unless he proves himself to be more reliabl= e. Ike Hilliard , WR NYG - Tori Kuykendall Updated 10/23/01 Hilliard cont= inues to improve each week, and is now back in the Giants' starting lineup.= Hilliard led the G-Men with six catches for 80 yards on Monday night again= st Philadelphia, and looked as though his surgically-repaired foot is almos= t completely healed. Ron Dixon , WR NYG - Free Agent Updated 10/23/01 Dix= on missed Monday night's 10-9 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles due to a spra= ined ankle. The reserve wideout is day-to-day. Marshall Faulk , RB STL - = McKay Neal Updated 10/23/01 According to Head Coach Mike Martz, Faulk is qu= estionable for Sunday's game against New Orleans. "I'm just taking the same= posture that we did a week ago," Martz said. "I would not expect Marshall = to be up (active) for this game. He's got to be 100 percent before I'll be = convinced that we've got to let him play." Trung Canidate would once again = start in Faulk's absence is he's unable to go.
