| 4. | Colts | Federkeil placed on IR | (KFFL) Paul Kuharsky, of ESPN.com, reports the Indianapolis Colts have placed Dan Federkeil (concussion) on Injured Reserve. | 24 minutes | |
| 5. | Gonzalez, Anthony | Ind | (SportsGrumblings) Colts WR Anthony Gonzalez still out | 25 minutes | |
| 6. | Vinatieri, Adam | Ind | (SportsGrumblings) Colys K Adam Vinatieri out | 26 minutes | |
| 7. | Youboty among Bills' Week 11 inactives | (Rotoworld) Bills declared CB Ashton Youboty, QB Brian Brohm, OT Demetrius Bell, WR James Hardy, TE Joe Klopfenstein, DL Marcus Stroud, WR Steve Johnson, CB Terrence McGee inactive for Week 11. Analysis: Youboty is out indefinitely after spraining his ankle in Week 10. The Bills are fairly banged up for their Week 11 matchup with the Jaguars. | 26 minutes | |
| 8. | Jones, Julius | Sea | (SportsGrumblings) Seahawks RB Julius Jones inactive | 28 minutes | |
| 9. | Colts move Federkeil to IR | (Rotoworld) Colts placed OL Dan Federkeil (concussion) on injured reserve, ending his season. Analysis: Federkeil was nothing more than a deep reserve. He'll be a restricted free agent after the season. | 28 minutes | |
| 10. | Saints | Hamilton active, to see short-yardage work | (KFFL) Jeff Duncan, of the New Orleans Times-Picayune, reports New Orleans Saints RB Lynell Hamilton is active for Week 11 and will likely receive some short-yardage and goal line work. | 28 minutes | |
| 11. | Cribbs, Josh | Cle | (SportsGrumblings) Browns WR/KR Josh Cribbs will play today | 29 minutes | |
| 12. | Vrabel, Mike | KC | (SportsGrumblings) Chiefs LB Mike Vrabel not dressed | 30 minutes | |
| 13. | Sims, Ernie | Det | (SportsGrumblings) Lions LB Ernie Sims inactive today | 30 minutes | |
| 14. | Colts | Garcon active in Week 11 | (KFFL) The NFL Network's Jason La Canfora reports Indianapolis Colts WR Pierre Garcon (ankle) is active for the team's Week 11 game against the Baltimore Ravens. | 31 minutes | |
| 15. | White, DeWayne | Det | (SportsGrumblings) Lions DL Dwayne White out | 31 minutes | |
| 16. | Pierre Garcon active for Colts vs. Balti... | (Rotoworld) Pierre Garcon (ankle) is active for the Colts Sunday, as expected. Analysis: Garcon was listed as "questionable" but put in a full practice both Thursday and Friday. He's healthy, but is nothing more than a WR3 option as he hasn't caught more than five passes in a game all season. | 31 minutes | |
| 17. | Mathis, Rashean | Jax | (SportsGrumblings) Jags CB Rashean Mathis out today | 31 minutes | |
| 18. | Colts | Freeney active in Week 11 | (KFFL) The NFL Network's Jason La Canfora reports Indianapolis Colts DE Dwight Freeney (hip) is active for the team's Week 11 game against the Baltimore Ravens. | 32 minutes | |
| 19. | Jaguars declare inactives for Week 11 ma... | (Rotoworld) Jaguars declared DL Derek Landri, DL Greg Peterson, LB Justin Durant, OG Maurice Williams, OL Paul McQuistan, CB Rashean Mathis, WR Tiquan Underwood and OT Tra Thomas inactive for Week 11. Analysis: The Jaguars are taking on the Bills in a wet and windy Buffalo. | 32 minutes | |
| 20. | Hayden among Colts' inactives | (Rotoworld) Colts declared CB Kelvin Hayden, K Adam Vinatieri, WR Anthony Gonzalez, RB Mike Hart, S Aaron Francisco, TE Gijon Robinson, G Mike Pollak and QB Jim Sorgi inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens. Analysis: There are reports out there that Gonzalez will try to return for Week 12, but we're skeptical about that. | 33 minutes | |
| 21. | Ravens | Heap starting | (KFFL) NFL.com reports Baltimore Ravens TE Todd Heap (chest) is active and will start versus the Indianapolis Colts in Week 11. | 34 minutes | |
| 22. | Polamalu, Troy | Pit | (SportsGrumblings) Steelers S Troy Polamalu out today | 35 minutes | |
| 23. | Kirschke, Travis | Pit | (SportsGrumblings) Steelers DL Travis Kirschke out | 35 minutes | |
