Injury Update for Week 16 Early Games

BRIAN WESTBROOK (ankle) and REGGIE BROWN (knee) are both active at New Orleans. Westbrook is obviously a must-start in all fantasy leagues while Brown might be a decent play this week depending on your options.

MARQUES COLSTON (back) will play against Philadelphia. He missed Friday's practice, but he is available.

REGGIE BUSH (knee) will not play against Philadelphia. AARON STECKER will start again and has looked good in each of the last two games.

RUDI JOHNSON (hamstring) is inactive for the game versus Cleveland. KENNY WATSON will start and DEDE DORSEY should receive a couple of carries as well.

RON DAYNE (ankle) is active at Indianapolis, but will not start. Dayne should receive a bunch of carries, but DARIUS WALKER will be given the official start.

MATT SCHAUB (shoulder) will be the emergency quarterback at Indianapolis. SAGE ROSENFELS will once again start for Houston.

MARVIN HARRISON (knee) is inactive again for the game against Houston. ANTHONY GONZALEZ will start in Harrison's absence and has played very well in three of the last four games.

BRANDON JACOBS (hamstring) will play at Buffalo. The weather and field conditions are not expected to be good so Jacobs might see more work than usual.

PLAXICO BURRESS (hamstring, ankle) is active at Buffalo. It's hard to recommend Burress, however, because he has been very inconsistent in the second half of the season and the weather in Buffalo is rainy and windy.
