Injuries to Watch: Week 14

Quarterback

• Matt Ryan, Falcons - Coach Mike Smith says that he likes the progress he's been seeing from Ryan. Smith's hands are tied until Ryan becomes medically cleared. If that happens, Ryan status for Sunday will likely be a game-time decision.

• Matt Schaub, Texans - Schaub is going to wear a brace on his left shoulder on Sunday, but he is going to play. He practiced in full on Thursday.

• Matt Hasselbeck, Seahawks - Hasselbeck practiced in full on Thursday and says he felt better on Thursday then he did on Wednesday. His health keeps improving as the week goes on, but the quarterback claims he's banged up. He should play on Sunday.

• Jake Delhomme, Panthers - Delhomme's finger has caused him to miss practice this week and he will not play on Sunday.

• Kurt Warner, Cardinals - Warner looked good in practice on Thursday, showing no ill effects from his hip injury. He'll play on Monday night.

• Vince Young, Titans - Young re-injured his knee in practice on Thursday as he stepped on one of his lineman's feet. Coach Fisher still expects Young to start.

Running Back

• Chris Johnson, Titans - Johnson hasn't been practicing much this week but says that his ankle is fine. He was limited ion Thursday and says he'll play on Sunday.

• Donald Brown, Colts - Brown missed last week's game and hasn't practiced at all this week. He's probably not going to play in Week 14.

• Steven Jackson, Rams - Jackson hasn't practiced all week, but is expected to play this Sunday. In fact, Jackson hasn't practiced for three weeks but has played each Sunday, rushing for over 100 yards in two of those three games.

• DeAngelo Williams, Panthers - Williams practiced in full on Friday and should start this Sunday.

• Brian Westbrook, Eagles - Westbrook still hasn't been ruled out of the Eagle's Week 14 game yet. Although it's unlikely he'll return from his concussion this week.

• Jonathan Stewart, Panthers - Stewart is also expected to play on Sunday after being a full participant in practice. It looks like Carolina will have both of their running backs available to them.

• Michael Turner, Falcons - Turner did not practice on Friday, in fact he hasn't practiced all week. He will be a game-time decision on Sunday against the Saints.

• Ahmad Bradshaw, Giants - Bradshaw returned to practice on Friday and is listed as probable on the injury report. He should play on Sunday.

Wide Receiver

• Donnie Avery, Rams - Avery has a separated shoulder but practiced on a limited basis on Thursday anyway. He'll probably play through the pain on Sunday, but won't be much help to your fantasy team with an injured Kyle Boller at quarterback.

• Bernard Berrian, Vikings - Berrian still hasn't completely recovered from his hamstring injury, but he is getting better. He was limited in practice on Thursday, but should play on Sunday.

• Jeremy Maclin, Eagles - Maclin returned to practice on Friday from a foot injury. He's listed as questionable, but is expected to play this weekend.

• Mike Sims-Walker, Jaguars - Sims-Walker was already suffering from a tender knee when he hurt his calf during practice on Thursday. He sat out of practice on Friday and isn't expected to play on Sunday.

• Devin Hester, Bears - Hester did not practice on Friday because of a calf injury and isn't expected to play on Sunday. He hasn't been ruled out yet though.

• Percy Harvin, Vikings - Harvin missed his third straight practice on Friday with recurring migraine headaches. The Vikings think he'll be ready to play on Sunday.

• Nate Washington, Titans - Washington is back to practicing fully and his ankle will be ready to go on Sunday.

• Lance Moore, Saints - Moore was limited in practice on Thursday with a hamstring and calf injury. This injury has been lingering and has caused him to lose his starting job to Robert Meachem. If Moore plays, it will be in a diminished role.

Tight End

• Brent Celek, Eagles - Celek has an injured thumb, but has practiced in full two days in a row. He should have no problems playing on Sunday.

• Visanthe Shiancoe, Vikings - Shiancoe has been limited in practice all week injured ribs. He's been dealing with this issue for weeks now and has played through the pain. He'll do the same on Sunday.