| 24. | Redskins inactives | (FFChamps) The Washington Redskins have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the Dallas Cowboys: RB Clinton Portis, CB Kevin Barnes, C Edwin Williams, TE Chris Cooley, LB Robert Henson, OT Mike Williams, DT Albert Haynesworth and DE Renaldo Wynn. Analysis: Ladell Betts will start again in Portis' absence. Hayneworth is the plug in the middle of the Skins' defense, and his loss will open running l... (More) | 37 minutes | |
| 25. | Ngata active for Ravens | (Rotoworld) Ravens NT Haloti Ngata (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Colts. Analysis: This is big for the Ravens as they missed their run stuffer against the Bengals in Week 9. The sledding is going to be a little rougher for Donald Brown and Jospeh Addai. | 37 minutes | |
| 26. | Suggs, Terrell | Bal | (SportsGrumblings) Ravens LB Terrell Suggs inactive today | 38 minutes | |
| 27. | Julius Jones among Seahawks' inactives | (Rotoworld) Seahawks declared RB Julius Jones, CB Josh Wilson, OL Mike Gibson, OL Mansfield Wrotto, TE Cameron Morrah, DT Craig Terrill, DE Derek Walker and QB Mike Teel inactive for Week 11 against the Vikings. Analysis: Jones was ruled out earlier in the week, leaving Justin Forsett as the starting running back in a very tough matchup. | 38 minutes | |
| 28. | Ross, Aaron | NYG | (SportsGrumblings) Giants DB Aaron Ross dressed for first game this season | 39 minutes | |
| 29. | Bucs declare inactives | (Rotoworld) Antonio Bryant is active Sunday against the Saints. Analysis: Bryant will play in a rotation with Maurice Stovall and helps Josh Freeman, but isn't a fantasy option on his own. The Bucs' inactive players are WR Yamon Figurs, CB Mike Mickens, OG Shawn Murphy, OT James Lee, WR Brian Clark, DT Dre Moore, third QB Byron Leftwich, and nickel CB Elbert Mack. | 39 minutes | |
| 30. | Winfield, Antoine | Min | (SportsGrumblings) Vikings CB Antoine Winfield inactive today | 39 minutes | |
| 31. | Beck among Ravens inactives | (Rotoworld) Ravens declared third QB John Beck, OLB Terrell Suggs, RB Matt Lawrence, OL Tony Moll, T Oniel Cousins, DT Brandon McKinney, RB Jalen Parmele and NT Kelly Talavou inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts. Analysis: Outside of Suggs, who will now reportedly miss about a month, the Ravens are very healthy. Todd Heap and Haloti Ngata were both question marks, but they are both active for this big AFC showdown. | 40 minutes | |
| 32. | Ravens | Ngata active | (KFFL) NFL.com reports Baltimore Ravens DL Haloti Ngata (ankle) is active and will start versus the Indianapolis Colts in Week 11. | 41 minutes | |
| 33. | Turner, Michael | Atl | (SportsGrumblings) RB Michael Turner out | 41 minutes | |
| 34. | Snelling, Jason | Atl | (SportsGrumblings) Falcons RB Jason Snelling to start Analysis: With Turner and Norwood inactive, Snelling figures to shoulder the load against the Giants today. | 42 minutes | |
| 35. | Vikings inactives | (FFChamps) The Minnesota Vikings have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the Seattle Seahawks: CB Antoine Winfield, QB Sage Rosenfels, RB Albert Young, C Jon Cooper, LB Erin Henderson, DT Fred Evans, WR Jaymar Johnson and DL Jayme Mitchell. Analysis: Winfield is the only notable on this list. He warmed-up today with the hopes of playing, but the Vikings are being cautious, and will keep him out one more week. Bernard Berrian has been listed as questionable ... (More) | 42 minutes | |
| 36. | Norwood, Jerious | Atl | (SportsGrumblings) Falcons RB Jerious Norwood inactive | 42 minutes | |
| 37. | Browns | Cribbs active for Week 11 | (KFFL) ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Cleveland Browns WR Josh Cribbs (neck) is active for the team's Week 11 game despite suffering a concussion last week. | 43 minutes | |
| 38. | Heap is active | (Rotoworld) Todd Heap (ribs) is active for the Ravens' game against the Colts Sunday. Analysis: Heap was a game-time decision, but he's a tough guy and he'll surprisingly play. He's nowhere close to a fantasy option as he's not 100 percent and hasn't had more than 51 receiving yards since Week 1. | 43 minutes | |
