Week Nine fantasy football
Weekend injury update
Saturday, Oct. 28, 2000
|
| The availability of Titans RB Eddie George
for Monday night’s game against Washington will be decided just before kickoff.
George sprained a ligament in his right knee early in a 14-6 win over Baltimore last week. George
participated in some drills Saturday with his right knee taped.
"If it feels good and I'm confident, then I'm going to go," George said
Saturday. "If it doesn't, then I'm just not going to play. I'll just get ready for
next week."
Added Titans head coach Jeff Fisher, "He worked some more of the soreness and
swelling out. We'll take him out a few hours prior to kickoff, put him through the drills
that we need to, and then we'll make our decision."
After suffering a concussion last week, Seattle QB Brock Huard has reportedly
been placed on the inactive list for Sunday’s game against Kansas City. As a result, Jon
Kitna, who also suffered a concussion during the Raiders game, will get the nod at QB
with Matt Lytle as the backup. … QB Elvis Grbac has recovered from his
elbow injury and will start for the Chiefs.
Miami MLB Zach Thomas will miss Sunday’s game against Green Bay. Thomas has
been fitted with a cast for his sprained right ankle and will remain in the cast for a
week to 10 days.
Jaguars WR Jimmy Smith is listed as probable for Sunday’s game against
Dallas with a bruised knee.
Bills TE Jay Riemersma is questionable for the Jets game with a knee injury.
The Giants will decide this weekend whether to use Brad Daluiso or Jaret
Holmes as their placekicker Sunday. |
