ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Lions quarterback Daunte Culpepper had an MRI on his shoulder, leading to doubt that he will play on the road against the Indianapolis Colts.

2008 Statistics:
G/GS: 5/5
TD/INT: 4/6
Yards: 786

Detroit coach Rod Marinelli said Monday the team would wait for results of the exam before exploring other options for a starting quarterback.

After Culpepper was hurt, Drew Henson was sacked on the final play Sunday.

Dan Orlovsky hopes to be healthy enough to play this week after being out for a month with a wrist injury.

Drew Stanton has been sidelined for two weeks with a concussion, but is expected to be ready to play if necessary.

The Lions (0-13) will close at Indianapolis, against New Orleans and at Green Bay hoping to avoid being the NFL's first 0-16 team.
