Howev= er, coach Marty Mornhinweg stated that Stewart is making progress, and is g= etting closer to returning to action. Marco Battaglia , TE CIN Updated 1= 1/18/01 Battaglia (appendectomy) is out at least a month, and may miss the = rest of the season. The big tight end has no real value as a Fantasy player= . Mark Brunell , QB JAC Updated 11/18/01 Brunell (quadriceps) will start= on Sunday against Pittsburgh. He'll be facing a tough Steelers' secondary = at less than 100 percent, however, so Fantasy owners may want to consider b= enching him in Week 10. Fred Taylor , RB JAC Updated 11/18/01 Taylor (gr= oin) practiced without incident on Friday, but he still needs medical clear= ance before he can play in Sunday's game against Pittsburgh. Even is he is = able to play, however, he'd only be used on a limited basis. Stacey Mack wi= ll get the start in any event, so playing Taylor on your Fantasy team is no= t a wise move. ! Jerome Pathon , WR IND Updated 11/18/01 Pathon (foot) i= s out for Sunday's game against New Orleans, according to the Indianapolis = Star. Reggie Wayne will start in Pathon's place once again. James Jackson= , RB CLE Updated 11/18/01 Jackson (ankle) will likely be a gametime decis= on on Sunday against Baltimore. If the rookie tailback is unable to play, J= amel White will be Cleveland's featured back with Benjamin Gay getting some= looks in the backfield as well. Correll Buckhalter , RB PHI Updated 11/= 17/01 Buckhalter has been suspended for this weekend's game against Dallas.= He is one of three Eagles who will be held out of the game. Brian Mitchell= will likely serve as Duce Staley's backup. Jamal Lewis , RB BAL Updated = 11/17/01 According to published reports, Lewis has been suspended for four = games. Lewis' four-game suspension went into effect on Friday and he will n= ot be allowed to work out or rehabilitate with the team for four weeks, or = until Dec. 17. Instead, Lewis will work toward recovering from a torn ACL i= n Tennessee. Tyrone Wheatley , RB OAK Updated 11/16/01 Wheatley (knee) i= s out for Sunday's game with the Chargers. Charlie Garner will once again b= e Oakland's feature back. Zack Crockett may be used in goal-line situations= . Frank Wycheck , TE TEN Updated 11/16/01 According to published reports,= Wycheck is expected to play half of Sunday's game against Cincinnati. That= makes him a risky start from a Fantasy perspective. St! ev! e McNair , QB= TEN Updated 11/16/01 McNair's status is still in question for Sunday's ga= me against Cincinnati due to an injured right thumb. He threw the ball duri= ng individual drills Friday, and according to published reports, is likely = to play despite not being 100 percent. We don't recommend McNair this week = as a result. Emmitt Smith , RB DAL Updated 11/16/01 Smith will return to = the lineup Sunday against Philadelphia after missing two games with a sprai= ned right knee. Cowboys Head Coach Dave Campo said after Friday's practice = that Smith would "be ready to play the majority of the game." His return bu= mps Troy Hambrick to fullback, but we wouldn't recommend you use either bac= k against the stingy Eagles rush defense. Frank Sanders , WR ARI Updated = 11/16/01 Sanders (hamstring) was added to the NFL injury report on Friday a= nd is now listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Detroit. Howeve= r, if you're completely desperate for a wideout in a larger league this wee= k, Sanders' matchup against a vulnerable Detroit secondary is worth conside= ring as long as he's able to play. Chris Weinke , QB CAR Updated 11/16/= 01 According to published reports, Weinke will be the starting quarterback = for Sunday's game against San Francisco. However, he's not worth starting o= n your Fantasy team. Daunte Culpepper , QB MIN Updated 11/16/01 Culpeppe= r is one pace for a good Fantasy season despite the lack of consistency in = Minnesota's offense this season. He's one of the better quarterbacks in the= league from a Fantasy perspective, and should be in your starting lineup o= n a weekly basis. Cris Carter , WR MIN Updated 11/16/01 Carter's numbers= may be down somewhat this season, but he's still too good to