Week 3 Early Injury Reportby Mark Wimer, Exclusive to Footballguys.com
Quarterback
Boller missed the game vs. Tennessee, as expected. He'll be out for several weeks due to his severe turf toe. The Baltimore Sun's Jamison Hensley reported on Monday that Boller may need surgery to repair his injured right toe. Boller stated that he didn't know anything yet when questioned. A second opinion has been scheduled with a foot specialist for later today. This week is Baltimore's bye week, so Boller will have some time to evaluate his options.
Garcia missed the game this week, as expected. He was listed as out on Friday's injury report.
Grossman was out on Sunday due to his ankle/leg injury, as expected.
Leftwich injured his knee/ankle/leg after twisting his leg awkwardly during a play on Sunday. He was visibly limping after the hit, but stayed in the game. The severity of his injury(ies) is not clear as of Monday morning although Leftwich did say it was not his knee.
McNabb played very well on Sunday despite his chest injury. He looks just fine.
Vick was sidelined by a hamstring injury during the game vs. Seattle. The team originally said it was just cramps. But an MRI and additional tests are scheduled for Monday to evaluate the severity of the hamstring injury. His status for this week's game is unclear as of Monday afternoon - the injury will be evaluated further as the week goes along but coach Mora sounds pretty optimistic: "My gut feeling is he will be OK," coach Jim Mora said Monday. "Knowing Mike, he doesn't like to not practice. He doesn't like to not be part of the plan."
Running Back
Anderson played through his rib injury for the entire game. He did give way to Ron Dayne on the final series. His status for this week will be evaluated further as the week goes along.
Arrington missed the game on Sunday due to flu symptoms (probable on Friday's injury report).
Bell suffered an ankle injury on a kick return on Sunday. His status for this week isn't yet known.
Bettis missed the game on Sunday due to his injured calf (doubtful on Friday's injury report). Willie Parker has been named the starter by Coach Cowher after another fine effort on Sunday.
Chris Brown suffered a concussion during the game on Sunday, and ended up the day sidelined after attempting to get back in the game. Coach Jeff Fisher sounded optimistic: "Chris is not 100 percent today, but he’s fine. I don’t anticipate that being a problem." We'll know more later this week.
Bryson injured an ankle during the game on Sunday. It was xrayed and will be evaluated further as the week goes along.
Fargas missed the game on Sunday due to his injured knee (probable on Friday's injury report).
Priest Holmes suffered a shoulder stinger in Sunday's game but according to coach Dick Vermeil, he was fine. Holmes returned to the game with no ill effects. Stay tuned to see if there are any after effects this week.
Curtis Martin strained his right knee during the game on Sunday, and his status is up in the air for this week's game vs. Jacksonville. He'll be evaluated further as the week goes along - Martin owners will want to pay attention to the injury reports Thursday and Friday to monitor his practice participation and status.
Rhodes injured his left shoulder during the game on Sunday. His status for next week is not clear as of Monday.
Although Ricard did not appear on the injury report, the Baltimore Sun indicated last week that his lack of playing time is due to the calf injury that limited Ricard during pre-season. He missed the game vs. Tennessee this week as well. Baltimore is on bye this week, giving Ricard more time to get healthy.
Schlesinger missed the game this week, as expected. He was listed as out on Friday's injury report due to his broken leg.
Staley missed the game on Sunday due to his continuing rehabilitation of a knee injury/surgery. Willie Parker has been named the starter by Coach Cowher after another fine effort on Sunday.

Williams suffered a sprained left arch during the game on Sunday, but returned to action despite the foot injury. He was reported to be in a protective boot on Monday, and may be limited during practice this week. However, he's expected to play as usual next weekend. Williams owners will want to monitor his progress later in the week to be sure his injury is responding as expected. Coach Gruden expects him to be ready for this week: ``We think he's going to be OK for the [Green Bay] game,'' coach Jon Gruden said. ``We'll update you later in the week as we get more information. We are very optimistic, though.''
Wimbush was inactive on Sunday due to his hamstring injury.

Curry aggravated his right Achilles tendon/calf during the game vs. Kansas City, and he's scheduled for an MRI to assess the injury. He missed the final four games last year due to an Achilles injury, so the placement of the new injury is worrisome (same leg as the previous injury).
