Wright expected to have results of an MR= I exam Thursday, and Campo said he wouldn't make a final decision on the qu= arterback's playing status for the Arizona game until after that. Campo sai= d Clint Stoerner would start ahead of Ryan Leaf if Wright isn't ready to pl= ay Sunday. Campo said there was a good chance that Leaf could play for the = Cowboys on Sunday. Leaf apparently hasn't been with the team long enough to= merit a starting spot yet. Terrell Davis , RB DEN - Lake Austin Mi= ghty Mullets Updated 10/24/01 Five weeks removed from arthroscopic knee s= urgery, the Denver Broncos running back was taken by surprise Wednesday whe= n told of news reports saying he may have a stress fracture in his leg and = could be lost for the season. "At this point in time, I'm on schedule to = play this Sunday," Davis said. Davis admitted that his right knee remains= sore, but he has been well enough to play on the scout team the past two w= eeks. He remained on the scout team Wednesday. Davis was listed as questi= onable on the weekly injury report. Amani Toomer , WR NYG - Team T-Bo= ne Updated 10/24/01 According to published reports, Toomer might be bench= ed in favor of WR Joe Jurevicius. Ike Hilliard will join Jurevicius if Toom= er is demoted. Toomer caught only three passes Monday night against the Eag= les and did not have a reception for more than 10 yards. Head coach Jim Fas= sel demoted Toomer last season, in an effort to motivate him. Wayne Chr= ebet , WR NYJ - South Park Cows Updated 10/24/01 Chrebet will miss Sunda= y's game at Carolina with a head injury. Coach Herman Edwards described Chr= ebet's ailment as "post-trauma migraines" and said he wanted to be extra ca= utious with the injury. Edwards said Chrebet passed the various tests and= scans he was given. Chrebet will be replaced by Kevin Swayne, a 26-year-ol= d rookie who played in both the Arena League and the XFL during the past ye= ar. He has now been playing football for 40 straight weeks and has one catc= h for 19 yards in the NFL. Chris Sanders , WR TEN - Free Agent Update= d 10/24/01 Sanders will not require surgery on his back. He will be re-ev= aluated after receiving an injection. His return date is unclear. Bert E= manuel , WR NE - Free Agent Updated 10/24/01 Emanuel signed with the Det= roit Lions on Wednesday. While the Lions are looking for a receiver to help= fill the void created by a season-ending injury to Germane Crowell, Emanue= l won't get the first crack at the job. Don't bother picking him up. Hin= es Ward , WR PIT - Blue Star Boys Updated 10/24/01 Ward is day to day wi= th an ankle injury. He is listed as probable for Monday's game against Tenn= essee. Germane Crowell , WR DET - Team T-Bone Updated 10/24/01 The De= troit Lions placed Crowell on injured reserve on Tuesday with a torn patell= a tendon in his left knee, which ends his season. Santana Moss , WR NYJ= - Free Agent Updated 10/24/01 The New York Daily News says there is stil= l a noticeable hitch in Moss' stride as he rceovers from knee surgery. The = earliest the Jets expect him to return is Dec. 2. Brett Favre , QB GB -= Water Boys Updated 10/24/01 Favre skipped Tuesday's practice due to gene= ral soreness. With Green Bay on the bye this week, expect him to be fully r= ecovered in time for Week Eight. Marvin Minnis , WR KC - Team T-Bone Up= dated 10/24/01 Early indications this week were Minnis would return to th= e starting lineup. But the Kansas City Star notes Chris Thomas is still wor= king with the first team in practice. There is no official word on which pl= ayer will start on Thursday against the Colts. Larry Foster , WR DET - = Free Agent Updated 10/24/01 According to the Detroit Free Press , Foster = is expected to start in Germane Crowell's place Sunday against Cincinnati. = Foster is an inexperienced wideout not worthy of picking up in Fantasy leag= ues right now. Monitor his progress over the next few weeks. Marcus Robi= nson , WR CHI - Beer Gut Boys Updated 10/24/01 The Bears placed Robinson= on injured reserve on Tuesday with torn ligaments in his left knee, effect= ively ending his season. Drop him unless you play in a keeper league. Ne= il Rackers , K CIN - South Park Cows Updated 10/24/01 According to the C= incinnati Enquirer , the Bengals worked out three kickers, and did not sign= one. Rackers' job is temporarily safe, but he is a big Fantasy risk becaus= e of his erratic play. Todd Pinkston , WR PHI - The Replacements