"Matt has had a cou= ple of weeks to watch. He's champing at the bit to prove whatever he has to= prove," Head Coach Mike Holmgren told the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. We d= on't recommend Hasselbeck as a Fantasy starter right now, especially agains= t the Dolphins' defense in Week Seven. Trent Dilfer , QB SEA - Free Agent = Updated 10! /1! 6/01 Dilfer suffered a pulled groin during Sunday's game ag= ainst Denver, and he is not expected to be able to play October 28 against = Miami, according to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. "There's more to it tha= n just a normal groin pull. We'll just leave it at that," Seahawks Head Coa= ch Mike Holmgren said Monday. "He's injured, and he won't practice this wee= k." Dilfer is probably the better Fantasy option of the two, but don't expe= ct him to be able to help your team for the next two weeks. Tony Richardso= n , RB KC - Neal/McKay Updated 10/16/01 Chiefs Head Coach Dick Vermeil said= Monday there is a chance Richardson could play Sunday in Arizona, accordin= g to the Kansas City Star. Richardson is battling a shoulder injury.

Brian Griese , QB DEN - Matty Upd! at! ed 10/16/0= 1 The Broncos are unsure whether Griese will be ready for Sunday's game in = San Diego, according to the Denver Post. However, An MRI Monday morning on = his right shoulder revealed no structural damage and no tie to his previous= shoulder surgeries. Griese is questionable for Wednesday's practice as wel= l as Sunday's game, and if he's out, expect Gus Frerotte to get the start. = Rob Johnson , QB BUF - Giggles Updated 10/16/01 Johnson has been listed as= probable for Thursday's game in Jacksonville despite a neck injury. He has= n't been a reliable Fantasy quarterback all year, and there's no reason to = believe that will change this week. Don't use Johnson.

Joe Jurevicius , WR NYG - Free Agent Update= d 10/16/01 Jurevicius suffered a rib injury during Sunday's game against St= . Louis.
