Harvin's light frame and positional demands allow him to potentially return in the four-month window, presuming no surprises in surgery and a smooth recovery. Even if he does return then, it's possible he will be limited in playing time early on, with a gradual increase in snaps as he tolerates the work. For Seahawks fans, if the team is able to perform well enough to go deep into the playoffs, Harvin could potentially contribute when they need him most.

For fantasy owners, this is not the year to count on him. But don't count him out in Skip to main content Skip to navigation.

While McNabb maintains that the ankle might not yet be percent, this is not going to be the type of thing to get in the way of football. The concern revolves primarily around the lack of information related to his supposed ailing knee.

Jones-Drew was held out of practices for more than a week for "rest" while he and the Jacksonville Jaguars quashed reports of an alleged surgical procedure. Jones-Drew has insisted all along that he's fine and ready to play, but fantasy owners have been understandably mystified. One positive sign for fantasy owners is Jones-Drew's absence from the Jaguars' midweek injury report.

It appears there is no doubt he will be in Sunday's starting lineup but whether this is something that will crop up again down the road remains to be seen. Moreno was a full participant in Wednesday's practice and his status for Sunday does not appear to be in doubt. The bigger question for him will be how his hamstring holds up to the test of game play. Oakland Raiders running back Michael Bush continues to impress following surgery to repair a Bennett's fracture in his thumb.

Bush has participated in limited practice this week with his thumb splinted, but head coach Tom Cable says Bush is doing more and more. Cable even went so far as to tell the Oakland Tribune that there is "a real chance" that Bush could play in Week 1. Fantasy owners should not get overly excited just yet. Even if Bush plays -- and it would be surprising if he did -- his work is likely to be very limited.

Nonetheless, his progress is encouraging and he will almost certainly beat out initial projections of a lengthier absence. Be sure to check back Saturday for the late updates on key players heading into Sunday's contests.