| 39. | Porter, Tracy | NO | (SportsGrumblings) Saints CB Porter inactive | 43 minutes | |
| 40. | Hartley, Garrett | NO | (SportsGrumblings) Saints K Garrett Hartley still out | 44 minutes | |
| 41. | Ellis, Sedrick | NO | (SportsGrumblings) Saints DT Sedrick Ellis not dressed for today's game | 45 minutes | |
| 42. | Bush, Reggie | NO | (SportsGrumblings) Saints RB Reggie Bush inactive today | 45 minutes | |
| 43. | Saints inactives | (FFChamps) The New Orleans Saints have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers: RB Reggie Bush, WR Lance Moore, CB Chris McAlister, DT Sedrick Ellis, CBs Jabari Greer and Tracy Porter, K Garrett Hartley, and LB Jonathan Casillas. Analysis: Bush finally appeared to be working his way into the Saints' offense in 2009, but his surgically-repaired knee flared up on him this week, and he will not play today against the Bucs. The defense is sh... (More) | 45 minutes | |
| 44. | Moore, Lance | NO | (SportsGrumblings) Saints WR Lance Moore out | 45 minutes | |
| 45. | Pierce, Antonio | NYG | (SportsGrumblings) Giants LB Antonio Pierce inactive today | 46 minutes | |
| 46. | Lewis, Cribbs both active for Browns | (Rotoworld) Jamal Lewis (ankle) and Joshua Cribbs (neck) are both active for Week 11 against the Lions. Analysis: Lewis was listed as questionable and isn't a very good fantasy option anyway. | 46 minutes | |
| 47. | Packers declare inactives | (Rotoworld) Packers declared RB Ahman Green, WR Biren Ealy, S Matt Giordano, T Breno Giacomini, T Allen Barbre, DE Michael Montgomery, and LB Jeremy Thompson inactive for Week 11 against San Francisco. Analysis: Mark Tauscher starts at right tackle. Green Bay isn't missing any difference makers at home against the Niners. We like them to cover the 6.5-point spread. | 46 minutes | |
| 48. | Saints | Bush inactive | (KFFL) NFL.com reports New Orleans Saints RB Reggie Bush (knee) is inactive against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 11. | 46 minutes | |
| 49. | Portis, Clinton | Wsh | (SportsGrumblings) Redskins RB Clinton Portis out | 47 minutes | |
| 50. | Vrabel among Chiefs' Week 11 inactives | (Rotoworld) Chiefs declared LB Mike Vrabel, QB Matt Gutierrez, CB Donald Washington, RB Dantrell Savage, LB David Herron, LB Justin Rogers, C/G Andy Alleman and TE Jake O'Connell inactive for Week 11. Analysis: The Chiefs, 2-7, are hosting the Steelers, 6-3, in Kansas City. | 47 minutes | |
| 51. | Haynesworth, Albert | Wsh | (SportsGrumblings) Redskins DT Haynesworth inactive today | 48 minutes | |
| 52. | Harrison, Robiskie among Browns inactive... | (Rotoworld) Browns declared RB Jerome Harrison, WR Brian Robiskie, DB Coye Francies, LB David Veikune, OL Billy Yates, WR Jake Allen and LB Arnold Harrison inactive for Week 11 against the Lions. Analysis: Harrison has been passed on the depth chart by Chris Jennings, while Robiskie has one catch all season. | 48 minutes | |
| 53. | Roddy White active Sunday against the Gi... | (Rotoworld) Roddy White is active Sunday against the Giants, as expected. Analysis: White was listed as questionable on the injury report coming in, but hasn't missed a game in his five-year career. The Giants have struggled badly to cover No. 1 receivers of late, so White is a high-quality WR1 play on Sunday. | 48 minutes | |
| 54. | Hamlin among Cowboys inactives | (Rotoworld) Cowboys declared S Ken Hamlin, PR Allen Rossum, TE Jason Williams, G Montrae Holland, C Duke Preston, OT Marc Colombo and LB Curtis Johnson inactive for Sunday's game against the Redskins. Analysis: Johnson has been flagged for three penalities in the last two games so he's "down" in favor of Steve Octavien. Otherwise, no surprises for the Cowboys. | 49 minutes | |
