Footballguys.com
Quarterback
QB Daunte Culpepper - DET - Culpepper was knocked out of the game on Sunday due to a hamstring injury - Drew Stanton finished the game under center. Culpepper will be evaluated further this week - he was clearly suffering on the sidelines and could hardly make the stationary bike wheel go. Stay tuned.
QB Trent Edwards - BUF - Edwards' day ended early Sunday - he went to the locker room in the first half due to a concussion. The team judged that he suffered the concussion when Edwards was sandwiched between Jets linebackers Calvin Pace and David Harris during a sack early in the second quarter. His status for week seven is unclear as of Monday, though he was able to travel home with the team. Ryan Fitzpatrick may well get an opportunity to start this week after winning the divisional game vs. NYJ in relief of Edwards.
QB Matthew Stafford - DET - Stafford was inactive on Sunday after being listed as questionable on Friday (knee injury) - he didn't practice on Thursday or Friday last week after being limited on Wednesday. After the game, Stafford said 'No' when asked if his knee might require surgery. Chris Mortensen of ESPN however was reporting a conflicting story Sunday saying that a new MRI had been taken of Stafford's knee and had yet to be examined by Dr. James Andrews in Birmingham. Mortensen reported that it was possible that Andrews could deem surgery necessary. Stay tuned.
