H= e is listed as probable for Sunday's game against Atlanta, and is expected = to start. If you're desperate for a quarterback, Fiedler's matchup vs. the= Falcons is a good one. Steve McNair , QB TEN Updated 12/29/01 McNair wa= s excused from practice on Friday due to a family illness. He is listed as = questionable for Sunday's game against Cleveland, but he's expected to star= t. Larry Foster , WR DET Updated 12/29/01 Foster (thigh) is expected to = play in Sunday's game against Chicago. However, he is far too risky to star= t at this point in the Fantasy season. Bert Emanuel , WR DET Updated 12/= 29/01 Emanuel (knee) is expected to play on Sunday against Chicago. However= , he's too risky to start at this point in the Fantasy Football season. M= uhsin Muhammad , WR CAR Updated 12/29/01 Muhammad (turf toe) will not play= this week, and may miss the rest of the season. Isaac Byrd will likely sta= rt in his place again. Seahawks , DT SEA Updated 12/29/01 CB Shawn Spri= ngs, who was suspended for the past four games, will not start on Sunday ag= ainst San Diego. He may play a reserve role, however, but his playing time = will likely be limited. Todd Bouman , QB MIN Updated 12/29/01 Bouman wil= l miss Sunday's game against Green Bay due to a thumb injury. Spergon Wynn = will start in his place. Spergon Wynn , QB MIN Updated 12/29/01 Wynn wil= l start Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers in place of the injured= Todd Bouman. Wynn, who played in most of last week's loss to Jacksonville,= is far too inexperienced to start this deep into the Fantasy season. Dre= w Bledsoe , QB NE Updated 12/29/01 According to published reports, the Chi= cago Bears are interested in acquiring Bledsoe. With Tom Brady seemingly en= trenched as New England's quarterback, it seems that Bledsoe has become exp= endable to the Patriots. The move would certainly improve the Bears' passin= g game, but no deals would likely be made until sometime in the spring. M= artin Gramatica , K TB Updated 12/28/01 Gramatica has still not been ruled= out for Saturday's game, although the Buccaneers have signed veteran kicke= r Doug Brien as insurance. Even if Gramatica can play, he will be a very ri= sky Fantasy starter. Warrick Dunn , RB TB Updated 12/28/01 Dunn's status= is day to day with a toe injury. He is expected to play this week, but Mil= e Alstott has been the most productive back on the team in recent weeks. = Michael Westbrook , WR WAS Updated 12/28/01 Westbrook's status is day to d= ay with a knee injury. He is expected to play this week. MarTay Jenkins ,= WR ARI Updated 12/28/01 Jenkins may miss his second consecutive game with= an ankle injury this week. Arnold Jackson would replace him as Arizona's t= hird receiver. Brian Finneran , WR ATL Updated 12/28/01 Finneran is liste= d as probable with a knee injury. He is expected to play this week. Tyron= e Davis , TE GB Updated 12/28/01 Davis has been elevated to the No. 2 tigh= t end slot over rookie David Martin. He will see a considerable amount of p= laying time now that he is healthy, because Green Bay employs many double t= ight end sets in the red zone. Oronde Gadsden , WR MIA Updated 12/28/01 = Gadsden has been practicing this week and may be able to play. But his hams= tring injury may limit his productivity. Steve McNair , QB TEN Updated 1= 2/28/01 McNair was limited in practice on Thursday. He is still expected to= play this week, but he is a risky Fantasy starter because he will be less = than 100 percent healthy. Jimmy Smith , WR JAC Updated 12/28/01 Smith (f= lu) has missed practice time this week. He is still expected to play. Joe= Horn , WR NO Updated 12/28/01 Horn suffered a minor shoulder injury in pr= actice on Thursday. He is expected to start this week. Aaron Shea , TE CL= E Updated 12/28/01 Shea (shoulder) has been placed on injured reserve. O.J= . Santiago will continue to be Cleveland's No. 1 tight end while he is out.= Jason Brookins , RB BAL Updated 12/28/01 Brookins has returned to pract= ice and is listed as probable. But he still may not see any game action unt= il Week 17. Emmitt Smith , RB DAL Updated 12/28/01 Micahel Wiley may miss= this week's game with a hip injury. Smith is expected to appear on third d= owns this week as well as assuming his normal workload.

Wesley Walls , TE CAR Updated 12/28/01 Wa= lls missed practice on Thursday with a knee injury. He may be a gametime de= cision this week. Maurice Smith , RB ATL Updated 12/28/01 A banged-up Sm= ith Toe/knee) will continue to start for the Falcons. But Dan Reeves has i= ndicated Rodney Thomas will continue to get some work at halfback. Bob Ch= ristian , RB ATL Updated 12/28/01 Christian is day to day with a calf inju= ry. He is expected to play this week. Stephen Davis , RB WAS Updated 12/= 28/01 Davis (knee) has returned to practice. He is expected to start this w= eek. Todd Bouman , QB MIN Updated 12/28/01 Bouman took a few snaps Thurs= day but didn't appear to meet coach Dennis Green's "full strength" criteria= for starting against Green Bay. Spergon Wynn is likely to start Sunday, = though coaches didn't discuss the issue after Thursday's practice. Bouman d= idn't participate in the team's morning walk-through, when players work on = plays without fully suiting up. And during the portion of the regular pract= ice t! ha! t reporters were allowed to watch, Wynn took more snaps than Bou= man. A trainer said Wynn continued to take more snaps later in the closed p= ortion of practice. Jerome Bettis , RB PIT Updated 12/28/01 Bettis, sid= elined by a groin injury, returned to the practice field Thursday for the f= irst time in a month. "Still questionable," coach Bill Cowher said. "He did= more today. We'll see how he feels (Friday) and go from there. We'll take = it day to day." Doug Brien , K TB Updated 12/28/01 Brien signed a one-ye= ar contract Thursday night with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who will use him = against Baltimore if Martin Gramatica can't kick this week. Gramatica strai= ned his right hamstring during a 48-21 victory o! ve! r the Saints last wee= k. Coach Tony Dungy hasn't ruled him out for Saturday night's game against = Baltimore, however the club wanted to have a backup plan in case the Pro Bo= wl kicker isn't ready.
