Week 8 Friday Practice: Injuries Report

For reference, Week 8 Thursday Practice: Injuries Report

The major change today is that Mike Tolbert is now not likely to play in Week 8. Some players that were either expected or likely to be out on Sunday, have been confirmed and ruled out today.  Players that were not mentioned yesterday will appear below the updates for yesterday (and in bold).Here are the major injury related news from Friday's practice around the NFL:

Andre Johnson- was held out of practice and both Johnson himself and coach Gary Kubiak acknowledged that he is not ready to play yet. Officially he is still a game time decision, but will likely be out.

Adrian Peterson- participated fully in practice on Friday and is probable for Week 8.

Joseph Addai- he returned to full practice today and is listed as questionable. Addai's situation is similar to last week when he only practiced on Friday and was able to play in Week 7. If he does play, the of course Delone Carter will not get as many touches.

Mark Ingram- he has finally been ruled out. Look for Pierre Thomas and Darren Sproles to split the carries and Chris Ivory to possibly vulture some goal line carries.

Daniel Thomas- he was limited in practice again on Friday and is listed as questionable, but should play against the Giants.

Beanie Wells- he increased his participation in Friday's practice and is officially a dreaded game time decision (signs points toward him playing Week 8), but exercise caution when counting on the fragile Wells.

Peyton Hillis- was held out of practice again and is listed as questionable, but is not expected to play. Look for Montario Hardesty to get the start against a good San Francisco defense.

Matthew Stafford- took part in full practice today and is listed as questionable. Barring a set back, he should be ready to go against the Broncos this Sunday.

Mike Tolbert- he missed practice again on Friday his status for week 8 is now not likely to play. If he is indeed out for Monday Night Football then Ryan Matthews will have a big workload. 


Officially Out: Jahvid Best, Sam Bradford, Mark Ingram.