| 55. | 49ers declare inactives | (Rotoworld) 49ers declared WR Brandon Jones, third QB Nate Davis, LB Takeo Spikes, CB Keith Smith, CB Nate Clements, OT Joe Staley, C Cody Wallace, and DE Ricky Jean-Francois inactive for Week 11. Analysis: Jones is a $16.5 million healthy scratch. The 49ers aren't kidding when they say they'll play the players that give them the best chance to win. Isaac Bruce, Arnaz Battle, and Josh Morgan have been deemed more valuable. | 50 minutes | |
| 56. | Polamalu among Steelers' Week 11 inactiv... | (Rotoworld) Steelers declared S Troy Polamalu, QB Dennis Dixon, FB Carey Davis, G Kraig Urbik, T Tony Hill, DE Sunny Harris, WR Shaun McDonald and DE Travis Kirschke inactive for Week 11 against the Chiefs. Analysis: Polamalu is still sidelined by a PCL strain and is doubtful to return by Week 12. Other than that, the Steelers are in decent shape. | 50 minutes | |
| 57. | Falcons inactives | (FFChamps) The Atlanta Falcons have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the New York Giants: RB Michael Turner, RB Jerious Norwood, WR Brian Finneran, LB Spencer Adkins, OT Garrett Reynolds, DT Trey Lewis, OL Quinn Ojinnaka, and third QB John Parker Wilson. Analysis: Jason Snelling will get the start at running back for the Falcons, and the answer to the question of how much time would be split between he and More) | 51 minutes | |
| 58. | Sims among Lions inactives | (Rotoworld) Lions declared LB Ernie Sims, QB Drew Stanton, DL Dewayne White, WR Derrick Williams, S Kalvin Pearson, FB Terrelle Smith, OL Melvin Fowler and OL Jon Jansen inactive for Week 11 against the Browns. Analysis: Sims remains out with a torn hamstring, but still hopes to play again this season. | 51 minutes | |
| 59. | Portis among Redskins inactives | (Rotoworld) Redskins declared RB Clinton Portis, CB Kevin Barnes, C Edwin Williams, TE Chris Cooley, LB Robert Henson, OT Mike Williams, DT Albert Haynesworth and DE Renaldo Wynn inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys. Analysis: Portis is still a long shot to play in Week 12 and will share carries with Ladell Betts if/when he returns. Haynesworth's (ankle) loss is a big blow to the 'Skins run defense. | 53 minutes | |
| 60. | Winfield still inactive for Vikings | (Rotoworld) Vikings declared CB Antoine Winfield, QB Sage Rosenfels, RB Albert Young, C Jon Cooper, LB Erin Henderson, DT Fred Evans, WR Jaymar Johnson and DL Jayme Mitchell inactive for Week 11 against the Seahawks. Analysis: Winfield went through a pregame workout in the hopes of playing, but the Vikings decided to play it safe and leave him out for one more week. Bernard Berrian is active after being questionable with a hip injury. | 55 minutes | |
| 61. | Ravens | Suggs to miss about a month | (KFFL) Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports Baltimore Ravens LB Terrell Suggs (knee) is expected to miss about a month of action. | 56 minutes | |
| 62. | Saints declare inactives | (Rotoworld) Saints declared RB Reggie Bush, WR Lance Moore, CB Chris McAlister, DT Sedrick Ellis, CBs Jabari Greer and Tracy Porter, K Garrett Hartley, and LB Jonathan Casillas inactive for Week 11. Analysis: Bush didn't make the flight to Tampa Bay. Pierre Thomas is a strong bet for 18-20 touches and 100+ rushing yards in this favorable matchup. Robert Meachem also gets a slight value bump with Moore (high ankle sprain) still out. | 56 minutes | |
| 63. | Steelers | Polamalu to miss about a month | (KFFL) Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports Pittsburgh Steelers SS Troy Polamalu (knee) is expected to miss about a month of action. | 57 minutes | |
| 64. | Falcons RBs Norwood, Turner are both ina... | (Rotoworld) Jerious Norwood (hip) and Michael Turner (ankle) are both inactive for Week 11 against the Giants. Analysis: Norwood got some practice time in this week, but it wasn't enough to get him cleared for his usual duties. Jason Snelling will be an every-down back at New York. The Falcons' other inactives are WR Brian Finneran, LB Spencer Adkins, OT Garrett Reynolds, DT Trey Lewis, OL Quinn Ojinnaka, and third QB John Parker Wilson. | 59 minutes | |