Update= d 10/24/01 Pinkston has a strained wrist but is expected to play in Sunda= y's game. He will be evaluated on a day to day basis. Ron Dixon , WR N= YG - Free Agent Updated 10/24/01 Dixon missed Monday game because of a sp= rained ankle. He has made progress in his recovery and might play this week= . Joe Jurevicius , WR NYG - Aryan Brother Inc. Updated 10/24/01 Ike H= illiard regained his starting position Monday, returning Jurevicius to the = role of a reserve. Jurevicius was productive as a starter in Hilliard's abs= ence. However, he will be useless as the No. 3 receiver. There is a chance = that he could return to starting lineup and replace Amani Toomer. Toomer ha= s been inconsistent this season. Jurevicius played alongside Hilliard a few= times in Sunday's game while Toomer stood on the sidelines. Reggie Swi= nton , WR DAL - Free Agent Updated 10/24/01 Swinton is suffering from a = hamstring injury and is questionable for Sunday's game against Arizona. "He= [Swinton] worked with the trainers on Monday and did some things, but he d= idn't do enough to say for sure he will be available," said head coach Dave= Campo. Darrin Chiaverini and Raghib Ismail will get more playing time in h= is absence. Joey Galloway , WR DAL - Dallas Demon Horde Updated 10/24/= 01 Galloway is listed as questionable for this week's game against the Ca= rdinals, but the Cowboys are optimistic about his chances of playing. He is= recovering from a sprained foot. "We're expecting some limited practice to= morrow, 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 coach Dave= Campo. Darrin Chiaverini , WR DAL - Free Agent Updated 10/24/01 C= hiaverini practiced Monday and is listed as probable for Sunday's game agai= nst the Cardinals. He is recovering from a left knee injury. Raghib Ism= ail , WR DAL - Free Agent Updated 10/24/01 Ismail, recovering from a spr= ained knee, practiced Monday without any problems. He is listed as probable= for this week's game. Ricky Watters , RB SEA - The Replacements Updat= ed 10/23/01 According to the Tacoma News Tribune , Seahawks Head Coach Mi= ke Holmgren says that Watters will return to the starting lineup as soon as= he's healthy, which could be another month or longer. "We'll cross that br= idge when we come to it," Holmgren said. "I would be surprised if I didn't = insert Ricky back into the lineup. He was our best player when he got hurt.= Shaun (Alexander) has come in and played well. But I would suspect that wh= en 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 W= atters 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 Hasse= lbeck, and shouldn't be on any Fantasy rosters at this point. Matt Hasse= lbeck , QB SEA - Lake Austin Mighty Mullets Updated 10/23/01 Hasselbeck = will be the Seahawks' starting quarterback for Sunday's game against Miami,= according to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer . He replaces Trent Dilfer, wh= o stood in for Hasselbeck as he was sidelined with a pulled groin. This isn= 't a very favorable matchup for Hasselbeck from a Fantasy perspective, so d= on't use him this week. Wayne Chrebet , WR NYJ - South Park Cows Update= d 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 o= f 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 u= seful Fantasy player at this point in the season. Lamar Smith , RB MIA = - Beer Gut Boys Updated 10/23/01 Smith did not practice Monday due to an = ankle injury. He is still expected to play Sunday in Seattle, so don't be a= fraid to use him this week. Marvin Minnis , WR KC - Team T-Bone Updated= 10/23/01 Chiefs Head Coach Dick Vermail said Monday that Minnis might st= art ahead of Chris Thomas in Thursday's game against Indianapolis. We don't= recommend you use either receiver despite the fact that the Colts' seconda= ry is hardly imposing. Neither player is going to be a clear-cut starter th= is week. Jerome Pathon , WR IND - High Shrivel Factor Updated 10/23/01 = Pathon might miss his third straight game Thursday at Kansas City due to = a sprained right foot. Don't use him this week. Terrence Wilkins , WR I= ND - Beer Gut Boys Updated 10/23/01 Wilkins is questionable for Thursday'= s game at Kansas City due to broken ribs. We don't recommend you use him in= a Fantasy league this week. More Updates Player News Teams [IMAGE]= CYSWC Player News Joe Nedney , Active K Updated 10/23/01 Nedney suf= fered a neck injury in Sunday's game but is expected to play this