Week 14 Injury Report

This week: New York Jets, Sunday 13th December

Both Carnell "Cadillac" Williams (572 yards, three touchdowns) and rookie Sammie Stroughter (288 yards, 1 TD) "tweaked" their backs on Thursday evening and were added to the injury report as questionable for Sunday's game against the New York Jets. Stroughter's ailment is specified as a lower back injury, while Williams' is more general.

Running back Derrick Ward (304 yards and one touchdown) could see increased playing time, along with Earnest Graham and backup running back Kareem Huggins, who was promoted from Tampa Bay's practice squad earlier this week.

"We'll see," head coach Raheem Morris said. "We'll have Earnest Graham playing fullback and tailback like he always does, but we also got (fullback Chris) Pressley, who is a little more involved in the offense and knows more of the plays. We'll have to see."

As far as Stroughters' kick-return duties, Morris said:"Well, you've got Yamon Figurs who you have the luxury of doing that with, and also Kareem Huggins had some returns for us in the preseason so we've got some experienced guys back there," said Morris. "We've got some guys who have done it before in games in the NFL. Sammie should be fine, but we'll have to get out there and see."

Others on the injury report:
Receiver Michael Clayton (knee),
cornerback Derrick Roberson (groin),
defensive lineman Michael Bennett (toe) are doubtful;

Linebacker Geno Hayes (hamstring) is questionable

Leading reciever, tight end Kellen Winslow (knee) probable.
