WR Eric Moulds (Buf) continues to play with his nagging groin injury. He believes he's about 80% and will likely not be fully healthy until the off-season.

*** FRIDAY UPDATE *** WR Eric Moulds (Buf) hasn’t practiced this week and has been added to the injury report as questionable with his groin injury.  He looks like a game-time decision.  If Moulds does play this weekend, his effectiveness will be limited at best.

WR Shawn Jefferson (Det) has been lost for the season after being placed on the injured reserve list with his injured knee.

WR Charles Rogers (Det) is still out with his broken collarbone.

*** FRIDAY UPDATE *** WR Bill Schroeder (Det) has been benched in favor of Scotty Anderson.  Schroeder is actually close to being cut but is being held on to due to the salary cap hit his release would cause.

WR Marvin Harrison (Ind) suffered a grade one strain to his hamstring last Sunday.  He did not practice on Wednesday and will likely sit out this weekend.

*** THURSDAY UPDATE *** WR Marvin Harrison (Ind) will test his hamstring on Saturday. He has not been ruled out but it doesn't sound too optimistic right now. Although that could change after working out Saturday. Diagnostic tests showed just a grade 1 strain which is the mildest possible. But it seems more serious than that. Says Harrison: "That's the problem.  My leg has never hurt, but what the X-rays show and how I feel are two different things. I've just got to take my time and get healthy."