week. = Chris Chandler , Reserve QB Updated 10/22/01 Chandler had another solid g= ame Sunday throwing touchdown passes of 57 and 39 yards. He also completed = 14 of 20 passes for 187 yards. Look for him to be an adequate starter for t= he rest of the season. Darnay Scott , Active WR Updated 10/22/01 Scott= suffered bruised ribs against the Bears. He is not expected to miss next w= eek's game against Detroit. J.R. Redmond , Reserve RB Updated 10/22/01 = Redmond made his return from an ankle injury on Sunday, and had one carry = for no yards. He won't see enough playing time to help Fantasy leaguers. = Maurice Smith , Active RB Updated 10/22/01 Smith suffered a sprained kne= e Sunday but is expected to play in the Falcons' next game. Atlanta has a b= ye this week and doesn't play again until November 4. Derrick Alexander = , Active WR Updated 10/21/01 Alexander finally had a big game, posting 99= yards receiving and a touchdown against Arizona. He's been unreliable for = the most part, however, but his potential to post numbers this good makes i= t tough to bench him. Desmond Clark , Reserve TE Updated 10/21/01 Clar= k had a big game on Sunday, catching six passes for 54 yards and a score ag= ainst San Diego. He's been reliable as far as tight ends go from a Fantasy = perspective, so continue to start him on a weekly basis. Corey Dillon ,= Active RB Updated 10/21/01 The Bears held Dillon to just 30 yards on 16 c= arries. Expect the veteran runner to bounce back from such a quiet performa= nce very quickly. Derrick Mason , Active WR Updated 10/21/01 Mason (an= kle) is expected to start on Sunday against Detroit. With the Lions' second= ary in shambles, starting Mason is a good decision for Fantasy owners with = a thin group of receivers. Jeff Garcia , Active QB Updated 10/18/01 Ac= cording to published reports, Garcia has been instructed not to pick up a f= ootball until the Niners begin practicing again next week. Garcia is dealin= g with a sore throwing elbow, as well as a few other nagging bumps and brui= ses. However, he's still expected to start in the 49ers' next game on Oct. = 28 against Chicago. Antowain Smith , Reserve RB Updated 10/18/01 Smith= rushed for 94 yards and two TDs the first time he faced the Colts this yea= r. Expect him to get in the end zone at least once this week, in his second= meeting with Indianapolis. Chad Lewis , Active TE Updated 10/18/01 Le= wis will have a good shot at producing some solid Fantasy numbers on Monday= against the N.Y. Giants. He's one of the league's top tight ends and shoul= d be in your starting lineup on a weekly basis. Antonio Freeman , Reser= ve WR Updated 10/14/01 Freeman caught nine passes for 138 yards and TD aga= inst Baltimore. His fine numbers against the AFC's top defense are a clear = signal that Freeman is still a quality Fantasy wideout, despite his quiet s= tart prior to this week. Raiders , Active DT Updated 10/02/01 The Raid= ers have lost DE Trace Armstrong for the rest of the season after he tore h= is Achilles' tendon in Sunday's game against Seattle. He'll have surgery th= is week and be placed on the injured reserve list shortly thereafter. In ot= her news, DT Roderick Coleman is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Dal= las Cowboys after sustaining a hamstring injury, and DT Grady Jackson is qu= estionable for Sunday after aggravating an injury to his right shoulder. = Bills , Reserve DT Updated 09/30/01 Defensive end Phil Hansen left Sunda= y's game against Pittsburgh in the third quarter with an apparent wrist inj= ury. He walked off the field and into the locker room to be examined, and h= is return is questionable. Ricky Proehl , Reserve WR Updated 08/19/01 = Proehl has been dealing with a slight hamstring injury in recent days, acco= rding to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch . The injury isn't considered serious,= however, and Proehl is expected to be ready for the start of the regular s= eason. Adam Vinatieri , Reserve K Updated 12/13/00 Vinatieri has been = one of the league's most accurate placekickers in recent weeks, converting = on 18 of his last 19 field goal attempts. He should get his chances against= the Bills this week, especially if Buffalo's defense struggles like it did= on Monday night. Unless you have one of the league's elite kickers on your= roster, giving Vinatieri the start is a good idea. [IMAGE] Copyright 20= 01 Commissioner.COM Inc and SportsLine.com Inc.
