NEWS & NOTES

At this point in the week, due to Daunte Culpepper's shoulder injury, it's a tossup between him and Joey Harrington for the start on Sunday.

Chris Henry was suspended two games by the NFL for violating the league's conduct and substance abuse policy. You knew it was bound to happen, at least there was one game against Pittsburgh where we saw the talent.

Brian Westbrook did not practice for the third consecutive day on Friday. It looks like he will not play on Sunday, however he will probably be listed as a game-time decision.

Donte' Stallworth did not practice again on Friday, and it appears he will be doubtful for the game on Sunday. Hank Baskett will probably start in his place. The Eagles will be without many key weapons going into their matchup with T.O. and those other guys.

After a rough Monday night, Packers WR Donald Driver is doubtful for Sunday's game. Look for Koren Robinson to have an increased role.

However, Driver's teammate Ahman Green practiced on Friday, and it appears that he will be back in the lineup.

Brandon Stokely practiced again on Friday, and it looks like he'll be back in the lineup this week. He's a decent WR 3 play against the Titans.

Todd Heap is questionable for his game this week. Since the game is on Monday night, it would be hard to wait on him, if you have other good options at TE. It'd be wise to look elsewhere.

Kellen Winslow Jr. missed a portion of Browns practice on Friday, and it's no guarantee he'll play on Sunday. He's questionable right now, and it's important to watch his status all weekend.

David Givens will not start at WR this weekend for the Titans and the starters will be Drew Bennett and impressive second year player Brandon Jones.

Charles Rogers was invited to a Patriots workout this week, and he could be signed by the team in the upcoming days.
