2011 IDP Infirmary: Week 8

Written By: Eric Olinger

Here is the Week 9 Injury Watch for key IDP players. Bad news if you’re a Steelers fan heading into Ravens week.


Sean Lee- MLB- Cowboys- Questionable
Even though he’s listed as questionable, very few details have been given on the extent of Lee’s dislocated wrist. Brian Urlacher had a dislocated wrist 2 years ago and missed the entire season. We won’t know more until the weekend.
Mike Jenkins- CB- Cowboys- OUT
Already ruled out for this week. Jenkins is expected to miss 3-4 weeks with a pulled hammy.
Jerod Mayo- MLB- Patriots- Probable
Mayo played last week but did not start. He didn’t appear to be himself either (knee). Mayo will continue to be part of the gameplan, but until he proves to be 100%, he shouldn’t be trusted.
Justin Tuck- DE- Giants- Probable
Tuck played last week also recording 2 tackles and ½ a sack. He admittedly confessed he almost didn’t make it through the game though (neck) but the fans gave him enough to push through.
LaMarr Woodley- OLB- Steelers- Doubtful
Depending on who you ask, Woodley could start this week or be out through the team’s week 11 bye week. Everyone with medical expertise says there is no way he plays with that pulled hamstring. Woodley says “See ya Sunday!”. We  won’t know for sure until Sunday at game time.
James Farrior- MILB- Steelers- OUT
Farrior is dealing with a calf strain and is not expected to play this week.
James Harrison- OLB- Steelers- OUT
It’s getting a pretty bad for the Steelers’ LB Corp. Harrison (orbital bone) was cleared for practice, but tweeted he will not play this week.
Rocky McIntosh- MLB- Redskins- Probable
McIntosh (ankle) is fully expected to play this week.
