Latest News on Denver QB Brian Griese:
http://www.usatoday.com/sports/nfl/broncos/wed.htm Denver Broncos quarterback Brian Griese, the AFC's top-rated passer, might be lost for the regular season with a severely separated throwing shoulder. ''He'll be out a minimum of three weeks,'' Denver coach Mike Shanahan said Tuesday. The news stunned the Broncos, who watched Monday night as Griese shook off the injury and led his team back into the AFC West race by knocking off first-place Oakland 27-24. Griese, already playing with cartilage damage in his right shoulder, suffered a third-degree separation while being chased out of bounds in the first quarter. Griese, whose first shoulder injury this season also was vs. the Raiders, returned after taking a pain-killing injection. ''When they told me that I might be out three, four, five weeks, I said, 'If that's the case, put me back in there so I can play one more time,' '' he said. In the "Here we go again" department, RB Terrell Davis was noticeably limping after Monday Night's game. From the same USA Today article : "Also in question are the status of Terrell Davis, who was limping noticeably after the game, and guard Mark Schlereth, who could be headed for yet another knee surgery in what likely is his final season. Davis, in fact, revealed that his left foot had been bothering him the past 2-3 weeks. " I had also heard reports he was bothered by a calf problem. Not sure whether it's the foot or the calf (or both) and it's not clear yet whether the injury is serious enough to be a factor this weekend. I'll keep you posted and just wanted to give you the headsup. Joe To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: cheatsheets-unsubscribe@egroups.com
