Key game-time decisions
All players questionable unless noted.
Arian Foster, RB (hamstring) Houston Texans
Foster fully practiced Friday after being limited the previous two days. With Ben Tate ready to play -- despite cracked ribs -- there will be less pressure to push Foster onto the field. Still, it's all hands on deck with the Texans' season spiraling.
Roddy White, WR (hamstring, ankle) Atlanta Falcons
White returned to practice Friday. He missed the past two weeks and hasn't been himself all season. NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport said on NFL Network's "NFL GameDay First" that White does not expect to play Week 9, barring significant improvment. He is trying to get fully healthy.
Jimmy Graham, TE (foot) New Orleans Saints
Graham played last week after being questionable, but he was limited to mainly red-zone targets on just 20 plays. Plantar fasciitis can be a fickle, lingering injury. NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport said on NFL Network's "NFL GameDay First" that Graham expects to play, although he might remain on a pitch count.
Marques Colston, WR (knee) New Orleans Saints
Colston missed Wednesday and Friday's practice, the latter being a bad sign for his availability.
Zac Stacy, RB (foot); Robert Quinn, DE (illness) St. Louis Rams
Stacy practiced fully Thursday, indicating he'll be ready to play. Quinn's status is unknown after not practicing Thursday or Friday with an illness.
Darrius Heyward-Bey, WR (hamstring) Indianapolis Colts
DHB was limited Thursday and didn't practice Friday, which is not a good trend line. If he can't go, even more pressure will be on T.Y. Hilton, LaVon Brazill and Co. in their effort to replace Reggie Wayne.
Aqib Talib, CB (hip) New England Patriots
It sounds like he will be ready to go, but he will need to pass pregame tests.
Eddie Royal, WR (toe) San Diego Chargers
Royal didn't practice all week.
DeMarco Murray, RB (knee -- probable) Dallas Cowboys
Murray will play this week, barring a big-time pregame setback.
Dashon Goldson, S (Knee) Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Goldson did not make the trip with the Bucs to Seattle on Saturday, according to the team's official website. He will not play vs. the Seahawks on Sunday.
