Running Back
RB Joseph Addai - IND - Addai was forced out of the game on Sunday with a shoulder injury - according to coach Dungy, he could have returned, but the game was well in hand so the team opted to keep him out. He'll be evaluated further as the week goes along.

RB Marion Barber - DAL - Barber was inactive for the game vs. Pittsburgh after being listed as questionable to play on Friday (toe injury).
RB Marion Barber - DAL - Barber didn't make the trip to Pittsburgh due to his dislocated pinky toe - a decision that irked Cowboys' owner Jerry Jones: "His toe is good enough to play," Jones said. "We can support that toe and he can come play. He's just not comfortable playing... I don't know if it's going to be any different than it was this week." Stay tuned, as Barber's reaction to being called out by the owner is going to be interesting. Hopefully, his toe will get better thanks to the week of rest.