| 65. | Browns | Harrison inactive | (KFFL) Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports Cleveland Browns RB Jerome Harrison has been deactivated for Week 11. | 1 hour | |
| 66. | Giants inactives | (FFChamps) The New York Giants have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the Atlanta Falcons: WR Sinorice Moss, RB Gartrell Johnson, WR Ramses Barden, LB Antonio Pierce, OL Adam Koets, OT Guy Whimper, CB Domonique Johnson, and CB Kevin Dockery. Analysis: Pierce was diagnosed with a bulging disc in his neck on Friday, and will be out indefinitely. He is the only Giants' scratch due to injury, and he will be missed by a Giants' run defense that has already been more vulnerable this season than in recent years. | 1 hour | |
| 67. | Smoot to start in place of benched CB Ro... | (Rotoworld) Redskins CB Fred Smoot will start in place of benched CB Carlos Rogers on Sunday against the Cowboys. Analysis: Rogers fell for a Brandon Marshall double-move which resulted in a touchdown in last week's win. Smoot is an obviously weaker option but coach Jim Zorn is making a point. It's bad timing for Rogers, as he will be an unrestricted free agent after the season. | 1 hour | |
| 68. | Saints | Sharper to start | (KFFL) Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports New Orleans Saints FS Darren Sharper (knee) will return to the starting lineup during Week 11. He missed last week's game with a knee injury. | 1 hour | |
| 69. | Giants declare inactives | (Rotoworld) Giants declared WR Sinorice Moss, RB Gartrell Johnson, WR Ramses Barden, LB Antonio Pierce, OL Adam Koets, OT Guy Whimper, CB Domonique Johnson, and CB Kevin Dockery inactive for Week 11. Analysis: There are no surprises on this list. The only injured player is Pierce, who was diagnosed with a bulging disc in his neck Friday and is out indefinitely. | 1 hour | |
| 70. | Smoot starting for Redskins | (Rotoworld) Fred Smoot is starting in place of Carlos Rogers for the Redskins Sunday. Analysis: Rogers was benched last week after getting torched on a double move by Brandon Marshall. He's apparently still in the doghouse. Rogers is much more talented than the declining Smoot, so upgrade the Cowboys' passing game slightly. | 1 hour | |
| 71. | Haynesworth out for Skins' matchup with ... | (Rotoworld) Albert Haynesworth (ankle) will not play on Sunday against the Cowboys. Analysis: Haynesworth didn't practice during the week and was listed as questionable. Kedric Golston will get the start. Haynesworth has been dealing with nagging injuries all season and will miss his first game of the year. Upgrade the Cowboys' Marion Barber in this matchup. | 1 hour | |
| 72. | Larry Johnson to get eight carries? | (Rotoworld) According to ESPN's Chris Mortensen, Larry Johnson should get "eight carries or so" Sunday at Oakland. Analysis: Mortensen says L.J.'s touch total will be dictated by the "flow of the game," however, so even eight carries may be an overestimation. L.J. hardly knows the offense after signing with the Bengals a week ago. He'll get some work in if the Bengals jump out to an early lead, but Johnson isn't a fantasy option. | 1 hour | |
| 73. | Albert Haynesworth will not play for Red... | (Rotoworld) Albert Haynesworth (ankle) will not play against the Cowboys Sunday. Analysis: Kedric Golston gets the start and is obviously a big downgrade. Upgrade Marion Barber's matchup, especially considering how much the Cowboys emphasized the run this week. Haynesworth's bulk in the middle will be sorely missed. | 1 hour | |
| 74. | Falcons | White to play against New York | (KFFL) ESPN reports Atlanta Falcons WR Roddy White (knee) will play during Week 11 versus the New York Giants. | 1 hour | |