ever consider= benching. The veteran has a knack for finding the end zone, and should hav= e a good game against rookie CB Will Allen and the Giants' secondary on Mon= day night. Randy Moss , WR MIN Updated 11/16/01 Moss is listed as probab= le for Monday's game against the N.Y. Giants due to an ankle injury. He's b= een underachieving this season, but it's almost impossible to bench him bas= ed on his potential to post solid Fantasy numbers. Ricky Williams , RB NO= Updated 11/16/01 Williams is one of the better Fantasy backs in the leagu= e, and is a good player to use on a weekly basis. He'll face an Indianapoli= s defense that has been underachieving all season long, so Williams is a mu= st-start. Aaron Brooks , QB NO Updated 11/16/01 Brooks had a big game = against San Francisco last weekend, throwing for 347 yards and two scores. = He may be a bit inconsistent this season, but his potential to post huge nu= mbers makes it tough to bench him, especially against a vulnerable Indianap= ol! is! defense. Willie Jackson , WR NO Updated 11/16/01 Jackson put up= a huge game against San Francisco last weekend, posting 11 catches and 167= yards receiving. He'll face a questionable Indianapolis squad that is vuln= erable to the pass in Week 10, so starting Jackson this week is a solid opt= ion. Stephen Davis , RB WAS Updated 11/16/01 Davis has stepped up his pl= ay after beginning the season slowly. He's averaged 112 yards rushing over = his last four games, and is once again emerging as a reliable Fantasy playe= r. Give him the start in Week 10 against a De! nv! er defense that is vulne= rable to high scoring games. Tony Banks , QB WAS Updated 11/16/01 Banks = has played well of late, throwing five touchdowns in his last three games. = He's got a good matchup this weekend against a Denver team that can be beat= en through the air, but he's only worth considering in very deep Fantasy le= agues. Michael Westbrook , WR WAS Updated 11/16/01 Westbrook has been in= consistent this season, but he has caught three touchdown passes in his las= t four games. He'll face a Denver secondary this weekend that is vulnerable= at best, so starting him in deeper leagues is worth considering. Rod Gar= dner , WR WAS Updated 11/16/01 Gardner has been held in check in his last = two games, catching only three passes for 38 yards. He does have a favorabl= e matchup this weekend against Denver, however, so starting him is a good m= ove. Az-Zahir Hakim , WR STL Updated 11/16/01 Hakim has been inconsi! st= ! ent in recent weeks, so starting him on your Fantasy team is a gamble unl= ess the matchup is right. He'll go up against a tough New England secondary= in Week Ten, so avoid using him outside of deeper leagues. Torry Holt , = WR STL Updated 11/16/01 Holt continues to put up consistent yardage totals= , but he's only scored only three touchdowns this season. He'll face a toug= h New England secondary this weekend, but he's still worth starting on your= Fantasy team based on his potential to put up solid numbers. Isaac Bruce= , WR STL Updated 11/16/01 Bruce hasn't put up the huge Fantasy totals thi= s season, but he's still one of the better wideouts in the league. He'll fa= ce CB Ty Law and the formidable New England secondary, but he's still worth= starting based on his potential for big numbers. Marshall Faulk , RB STL= Updated 11/16/01 Faulk had a huge game against Carolina, proving that he = is still the best Fantasy player in the league. He's a must-start every wee= k, and should post solid numbers in Week 10 against New England. Ernie Co= nwell , TE STL Updated 11/16/01 Conwell has had! a! few down weeks, so sta= rting him on your Fantasy team is somewhat of a gamble. With the lack of de= pth at tight end around the league, however, starting Conwell is something = many Fantasy owners will have no choice but to do. Richard Huntley , RB C= AR Updated 11/16/01 Huntley will be the likely starter this weekend agains= t San Francisco, but don't be surprised if he splits carries with Nick Goin= gs. Avoid starting either back in Week 10 if at all possible. More Update= s [IMAGE] Copyright 2001 Commissioner.COM Inc and SportsLine.com Inc.
