Also starting this Sunday…

Byron Leftwich. The Jacksonville QB will start for the Jaguars in Minnesota on Sunday after being out for two games with a knee injury. Leftwich is known to be a quick healer who is horribly impatient when it comes to doctor’s orders. Jags head coach Jack Del Rio probably deserves coach of the year honors just for convincing Leftwich to sit for two weeks.

Matt Hasselbeck. Earlier this week, the Seattle QB received accupuncture treatments for a deep thigh bruise and was given the green light to play this weekend. Hasselbeck doesn’t think he’s 100% yet, but he feels ready to play. He may still receive treatments heading into the game itself, though I suspect he won’t wear the needles out on the field

Kelly Holcomb. The Cleveland fan favorite will start at QB for the Browns on Sunday. Jeff Garcia sprained his rotator cuff in last Sunday’s loss to the New York Jets and may be out a few weeks. This shouldn’t prevent the Browns from missing the playoffs again this year.

Randy Moss. Orginally, the Vikings’ standout wideout was going to be held to about 25 plays after missing several weeks with a damaged hamstring. Head coach Mike Tice, however, has said that Moss is healthy enough to play the full game if necessary. It’s the Jaguars, too, so it will probably be necessary.
