Running back Rashad Jennings missed practice with an injured knee suffered early against the Vikings, but like Bradfield, an MRI showed no significant damage.

On the defensive side of the ball, starting cornerback Derek Cox was limited in practice due to an injured hamstring, while starting outside linebacker Daryl Smith missed practice with an injured groin.
