Week 10 Injury/Depth Chart Report

Arizona Cardinals - Anquan Boldin should be close to full health, so he's as safe to use this week as he's been all season.  Hightower and Wells continue to split carries in a backfield that's unusable in fantasy leagues for now.

Atlanta Falcons - Roddy White continues to be limited some in practice during the week, but he's certain to play in week 10.

Baltimore Ravens - None.

Buffalo Bills - Trent Edwards will return as the starting quarterback this week, thrilling fantasy owners all around the nation.  Terrell Owens has been hobbled by a hip injury all week, and while he's been extremely limited, he has a history of never missing games except for serious injuries.  Regardless, he's a poor play when healthy, much less when he's hobbled.  I wouldn't bother with him.

Carolina Panthers - DeAngelo Williams has been battling a knee injury, missing 2 practices this week.  He's probably a full-blown game time decision, and both Williams' and Stewart's owners should check the game day inactive list.  Stewart is a borderline RB2 play most weeks, but he would vault into a must-start should Williams sit out.

Cincinnati Bengals - None.

Chicago Bears - None.

Cleveland Browns - Fantasy wasteland.

Dallas Cowboys - Marion Barber is still playing like he's hobbled by his leg injury, but you should continue starting him as a RB2 thanks to his scoring potential.

Denver Broncos - Knowshon Moreno and Correll Buckhalter are back to splitting time, making both very risky RB2 plays.  Moreno is the better play as he gets the goal line looks.  Royal put up a solid game last week, but he never seems to string them together.  Take a wait-and-see approach with him before using him again.

Detroit Lions - Stafford and Calvin Johnson appeared limited by their injuries last week, but both will play again this week.  Stafford is obviously best left on benches, but Calvin Johnson should be in all lineups.

Green Bay Packers - No injuries to mention here, but it's worth noting that the offense had a closed door meeting this week to discuss their problems.  Rodgers has been a top tiered fantasy QB despite the mess, but they have obviously been hampered by poor protection so far.  Hopefully that will get fixed in the 2nd half of the season.

Houston Texans - Bye week.

Indianapolis Colts - Donald Brown practiced all week, and while he's not startable, Addai owners will need to reserve him again as they will move back to a committee.  Addai is the better bet to score, but hopefully you have a more reliable yardage option.  Anthony Gonzalez is still out. 

Jacksonville Jaguars - MJD missed a little practice time this week, but he's going to start in week 10.

Kansas City Chiefs - This backfield is a mess again.  Despite talking all week about how this was Jamaal Charles' chance, he still split carries with Kolby Smith.  Given the Chiefs will likely stay in pass-first mode the rest of the year, Jamaal Charles will see the field more, but Kolby Smith will likely take inside and goal line carries.  Nobody on this team other than Dwayne Bowe is worth using.  I know Chris Chambers opened some eyes last week, but I highly doubt he'll come close to doing that again.  Make him prove himself before using him.

Miami Dolphins - None.

Minnesota Vikings - None.

New England Patriots - Sammy Morris is expected to miss another week, and Laurence Maroney has mostly looked good recently.  He's a RB2 again this week.

New Orleans Saints - Another ever-changing backfield.  Pierre Thomas looks to have risen back to the lead back, and he's a safe start as an RB2.  Despite all the madness in this backfield so far this year, Thomas is still the most talented runner on this team, and I think Sean Payton knows it.  Bell and Bush won't go away, but Thomas will lead the team in touches, and he looks to have reclaimed the goal line role, although you can't rule out the other two getting a play called for them either.

New York Giants - Bye week.

New York Jets - The bye week figures to have served Jerricho Cotchery well, so the Jets should be a full strength on offense for the stretch run.

Oakland Raiders - Fantasy wasteland, although Zach Miller continues to be a viable low tier TE1 despite the mess.

Philadelphia Eagles - Brian Westbrook, after being a surprise inactive last week, practiced both Thursday and Friday and will resume starting this week.  He's a RB2 despite the headache he has provided his owners this year as he will see the most touches in the backfield when he's healthy.

Pittsburgh Steelers - None.

San Diego Chargers - LT has a hip injury that has been bothering him, but he's going to play this week.  Starting him at this stage in his career is simply hoping for a TD, so he's only a RB2 play.

San Francisco 49ers - None.

Seattle Seahawks - Is Julius Jones back as the workhorse?  Last week showed he is.  None of these guys are worth using, however, although I guess Jones can be used as a desperate RB2 play.

St. Louis Rams - None.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Josh Freeman showed some potential last week in an inspired effort, so Kellen Winslow can be used as a TE1 moving forward.

Tennessee Titans - Justin Gage will miss several weeks with some fractures in his lower back after his highlight reel catch, which means Kenny Britt will start in his plate.  As I said last week, the Titans' WRs are very risky WR3 plays as Vince Young simply doesn't throw down the field very often.

Washington Redskins - Clinton Portis is out, so Ladell Betts will start in his place.  I was going to suggest Betts as a solid RB2 play, but he's not 100% either, battling a foot sprain.  It's bad enough that coach Jim Zorn suggested a committee is possible, and considering the strong Broncos' run defense, it's best to avoid the situation.
