Week 5 Early Injury Reportby Mark Wimer, Exclusive to Footballguys.com
Quarterback

Jackson missed the game on Sunday, as expected (knee, out on Friday).
Simms left the hospital on Sunday, a week after his emergency spleenectomy. A time table for his return to the field has not been set, and it is likely to be quite a while before he's under center.
Running Back
Alexander missed the game on Sunday as expected due to his broken foot (out on Friday's injury report).
Droughns played well after battling an injured shoulder but was reportedly in pain from his shoulder after the game. He'll be evaluated further this week.
Houston was carted off the field with a left knee injury on Sunday. The early word was that it was a hyperextension. It looked serious as it happened but keep an eye out for more here.

Wide Receiver
Bradley's ongoing struggles with an ankle injury (doubtful on Friday) landed him on the inactive list this past Sunday.
Although Laveranues Coles was attended to by medical staff after the final play of the game on Sunday, and was spotted with his arm in a sling afterwards, initial reports indicate that he is not seriously injured. He'll be evaluated further as the week goes along, but right now this doesn't look like a major injury.
Currie's season is over as his foot injury landed him on IR late last week.
Curtis suffered from migraines during the game on Sunday, and missed a few series of play. He'll be evaluated further during the week.
Henderson's painful shoulder injury kept him on the inactive list on Sunday (he was doubtful to play as of Friday).

Jacobs was inactive on Sunday due to his injured hamstring (he was listed as listed as questionable on Friday's injury report).
Johnson suffered a bruised shoulder during the game on Sunday, but returned to action.

Perry missed the game on Sunday as expected (hip injury, out on Friday's injury report).
Smith started and played well with the hamstring he's been recovering from although he still doesn't seem to be 100%. He gave everyone a scare in the game when he was hit from the side and a defender awkwardly rolled up on the side of his knee. He quickly returned to the game and did not seem to have any issues with the knee.

Kicker
Vinatieri has a nagging right groin injury that sidelined him on Sunday - he was listed as questionable on Friday's injury report. He had been kicking at the end of the week and was feeling much better but coach Tony Dungy elected to hold him out as the field was wet and there was a worry Vinatieri might injure himself on the slick turf.

C Rich Braham continues to miss games due to his injured knee. He was listed as out on Friday.

Gurode had many stiches to close the wounds to his head, and reported blurry vision. Haynesworth was suspended five games for the incident. It was the toughest suspension by far ever handed down for an in game incident.
LG Mike Wahle was forced out of the game on Sunday due to illness (unspecified).
