    Chris Cooley - TE, Washington Redskins 11/11/2006

    TE Chris Cooley of the Washington Redskins has been a more featured player the last few weeks in the Washington offense. He only has 24 catches for 284 yards on the season but he has caught a touchdown pass in his last 3 games. "If we don't get him involved on the game, we really second-guess ourselves," coach Joe Gibbs said. "Because he's a big part of what we do."

    Rob Morris - LB, Indianapolis Colts 11/11/2006

    LB Rob Morris, who was drafted in the first round by the Indianapolis Colts during the 2000 draft will return to the field Sunday. Morris, was supplanted by Gary Brackett two seasons ago due to Brackett's exceptional speed and pass rushing abilities. "It's been fun again to be out there practicing with the No. 1 group," said Morris, whose forte has always been stopping the run. "I'd be lying to say I haven't missed it. But I'm a team guy and I'll do whatever I have to do to be a part of this. But, yeah, it's going to be exciting.

    Plaxico Burress - WR, New York Giants 11/11/2006

    New York Giants WR Plaxico Burress has stated that he will play Sunday when the Giants battle the Chicago Bears Sunday night. Burress, who has been out the last two weeks with a back problem, returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out with back spasms earlier in the week. "If I don't feel good about a specific thing, I'm not going to go out there and labor through practice," he said. "When I feel great -- and I feel great right now -- I'm going to go out and give it all I've got."