| 75. | Simms will start for Broncos against Bol... | (Rotoworld) ESPN's Chris Mortensen confirms that Chris Simms will start for the Broncos on Sunday against the Chargers. Analysis: Starting Simms is the smart move for the Broncos, as they don't want to risk further injury to Kyle Orton's ankle. Simms was awful in relief of Orton last week, completing just 3-of-13 pass attempts with a pick. Look for the Broncos to try and pound the ball on the ground today. | 1 hour | |
| 76. | Falcons | Turner will not play | (KFFL) Rachel Nichols, of ESPN, reports Atlanta Falcons RB Michael Turner (ankle) will not play during Week 11. He will be inactive. RB Jason Snelling will start in his place. | 1 hour | |
| 77. | Turner will not play, Snelling starts fo... | (Rotoworld) ESPN's Rachel Nichols reports that Michael Turner (ankle) will not play on Sunday against the Giants, and Jason Snelling will get the start for the Falcons. Analysis: Turner was listed as doubtful on the injury report and has no timetable for return. He is likely out for a couple of weeks with a high ankle sprain. Snelling and Aaron Stecker will try to fill in as best as they can for the Falcons. Struggling QB Matt Ryan will have to carry the offense with Turner absent. | 1 hour | |
| 78. | Kyle Orton | (RotoWire) As of Saturday afternoon, Orton's ankle had not recovered enough to play, but the Broncos plan to give him one more try Sunday morning at Invesco Field, the Denver Post reports. Analysis: Unless a good night's sleep sleep does wonders for Orton's ankle, look for Chris Simms to be Broncos' starting quarterback Sunday against the Chargers. Even if Orton does suit up, he'd be a risk and, at best, he'd be hobbled. Factor in that the Broncos kick off during the second set of games this week, and this is a situation to avoid. | 2 hours | |
| 79. | Adrian Wilson | (RotoWire) Wilson (groin, probable) will probably be at the line of scrimmage on nearly every play on Sunday against the Rams, the East Valley Tribune reports. Analysis: The Cardinals are much more concerned with St. Louis' running attack than their passing game. As a result, Wilson could be on track for a good tackling day and he might get the sack he needs in order to become the 10th player in NFL history to accumulate 20 career sacks and 20 career interceptions. | 2 hours | |
| 80. | White, Roddy | Atl | (SportsGrumblings) Falcons WR White will play Sunday Analysis: Falcons WR Roddy White will play Sunday against the Giants, a league source told NFL Network's Jason La Canfora.<p> White was limited in practice this week with a knee injury, but he hasn't missed a game this season. He's officially listed as questionable. (NFL.com) | 2 hours | |
| 81. | Byrd to take part in pre-game warmups | (Rotoworld) Bills rookie FS Jairus Byrd (questionable, groin) will take part in warmups today and is hopeful to play when the Bills take on the Jags. Analysis: Byrd was limited in practice all week. He leads the league with eight interceptions and has recorded a pick in five straight games. The team signed Cary Harris off their practice squad on Friday, and special teamer Todd Johnson would likely draw the start if Byrd can't go. | 2 hours | |
| 82. | Johnson to start in Stroud's place for B... | (Rotoworld) Bills DT Spencer Johnson will start in place of Marcus Stroud (knee) on Sunday. Analysis: After injuring his knee in last week's loss, Stroud wasn't able to practice all week. The Bills may also be without other starting DT Kyle Williams, who is questionable with a sprained MCL. John McCargo would make his first start of the season if Williams can't go. Maurice Jones-Drew is licking his chops at this matchup. | 3 hours | |
| 83. | Falcons' White will play on Sunday @ NYG | (Rotoworld) Roddy White (questionable, knee) will play on Sunday when the Falcons take on the Giants in the Meadowlands. Analysis: White has been listed as questionable for the past three weeks and hasn't missed a game. He'll start against a struggling Giants' defense coming off their bye week while getting CB Aaron Ross back. | 3 hours | |
