day this week.

*** THURSDAY UPDATE *** QB Jake Delhomme (Car) did not practice on
Thursday, but the team still hopes he'll be able to play this weekend.

*** THURSDAY UPDATE *** QB Vinny Testaverde (Dal) did not practice on
Thursday due to illness, but he is expected to play this weekend.

QB David Garrard (Jac) will again start in place of the injured Byron
Leftwich and should benefit from another week of practice with the
first team. "Going through the trenches, going through the battle, the
overtime situation, I'm definitely more comfortable," he said. "But
not too comfortable that I'm getting ahead of myself or getting a big
head or anything like that. There's no room for that in this game."

QB Byron Leftwich (Jac) did not practice on Wednesday and will most
likely sit this weekend with his injured knee. "It's been recommended
that he not try to push it," coach Jack Del Rio said. "He's wanting to
play, saying 'Don't rule me out yet.' But the smartest thing to do is
to rest him this week. We're not going to put him in a position to
take a step back."

*** THURSDAY UPDATE *** QB Byron Leftwich (Jac) did not practice on
Thursday and remains very unlikely to play this weekend.

QB Chad Pennington (NYJ) will not play this weekend due to his injured
shoulder.  "He's getting better", said HC Herman Edwards.  "He's going
to do some things, but he's not ready to throw.  Maybe he'll have a
shot (to throw) next week.  We'll know more then, but I think maybe
next week he can do some more things."

QB Matt Hasselbeck (Sea) will take it easy in practice this week with
his injured knee, but he is expected to play this weekend.

QB Brian Griese (TB) did not practice on Wednesday, but he is expected
to play this weekend despite his injured shoulder.  "He was very, very
limited," said coach Jon Gruden. "He's still sore from the game.
Hopefully he gets his mobility back and can get out there and throw
tomorrow.

"Sometimes quarterbacks, when they get hit in a game, take a couple of
days to return to the practice field, and he's no different. He took
way too many hits and his body's sore. But he is getting better and
hopefully he'll be out there tomorrow. ..."

*** THURSDAY UPDATE *** QB Brian Griese (TB) practiced on Thursday and
is expected to play this weekend.

QB Steve McNair (Ten) is expected to take the majority of practice
snaps and is pointing toward playing this weekend.  However, he will
likely be a game-time decision.

"Throwing, running around is not the issue, but he appears to be
better at this point. We will see how he moves around. We believe he
is improving and we are encouraged at where he is right now, but we
still have to wait, probably in all likelihood until game time," coach
Jeff Fisher said.

*** THURSDAY UPDATE *** QB Steve McNair (Ten) practiced fully on
Thursday.  He remains a game-time decision, but barring a setback it
looks like he'll be able to play.

QB Patrick Ramsey (Was) has been moved into the starting lineup in
place of the struggling Mark Brunell. The team is expected to be
patient with him and doesn't want him looking over his shoulder.

"Hopefully I can go in there and play well."

game against Jacksonville. He is listed as doubtful for this week's
