Running Backs

Jaguars RB Maurice Jones-Drew (knee) practiced fully on Friday and will start against the Texans.

Eagles RB Brian Westbrook (ankle) didn't practice all week and is questionable, but should start against the Chiefs.

Cowboys RB Marion Barber (thigh) was limited in practice this week. He is listed as questionable and insists he will play on Monday night. But he's too iffy to start.

Redskins RB Clinton Portis (ankle) is questionable after missing practice on Friday. He'll be a game-time decision against the Lions. Ladell Betts is in line for more carries.

49ers RB Frank Gore (ankle) was limited in drills this week, but is listed as probable and will start against the Vikings. Teammate Glen Coffee (hip) is probable and will serve as his back-up.

Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart (heel) was limited in drills Thursday but should get normal reps against the Cowboys on Monday night.

Browns RB Jamal Lewis (hamstring) is doubtful this week. Jerome Harrison will start against the Ravens.

Bucs RB Carnell Williams (knee) is questionable after a full workout on Friday. Derrick Ward has been given the start against his former team, the Giants.

Broncos RB Knowshon Moreno (groin) did not participate in drills on Friday and is listed as questionable. He should only be considered a bench player at this point.

Saints RB Pierre Thomas (knee) is probable after putting in a full week of reps. Teammate Mike Bell (knee) is out. Lynell Hamilton reportedly will also get carries along with Thomas and Reggie Bush in Buffalo.

Bengals RB Cedric Benson (ankle) practiced fully Friday and will start against the Steelers.

Wide Receivers
Cardinals WR Anquan Boldin (hamstring) returned to full practice reps this week and is listed as probable. Teammate Steve Breaston (knee) saw limited reps this week, and is questionable against the Colts.

Patriots WR Randy Moss (back) and teammate Wes Welker (knee) were both held out of practice Friday and are questionable against the Falcons. We don't like when players don't practice on Friday so you must confirm they are both active on Sunday morning.

Chiefs WR Dwayne Bowe (hamstring) is listed as questionable after limited participation in drills all week. Monitor his status prior to kick-off against the Eagles.

Bucs WR Antonio Bryant (knee) is questionable against the Giants after returning to limited work on Friday. He'll be a game-time decision.

Colts WR Anthony Gonzalez (knee) has been ruled out against the Cardinals.

Texans WR Kevin Walter (hamstring) was limited all week in practice, but was a late upgrade to probable to close the week. He should start against the Jaguars.

Saints WR Lance Moore (hamstring) has been ruled out against the Bills. He has disappointed when healthy and belongs on your bench anyway.

Eagles WR Kevin Curtis (knee) was limited all week in drills and is doubtful, all but ruling him out against the Chiefs. Teammate DeSean Jackson (groin) practiced fully Friday and should start. Jeremy Maclin would make a nice add here.

Seahawks WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh (back) and teammate Deion Branch (hamstring) are both probable this week after full practice reps on Friday.

Giants WR Domenik Hixon (knee) was held out of practice all week, and may not play against the Bucs. Teammate Mario Manningham (shoulder) was back to full speed on Friday, and will start.

Vikings WR Percy Harvin (illness) is questionable after not practicing Thursday or Friday. He will be a game-time decision against the 49ers, but his coaches believe he'll be able to play.

Bengals WR Chris Henry (quad) is probable and should see his normal targets against the Steelers.

Raiders WR Chaz Schilens (foot) is out against the Broncos.
 
Other Positions

Saints TE Jeremy Shockey (ankle) is probable and will start against the Bills.

Falcons K Jason Elam (left hamstring) is listed as probable and will be active against the Patriots.

Browns K Phil Dawson (right calf) is questionable against the Ravens. The team met with free agent K Matt Bryant this week, so Dawson could very well be inactive this week.

Packers K Mason Crosby (abdomen) is listed as probable and will be active against the Rams.

Titans K Rob Bironas (right ankle) is questionable, but should be active against the Jets.