| 84. | Strief to start for Saints at LT over Bu... | (Rotoworld) Saints T Zach Strief will start at LT over Jermon Bushrod on Sunday. Analysis: Both Strief and Bushrod will play extensively, though. Bushrod has done a more than admirable job filling in for Pro Bowl LT Jammal Brown (hip, sports hernia) this season, so the move is a bit of a surprise. | 3 hours | |
| 85. | Haynesworth is a game-time decision Sund... | (Rotoworld) Albert Haynesworth (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Cowboys but is still unlikely to play. Analysis: Haynesworth's status has been in question all week with him not practicing and wearing a walking boot. If he can't go, Kedric Golston will start in his place, and it will be a huge upgrade to the Cowboys' running backs, mainly Marion Barber. | 3 hours | |
| 86. | Nick Harper | (RotoWire) Coach Jeff Fisher continued to be noncommittal on Saturday whether Harper (broken forearm) will be back on Monday night, the Tennessean reports. Analysis: When Harper does return, he will be wearing a protective brace to protect his forearm that has a plate in it for healing purposes. | 3 hours | |
| 87. | Ross will play in nickel defense for Gia... | (Rotoworld) Giants CB Aaron Ross (hamstring) will return to game action Sunday and play when the team is in their nickel defense. Analysis: When the Giants send in their nickel package, Ross will line up on the outside with Terrell Thomas covering the slot. Thomas will likely draw the start opposite Corey Webster until Ross proves he's healthy and gets back up to game speed. | 3 hours | |
| 88. | Kenny Britt | (RotoWire) Britt will be starting at receiver for the second straight game Monday, the Associated Press reports. Analysis: Britt continues to get the starting nod while Justin Gage (back) is injured. Last week he only had two catches. | 3 hours | |
| 89. | Fins plan to finish season without Fergu... | (Rotoworld) The Dolphins are planning to finish out the season without NT Jason Ferguson (knee). Analysis: Ferguson injured his right knee in Thursday night's win in Carolina. Beat writer Omar Kelly says that with six weeks remaining, it is likely that he will placed on season-ending injured reserve. Ferguson, 34 at the end of the month, is in the last year of his contract, so his career may be over. Tony McDaniel and Randy Starks will fill in. | 4 hours | |
| 90. | Harris to return kicks for Eagles on Sun... | (Rotoworld) DB Macho Harris will return kicks for the Eagles on Sunday. Analysis: Harris will take over the duties with Quintin Demps (ankle) out. It was between Harris and rookie WR Jeremy Maclin, but Maclin is an every-down receiver who doesn't need to be taking the big shots like he took last week in the return game. | 4 hours | |
| 91. | Report: Simms expected to start for Bron... | (Rotoworld) It will take an "overnight medical miracle" for Kyle Orton (ankle) to start Sunday, according to the Denver Post. Analysis: The Post fully expects Chris Simms to get the nod, although Orton has not been ruled out. Orton will likely test the ankle in pregame tomorrow, but no one should be waiting on this decision considering the 4:15 ET start time. Simms was wretched in relief of Orton last week, completing just 3-of-13 attempts with an interception. | 10 hours | |
| 92. | Robinson not playing vs. Ravens | (Rotoworld) Colts TE Gijon Robinson (concussion) did not travel with the team for Sunday's game against the Ravens. Analysis: Robinson suffered the concussion against the Patriots last week. Robinson has just six catches on the season. | 10 hours | |
