Aaron Rodgers - QB - Green Bay Packers

Aaron Rodgers completed 26-of-40 passes for 263 yards, three touchdowns, and two interceptions in Monday night's win over the Ravens.

Rodgers wasn't dominant, but he was obviously the offensive star of this one, adding 30 rushing yards. On the Packers' second drive he overthrew Greg Jennings by a mile for one of his picks and Donald Driver had one bounce off his feet for the second. Rodgers does throw one of the tightest spirals in the league and is exceptionally accurate on the run, though, which separates him from a lot of QBs. He faces the Bears' No. 9 pass defense next week.

DeSean Jackson - WR - Philadelphia Eagles

DeSean Jackson told ESPN 950 in Philadelphia that he will play in Week 14 against the Giants.

D-Jax, who suffered a concussion in Week 12, says he will undergo more tests on Tuesday and is unlikely to practice Wednesday. So if the decision was up to him, he would play, but it isn't. Jackson will have to be cleared medically and avoid headaches this week. Stay tuned for updates throughout the practice week.

Ed Reed - DB - Baltimore Ravens

Ravens FS Ed Reed is inactive for Monday night's game at Lambeau Field.

Per Suzy Kolber of ESPN, Reed will miss the game with a hip injury. He was questionable, but everyone was expecting him to play, so it's quite a surprise. The Ravens will try to keep pace in the AFC playoff race with the Jaguars, while Tom Zbikowski starts in Reed's place.

Matt Schaub - QB - Houston Texans

Texans coach Gary Kubiak announced Monday that Matt Schaub (shoulder) has a "good chance" to face Seattle in Week 14.

Kubiak added that he'll know more later this week, after watching Schaub practice. Schaub, on pace for 30 touchdown passes and easily a career-high 4,599 yards, dislocated his left (non-throwing) shoulder in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars but finished the game in a harness. His passing was not affected by the injury, and he is a very strong bet to continue playing.

O.J. Atogwe - DB - St. Louis Rams

Rams FS O.J. Atogwe may miss the rest of 2009 after suffering a serious shoulder injury in Sunday's loss to Chicago.

Atogwe, the Rams' franchise player, has two options. He could finish out the year in a shoulder harness -- essentially playing with one arm -- or shut it down and get surgery out of the way early. The Rams would probably prefer Atogwe sit out the final four games considering their 1-11 record, rather than risk an aggravation. He'll seek more opinions before making a decision.

Kurt Warner - QB - Arizona Cardinals

Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt assured reporters Monday that Kurt Warner's hip injury "probably won't be an issue" going forward.

The injury, which is not to the hip Warner had surgically repaired in the offseason, is being called a "hip pointer." He was seen limping after Sunday night's win, but Whisenhunt said the 38-year-old QB was "moving around well" on Monday. The Cards don't practice until Thursday because they play on Monday Night Football, giving Warner a full extra day to get over any kinks.

Brian Westbrook - RB - Philadelphia Eagles

Eagles coach Andy Reid said at his Monday press conference that there's a "chance" Brian Westbrook (concussion) could practice in Week 14.

Beat writer Brian Seltzer confirms that Westbrook is still very unlikely to play, but practicing would increase the 30-year-old tailback's odds of returning sooner rather than later. Still, Westbrook will return only as a committee back, sharing work with starter LeSean McCoy and red-hot Leonard Weaver.
