We handle the biggest injury news all day on Around the League. The rest goes right here, on the most popular injury report roundup with you, the undecided voter.
- The New England Patriots list tight end Aaron Hernandez (ankle) as questionable against the Denver Broncos. NFL.com and NFL Network's Albert Breer does not expect Hernandez to suit up. Fantasy leaguers should look elsewhere.
- New Orleans Saints wide receiver Lance Moore is out against the San Diego Chargers. That's a big loss for a team that has been uneven in the passing game. Safety Roman Harper and wide receiver Joseph Morgan are questionable. Moore won't get to catch a piece of history this time.
- Indianapolis Colts defensive end Dwight Freeney (ankle) officially is a game-time decision. It sounds like he'll be limited if he plays against the Green Bay Packers. Cornerback Vontae Davis is out.
- Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hand) is probable against the Washington Redskins. He says he's all the way back after fighting through an injury last week.
- The New York Giants are the most banged-up team in the NFL. Seven players are out or doubtful against the Cleveland Browns: wide receivers Hakeem Nicks (foot/knee) and Ramses Barden (concussion), defensive tackle Rocky Bernard (quadricep), cornerback Jayron Hosley (hamstring), safety Kenny Phillips (knee), offensive tackle David Diehl (knee) and linebacker Keith Rivers (hamstring). Those are all starters or key reserves. Four more starters are questionable. Maybe Sessler wasn't so crazy to pick the Browns.
