BUSTED BRUISED & BROKEN

David Kaye, FFI

AFC Injury Report
New England Patriots running back Sammy Morris (chest) was placed on injured reserve last week and will miss the remainder of the season.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Roscoe Parrish (thigh contusion) left Sunday’s victory over the woeful Bengals early and is listed as questionable for this week’s matchup against the winless Dolphins.

Cincinnati Bengals All-Pro wide receiver Chad Johnson (sprained neck) was carted off the field during the fourth quarter of Sunday’s loss and the severity of his injury is unknown at this point. While the CT scan administrated to Johnson after the game came back negative, it is still too early to question whether the electrifying wideout will be able to suit up for Sunday’s game against the division rival Ravens.

The reoccurring knee injuries for Houston Texans running back Ahman Green surfaced again in Sunday’s road victory at Oakland as he was forced to leave the game early. Green has missed three games this season and has transpired into a monumental disappointment for the coaching staff. He’s currently listed as probable for November 18th against the streaking Saints.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Marvin Harrison (knee) has missed the previous two games and is questionable for Sunday night’s showdown against the Chargers.

Rookie Anthony Gonzalez (hand) sustained a broken bone and is also questionable for this weekend’s game.

Kansas City Chiefs Pro Bowl running back Larry Johnson (foot sprain) was relegated to crutches following Sunday’s home loss to the Packers and it appears highly unlikely that he’ll be able to play this weekend against Denver.

Wide receiver Dwayne Bowe (hamstring) is probable for Sunday’s game against the Broncos.

Denver Broncos quarterback Jay Cutler (leg contusion) was badly hit in the lower leg by 340 pound defensive tackle Shaun Rogers during the second quarter of Sunday’s blowout loss to Detroit and his status for this weekend’s contest is still unknown. Initially, Cutler believed he suffered a hairline fracture in his leg, but an MRI confirmed that he had staved off a serious injury.

Running back Travis Henry (knee) is questionable for Sunday’s game at Kansas City after sitting out the forth quarter of Sunday’s 44-7 loss.

NFC Injury Report
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson (concussion) was carted off the field during the second quarter of Sunday’s surprising 35-17 victory over the Chargers and is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game at Green Bay.

Carolina Panthers multi-versatile wide receiver Steve Smith (hip contusion) is currently probable for Sunday’s game against the Falcons.

Quarterback David Carr (concussion) is questionable for Sunday’s matchup with Atlanta after being hit by defensive tackle Tony Brown in the fourth quarter. Carr was sacked seven times in Sunday’s 20-7 loss to the Titans.

Atlanta Falcons running back Jerious Norwood (right ankle) is questionable for Sunday’s game at Carolina after injuring his ankle twice against the 49ers.

St. Louis Rams running back Steven Jackson (back) is expected to suit up against the Saints as his team searches for their first victory of the season.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Deion Branch (knee) has missed the past three games and has not been in the lineup since week five at Pittsburgh. He’s questionable for Monday night’s game against San Francisco.
