Worth noting, I guess, given that it's Big Ben... From "The REAL Feed": Roethlisberger to play with shoulder injury NFL News: RealFootball365.com (10.09.2008 08:49) With quarterbacks dropping like flies in the AFC, the Steelers were pretty excited to get out of... Not much of a helpful fantasy slant, though, in the "Fantasy Football Impact" section... from a fantasy-specific source, mind you. ...

Willie Parker probably out and Big Ben still has a chance to start. From the Pittsburgh Post Gazette: Quote:Parker doesn't practice for second straight day Thursday, November 06, 2008 By Gerry Dulac, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette One game after returning from a knee injury, Pro Bowl running back Willie Parker did not practice for the second day in a row because of a shoulder injury and might not play against the Indianapolis Colts. Parker, who missed four games with a sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee, had 70 yards on 21 carries against the Washington Redskins. It is not known when or how he was injured in the game. Also, Ben Roethlisberger missed practice for the second day in a row, but he will attempt to practice tomorrow in anticipation of playing against the Colts.

How about Willie Parker? Is he definitely out? I can't find any definitive word on that. Even pieces that state, like in their titles, that he is out, actually say in the article that he "may sit", and ultimately he is officially listed as doubtful, not out. I know he didn't practice this week. Any help here, anyone?

| Steg- EVERYTHING I have read indicates he is out this weekend. They all read like this: Quote:| Willie Parker, RB, Steelers: Parker is officially listed as doubtful on the NFL injury report, but the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has reported that Parker will not play. The good news here is that it is not Parker's knee that is keeping him out of this week's contest. Parker played Monday night after missing four games with a medial collateral ligament sprain. He ran well Monday but apparently injured his right shoulder during the third quarter. The injury wasn't severe enough to force him out of the game, and it is not likely to cause him to miss extended time. So hang in there, Parker fantasy owners -- it looks like he will be back in your lineup next week. In the meantime, hopefully you have kept Mewelde Moore available on your roster. |
