Finally, some news on Crowell breaking!

Hot off "the Gridiron Newsstand", here is a quote from Mlive.com regarding Crowell and his status for this Sunday:
"In an interview with WDFN, Tom Kowalski says that Germane Crowell will start practicing with the team Wednesday. If he appears to be 100% by Sunday, he could make his first appearance since injuring his knee against Tennessee last season."
Here is a link to the whole audio interview:

All that he says about Crowell is sufficiently summarized above, though.
Anyway, I hope this helps you guys out. I have been holding on to him since last year and am really looking forward to seeing him hit the field, especially given how beat up the Lions wideout corps currently is!

For those three, you may want to wait a week. I do not think he is going to do much this week. Clayton from ESPN has said that he will probably only be in for 10 or 15 snaps if he even plays. It remains a question as to whether or not he will play. The one of the three I would lean toward, though, is Coles, but I would be curious to see what/how well he and the Jets do this week at home against Minnesota first.

Slight setback, guys, on the Crowell front. Here is the latest out of DetroitLions.com:
"Mornhinweg said that Crowell, who has not played in one day short of an entire year due to a knee injury, had a minor setback in his knee and did not practice Friday. Mornhinweg, however, was not convinced that the swelling in Crowell's right knee would prevent his return to the field.
'His knee got a little swelling today with just a touch of fluid in there,' Mornhinweg said. 'He is day-to-day. After this past week, I certainly expect it would be a possibility for Germane to play. He is not necessarily out for this week.'
The only thing I would say here, though, is that nothing regarding Crowell's injuries can truthfully be termed "minor" or "slight." These circumstances do NOT change my stance on Crowell and my advice to pick him up, though. On the other hand, this is NOT news to just be shirked off; this is NOT good news. If you do not understand what I mean, just think "Terrell Davis"... and keep your fingers crossed... real tight!

I would suggest picking him up this week.
