Breaking News

Kellen Winslow - TE ...on 10/16/08 11:58am / Cleveland Browns Comments (0)
	Winslow showed up at the Browns' practice facility today. He didn't participate in practice, but the fact that he's out of the house is a good sign. He could easily come down to a game-day decision.

Kellen Winslow - TE ...on 10/16/08 11:43am / Cleveland Browns Comments (0)
	Winslow has returned to the Browns although he has not been cleared to practice after being hospitalized with an undisclosed illness. Winslow was seen walking the hallway in the Browns' headquarters Thursday. Coach Romeo Crennel says the Pro Bowler might practice Friday as Cleveland continues preparing for Sunday's game in Washington. Winslow fell ill last week and spent three nights in the Cleveland Clinic. He was discharged Sunday but was inactive for Cleveland's 35-14 upset of the New York Giants on Monday.

Tony Romo - QB ...on 10/16/08 11:36am / Dallas Cowboys Comments (0)
	Romo wants to play through his broken pinkie, but the concern is that by doing so, it could easily turn into a displaced fracture. It's hard to envision the Cowboys risking a longer-term injury to their star quarterback, so unless they get some differing medical opinions, expect Romo to miss the original four weeks.

Miles Austin - WR ...on 10/16/08 11:31am / Dallas Cowboys Comments (0)
	Austin will be the Cowboys' punt returner during the absence of Felix Jones. Jones will miss 2-4 weeks with a hamstring injury. This bumps Austin's value a little, but not enough to be fantasy worthy.

Napoleon Harris - LB ...on 10/16/08 11:15am / Kansas City Chiefs Comments (0)
	Harris signed a contract with the Vikings on Thursday. His agent confirmed the deal in an e-mail Thursday morning. The Vikings haven't announced the signing. Harris was cut by the Chiefs this week.

John Carney - ...on 10/16/08 11:14am / New York Giants Comments (0)
	The Giants' kicking situation is not all cleared up, even though we thought it was when Lawrence Tynes announced he's healthy this week. Head coach Tom Coughlin doesn't share Tynes' feelings about immediately taking back over as the Giants' kicker. Hopefully we'll know more by the end of the week, but Coughlin could make another game-day decision. Until then, neither can be trusted in fantasy.

Shaun O'Hara - C ...on 10/16/08 9:56am / New York Giants Comments (0)
	O'Hara is scheduled to be released from the hospital today. He was in there with a toe infection, so he might not just jump right back into practices. Consider him questionable for Week 7.

Fred Taylor - RB ...on 10/16/08 9:54am / Jacksonville Jaguars Comments (0)
	It turns out that Taylor suffered a concussion on Sunday's helmet-to-helmet blow. He claims it's the third concussion of his career. Fantasy-wise, this is nothing to worry about here. Jacksonville has a bye this week, so he'll be back on the field against Cleveland next weekend.

Trent Edwards - QB ...on 10/16/08 9:35am / Buffalo Bills Comments (0)
	Edwards has expressed confidence that he's recovered from his concussion. He'll likely be probable on Friday's injury report, but he'll start against the Chargers on Sunday.

Justin Miller - CB ...on 10/16/08 9:29am / New York Jets Comments (0)
	On Wednesday, Miller was able to practice for the first time this season. He could see his first game action against Oakland on Sunday.

Chad Johnson - WR ...on 10/16/08 9:09am / Cincinnati Bengals Comments (0)
	Johnson thinks that the Bengals are not throwing his way on purpose, as they are still upset over his offseason antics. Despite the usual trade and contract quotes that he loves to feed the media, he also discussed sitting out all of the season. Now he figures the team is using that as a reason to look away from him in the offense. The drama next stops with Mr. Ocho Cinco. Maybe he'll see a ton of targets in Sunday's game against the Steelers, as the team might try to prove him wrong? He's way off his typical production and is hard to trust beyond a flex play or WR3 right now.

Gerald Alexander - S ...on 10/16/08 9:04am / Detroit Lions Comments (0)
	Alexander fractured a vertebrae in Sunday's game. We new it was a neck injury, so this gives us a further understanding of why he's obviously been placed on injured reserve.

Calvin Lowry - ...on 10/16/08 9:01am / Denver Broncos Comments (0)
	Lowry is being moved into the Broncos' starting lineup. He'll take over the safety spot of Marlon McCree. With the Broncos getting lit up on defense, the switch doesn't project to make any sort of difference fantasy-wise.

Darren Sproles - RB ...on 10/16/08 8:58am / San Diego Chargers Comments (0)
	Sproles missed Wednesday's practice with an ankle injury. Even when healthy, the return of LT from a case of turf toe minimizes the speedy back's value.

Jeremy Shockey - ...on 10/16/08 8:56am / New Orleans Saints Comments (0)
	There's a good chance that Shockey will play in Week 7. Fantasy owners would be thrilled to have the Saints' tight end back in their lineups. We'll see how much he's able to practice at the end of the week. Expect his name to appear on the injury report and keep another TE on your roster, but as of now his status is looking good.

Napoleon Harris - LB ...on 10/16/08 8:52am / Kansas City Chiefs Comments (0)
	Harris has signed with the Minnesota Vikings. As expected, it didn't take the linebacker long to find employment with another team. He'll replace E.J. Henderson in the Vikings' lineup.

Calvin Johnson - WR ...on 10/16/08 8:46am / Detroit Lions Comments (0)
	Johnson should be able to start Sunday's game at Houston. He missed practice yesterday, but should participate in part of it today and most of it on Friday. He's the number one receiver in Detroit and should be started every week.

Adam Jones - ...on 10/16/08 8:43am / Dallas Cowboys Comments (0)
	On the wake of his suspension for violating his probation, Jones is entering an alcohol treatment rehab program. He's been suspended for at least four games and Roger Goodell could ban him from the NFL for life.

Willie Parker - RB ...on 10/15/08 10:26pm / Pittsburgh Steelers Comments (0)
	Parker was unexpectedly held out of practice Wednesday after aggravating the sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee. Parker, who hasn't played since Sept. 21, practiced Monday and was expected to play Sunday in Cincinnati, but his return is now in doubt. Parker aggravated the injury during Monday's workout. Parker, a Pro Bowl running back the last two seasons, ran for 138 yards and three touchdowns against Houston and 105 yards against Cleveland in Pittsburgh's first two games. He was held to 20 yards on 13 carries during the 15-6 loss to the Eagles in which he was hurt.

Eli Manning - QB ...on 10/15/08 10:24pm / New York Giants Comments (0)
	Two days after bruising his chest on what he considered a questionable hit, Manning practiced with the New York Giants on Wednesday and said he would play Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. Manning was hurt in the second quarter of Monday night's 35-14 loss to Cleveland when he was driven into the ground by 350-pound tackle Shaun Rogers. No penalty was called, although Manning said he felt one was deserved.