| 93. | Slaton regains starting job | (FFChamps) The Houston Chronicle reported Saturday that Houston Texans' running back Steve Slaton will be the starter for Monday night's game against the Tennessee Titans. The Texans had a bye in Week 10, but Ryan Moats got the start in Week 9 (a 20-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts) after Slaton had been benched the previous game due to his league-leading eight fumbles on the season. Analysis: We kind-of figured it was just a matter of time before Slaton got his job back. Moats is a serviceable NFL back, but he just doesn't possess the all-around sk... (More) | 13 hours | |
| 94. | Westbrook injury update | (TheHuddle) The Philadelphia Daily News, reports Philadelphia Eagles RB Brian Westbrook (concussion) was not allowed to attend team meetings this week, in addition to sitting out practice due to a concussion. 'This is on the doctor's orders: Back off, let him rest, that's the plan the doctor had for him,' head coach Andy Reid said. 'Next week he can start going to meetings and some things. We'll see how he feels as he goes.' Westbrook will not be examined again until after the team's Week 12 game, and his progress will determine when, or if, he returns this season. Analysis: It appears more likely that Westbr... (More) | 13 hours | |
| 95. | Brown injury update | (TheHuddle) The South Florida Sun-Sentinel, report Miami Dolphins RB Ronnie Brown (foot) underwent surgery Friday, Nov. 20, to repair a Lisfranc fracture to his right foot and head coach Tony Sparano said the surgery 'went well.' Although it is uncertain how long Brown's recovery time will be, OG Donald Thomas suffered a similar injury in the opening game last year and began training four months later. Analysis: All signs point to a full recovery for Brown who is in a contract year this season.

| 96. | Pierce injury update | (TheHuddle) The New York Daily News, reports New York Giants LB Antonio Pierce (neck) will likely miss up to six weeks, and possibly longer, due to a bulging disk in his neck. LB Chase Blackburn figures to start at middle linebacker in Pierce's absence. Analysis: The news continues to get worse for Pierce and the Giants who will more than likely be without his services for the remainder of the regular season.

| 97. | Slaton to start in Week 11 | (TheHuddle) The Houston Chronicle, reports Houston Texans RB Steve Slaton will start at running back in Week 11. Analysis: Slaton once again gets the start for Houston who have had problems consistently rushing the ball this season. Ryan Moats should still be a factor in the offense but Slaton will likely get the bulk of the carries at the present time. Fantasy owners should view Slaton as a low-end No. 2 running back. | 13 hours | |
| 98. | Looking like Orton will not play Week 11 | (TheHuddle) The Denver Post, reports, as of Saturday, Nov. 21, Denver Broncos QB Kyle Orton's (ankle) ankle has not healed enough to be able to play in Week 11.

| 99. | McGahee expected to see playing time Week 11 | (TheHuddle) The Carroll County Times, reports Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said there is a good chance RB Willis McGahee will see some playing time in Week 11. 'We like Willis,' Harbaugh said. 'Willis is a very good player. I think there's a good chance you'll see a lot of Willis this weekend.' Analysis: McGahee started the season on fire but then has disappeared the last few weeks much to the dismay of his fantasy owners. Baltimore is clearly using Ray Rice as their feature back which has limited the opportunities for McGahee so it would be hard to imagine any major changes in strategy at this po...

| 100. | Gage out for Week 11 | (TheHuddle) TitansOnline.com reports Tennessee Titans WR Justin Gage (back) did not participate in practice Saturday, Nov. 21. He has been ruled out for the team's Week 11 game. Analysis: The injury to Gage could keep the receiver out for more than one game which gives the rookie Kenny Britt some additional playing time in the Titans offense. Britt could be a solid sleeper candidate during the fantasy playoffs as they will face St. Louis, Miami and San Diego starting in Week 14. | 14 hours |
