Week 14 Early Injury Report


Quarterback

QB Brooks Bollinger - MIN

Bollinger injured his left shoulder during the game on Sunday and was unable to continue to play. Coach Childress said Bollinger suffered a sprained AC joint.

QB Marc Bulger - STL

Bulger will have an MRI exam on his sore ribs, most likely today, to make sure there are no breaks or cartilage damage. "It's just for peace of mind," Bulger said after the game on Sunday.

QB Daunte Culpepper - MIA

Culpepper missed the game on Sunday as expected (knee, out on Friday).

QB Charlie Frye - CLE

Frye injured his right wrist during the game on Sunday - there were rumors that the wrist is broken, but Monday, coach Romeo Crennel said x-rays were negative. He was wearing a bulky brace on the arm after the injury and did not return to action vs. K.C.

TE Kellen Winslow had a more negative take when he said: "He broke his wrist and then came back and played on it." Browns coach Romeo Crennel said X-rays taken at Browns Stadium were negative. Frye, though, was having an MRI on Monday at the Cleveland Clinic. The team is awaiting the results of those tests before commenting further. Crenel said it was too early to make a decision on his playing status for this week.

QB Byron Leftwich - JAX

Leftwich is done for the season after landing on IR due to his ankle injury/surgery.

QB Michael Vick - ATL

Vick mildly strained his right hamstring and missed one play during the game vs. Washington, but should be fine to start vs. Tampa Bay, according to coach Mora. This injury doesn't look major as of Monday afternoon.


Running Back

RB Tiki Barber - NYG

Barber revealed to FOX NFL Sunday this weekend that he's been playing with a broken thumb for several weeks: "It's killing me out there," Barber told FOX NFL Sunday. "If you watch us out there and you know me you can tell it's affecting me. I'm trying to protect it a lot and I'm not switching the ball from hand to hand. I'm trying not to hold it with that hand." The bone has started calcifying (healing) on it's own, so surgery won't be required in Barber's case, but he's playing in pain right now.

RB Kevan Barlow - NYJ

Barlow didn't play on Sunday despite being listed as probable on Friday (calf injury).

RB Tatum Bell - DEN

Bell, who has been battling turf toes for weeks, left the field during the 4th quarter vs. Seattle, but did return to action. He said the toes were not a problem though.

"Yeah, I'm good," Bell said. "No more worries. It felt good to be back and get going early, but it doesn't really matter; at the end of the day, we lost. Got the wind knocked out of me late in the game, but, you know, the toe's good," he said. "I'm back, man. It just tough when you know, under the conditions, you know, we weren't able to pull it out."

RB Ronnie Brown - MIA

Brown's broken hand sidelined him as expected (listed as out on Friday).

RB Reggie Bush - NO

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, Bush "tweaked his shoulder landing hard while scoring his fourth touchdown of the day". We'll stay on top of this one to see if it's anything to be concerned about.

RB Maurice Hicks - SF

Hicks injured his ankle during the game on Sunday, but returned to action.

RB LaMont Jordan - OAK

Jordan missed the game on Sunday as expected (knee, out on Friday).

RB Laurence Maroney - NE

Maroney left the game on Sunday after having the wind knocked out, and did not return to action. He'll be evaluated further, but the Patriots are very tight-lipped about injuries, which means we may not get an update from coach Belichick - Maroney owners will want to note his practice status this week as well as the injury report status of this player.

RB Sammy Morris - MIA

Morris sustained an ankle injury early in the game, but he was able to return to action. Right now, this looks like a simple tweak rather than a serious sprain, but Morris will be evaluated further as the week goes along.

RB Montell Owens - JAX

Owens missed the game on Sunday due to his sore shoulder (doubtful on Friday).

RB P.J. Pope - GB

Pope sat out of the game on Sunday due to his sore hamstring (he was listed as questionable on Friday).

RB Michael Robinson - SF

Robinson suffered a neck/shoulder stinger of unspecified severity during the game on Sunday. He'll be evaluated further as the week goes along.

RB Cecil Sapp - DEN

Sapp suffered a left ankle injury of unspecified severity on Sunday. He'll be evaluated further this week.

RB Chester Taylor - MIN

suffered bruised ribs in the second quarter and left the game. He tried to return but was unable to. Coach Brad Childress said "nothing's broken," but it was obvious a problem for Taylor.

"I tried to fight through it," Taylor said, "but it was too much to bear." He'll be evaluated further this week. Ciatrick Fason and Mewelde Moore carried the load for Taylor.

"Unfortunately Chester got banged up, and then it was my turn to go in," Fason said. "It felt good that I got a chance, but on the other end it doesn't feel good that we lost."

RB Michael Turner - SD

Turner sat out of the game on Sunday due to his sore hamstring (he was listed as questionable on Friday).


Wide Receiver

WR Michael Clayton - TB

Clayton sprained his left knee during the game on Sunday and will undergo further examination Monday in Tampa.

WR Devale Ellis - DET

Ellis was inactive on Sunday due to his injured shoulder (he was listed as questionable on Friday).

WR Bobby Engram - SEA

Engram missed another game on Sunday due to his ongoing struggles with an accelerated heart rate caused by a thyroid condition (the "illness" listed in the injury report). He was officially listed as questionable on Friday.

WR Joe Horn - NO

With 7:59 to go in the first quarter, Horn aggravated a groin injury that has limited him in practice and kept him out of back-to-back games in November - he spent the second half in street clothes. No information was available after the game about the extent of the re-injury - Horn will be evaluated further as the week goes along.

WR Chad Jackson - NE

Jackson missed the game on Sunday due to his sore groin (he was listed as questionable on Friday).

WR Keenan McCardell - SD

WR Travis Taylor - MIN

Taylor did not play in the fourth quarter after suffering a rib contusion in the second quarter on Sunday.

WR Hines Ward - PIT

Ward missed the game on Sunday as expected (knee, out on Friday). Cedrick Wilson suffered an ankle injury during the game, leaving the Steelers with the following at WR: Second-year player Nate Washington, who made his first start in place of Ward, and rookie Holmes were on the field when the Steelers used two receivers. Sean Morey entered when the team went to three and Walter Young, signed from the practice squad Nov. 25, came on in 4-wide alignments.

WR Kelley Washington - CIN

Washington continues to miss time due to his sore hamstring (he was listed as questionable on Wednesday).

WR Cedrick Wilson - PIT

Wilson left the Steelers' 20-3 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a high ankle sprain, and coach Bill Cowher said afterwards that he is "not real optimistic" that Wilson will be ready to play against the Browns. With Hines Ward already sidelined, the team will be very thin at WR if Wilson can't go.
