He will be evaluated on a day to day basis. Ron Dixon= , WR NYG Updated 10/24/01 Dixon missed Monday game because of a sprained = ankle. He has made progress in his recovery and might play this week. Joe = Jurevi! ci! us , WR NYG Updated 10/24/01 Ike Hilliard regained his startin= g position Monday, returning Jurevicius to the role of a reserve. Jureviciu= s was productive as a starter in Hilliard's absence. However, he will be us= eless as the No. 3 receiver. There is a chance that he could return to star= ting lineup and replace Amani Toomer. Toomer has been inconsistent this sea= son. Jurevicius played alongside Hilliard a few times in Sunday's game whil= e Toomer stood on the sidelines. Reggie Swinton , WR DAL Updated 10/24/0= 1 Swinton is suffering from a hamstring injury and is questionable for Sund= ay's game against Arizona. "He [Swinton] worked with the trainers on Monday= and did some things, but he didn't do enough to say for sure he will be av= ailable," said head coach Dave Campo. Darrin Chiaverini an! d ! Raghib Isma= il will get more playing time in his absence. Joey Galloway , WR DAL Upd= ated 10/24/01 Galloway is listed as questionable for this week's game again= st the Cardinals, but the Cowboys are optimistic about his chances of playi= ng. He is recovering from a sprained foot. "We're expecting some limited pr= actice tomorrow, so I would say he is questionable from the standpoint that= it will depend on how he improves the next two or three days," said head c= oach Dave Campo. Darrin Chiaverini , WR DAL Updated 10/24/01 Chiaverin= i practiced Monday and is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the = Cardinals. ! He! is recovering from a left knee injury. Raghib Ismail , W= R DAL Updated 10/24/01 Ismail, recovering from a sprained knee, practiced = Monday without any problems. He is listed as probable for this week's game.= Ricky Watters , RB SEA Updated 10/23/01 According to the Tacoma News Tr= ibune, Seahawks Head Coach Mike Holmgren says that Watters will return to t= he starting lineup as soon as he's healthy, which could be another month or= longer. "We'll cross that bridge when we come to it," Holmgren said. "I wo= uld be surprised if I didn't insert Ricky back into the lineup. He was our = best player when! h! e got hurt. Shaun (Alexander) has come in and played w= ell. But I would suspect that when Ricky can play, he'll play again." If yo= u 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 do= wn the stretch. Trent Dilfer , QB SEA Updated 10/23/01 Dilfer was unable= to practice on Monday due to a groin injury. He has lost the starting QB j= ob to Matt Hasselbeck, and shouldn't be on any Fantasy rosters at this poin= t. Matt Hasselbeck , QB SEA Updated 10/23/01 Hasselbeck will be the Seaha= wks' starting quarterback for Sunday's game against Miami, according to the= Seattle Post-Intelligencer. He replaces Trent Dilfer, who stood in for Has= selbeck as he was sidelined with a pulled groin. This isn't a very favorabl= e matchup for Hasselbeck from a Fan! ta! sy perspective, so don't use him t= his week. Wayne Chrebet , WR NYJ Updated 10/23/01 The Jets have listed Ch= rebet as questionable for next Sunday's game at Carolina. He will have an M= RI on Tuesday to determine the extent of the concussion he suffered Sunday = against the Rams. Dedric Ward , WR MIA Updated 10/23/01 Ward missed Monda= y'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. La= mar Smith , RB MIA Updated 10/23/01 Smith did not practice Monday due to a= n ankle injury. He is still expected to play Sunday in Seattle, so don't be= afraid to use him this week. Marvin Minnis , WR KC Updated 10/23/01 Chie= fs Head Coach Dick Vermail said Monday that Minnis might start ahead of Chr= is Thomas in Thursday's game against Indianapolis. We don't recommend you u= se either receiver despite the fact that the Colts' secondary is hardly imp= osing. Neither player is going to be a clear-cut starter this week. Jerome= Pathon , WR IND Updated 10/23/01 Pathon might miss his third straight gam= e Thursday at Kansas City due to a sprained right foot. Don't use him this = week. Terrence Wilkins , WR IND Updated 10/23/01 Wilkins is questionable = for Thursday's game at Kansas City due to broken ribs. We don't recommend y= ou use him in a Fantasy league this week. Terrell Davis , RB DEN Updated = 10/23/01 Davis is still targeting Sunday's game against New England as his = comeback game from arthroscopic knee surgery, but the Broncos have not deci= ded whether they will activate him. He will work in p! ra! ctice this week = and the Broncos hope to know by Wednesday whether Davis can play. We don't = recommend you use Davis in a Fantasy league unless it's absolutely certain = he's Denver's starting running back and is 100 percent healthy. Warrick D= unn , RB TB Updated 10/23/01 According to the St. Petersburg Times, Dunn d= oesn't have a hamstring strain, as was originally reported. Dunn won't prac= tice until late in the week, however, but he is expected to play on Sunday = against Minnesota. Duce Staley , RB PHI Updated 10/23/01 Staley started = Monday's game against the N.Y. Giants, but he didn't finish it. Staley carr= ied the ball just three times for 22 yards, and was spelled late in the gam= e by rookie Correll Buckhalter, who gained 34 yards on 11 carries late in t= he game. ! At! this point, it's tough to depend on Staley to post consisten= t Fantasy numbers, so consider reserving him if your roster allows for a so= lid replacement. Joe Nedney , K TEN 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 Updated 10/23/01 Kinney will be listed on the injury report be= cause of a calf injury. However, he is expected to play in this week's game= . Kevin Dyson , WR TEN Updated 10/23/01 D! ys! on is recovering from a t= humb injury but is expected to play in Monday's game against the Steelers. = He is expected to participate in practice. Eddie George , RB TEN Updated= 10/23/01 George suffered a thumb injury in Sunday's game. He is expected t= o play in this week's game. Steve McNair , QB TEN Updated 10/23/01 McNai= r is suffering from a sore ankle as a result of a play in Sunday's game. Ho= wever, he is expected to play in this week's game. Chris Sanders , WR TEN= Updated 10/23/01 The Tennessean reports that Sanders has a disc problem i= n his back. The reserve receiver 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 Updated 10/23/01 Jones is expected to resume pract= icing on Wednesday. An MRI on his shoulder showed that his injury would not= require surgery. Fred Taylor , RB JAC Updated 10/23/01 Taylor has been = ruled out of Sunday's game against Baltimore and his! s! tatus for next wee= k's game remains uncertain. "All I know is that, from week to week, they in= crease 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= Northcutt , WR CLE Updated 10/23/01 Northcutt left Sunday's game because = of a concussion. He is expected to play when the Browns return to action ne= xt week. Todd Heap , TE BAL Updated 10/23/01 Heap did not play Sunday bu= t head coach ! Br! ian Billick told The Baltimore Sun he is optimistic that= the rookie will play in this week's game. Heap has been inactive for the l= ast four games because of a sprained ankle. Terry Allen , RB BAL Updated= 10/23/01 Allen, who left after the fifth play of Sunday's game with a spra= ined ankle, is questionable for this week's game. Jason Brookins will start= at running back if Allen is inactive. More Updates [IMAGE] Copyright 20= 01 Commissioner.COM Inc and SportsLine.com Inc.
