Mike Williams out on bail
Mike Williams was arrested on suspicion of a DUI on Friday morning, according to Pro Football Talk (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/11/19/tampas-mike-williams-arrested-for-dui/). The Bucs wide receiver registered a 0.065 and a 0.061 on the breathalyzer tests. He was booked, subjected to a urine test, and has been released after posting bail. A Buccaneers official informed Adam Schefter of ESPN that Mike Williams will travel with the team to San Francisco and will start in Week 11 but a different Buccaneers official has said that Mike Williams will not play in Week 11. Have to love multiple, different reports.
Naanee plans to play.
Legedu Naanee (hamstring) told the North County Times (http://www.nctimes.com/sports/football/professional/nfl/chargers/article_acafc99c-42e0-506b-ade1-adf55e5d54d1.html) that he plans to play on Monday night against the Broncos.
Rice predicts big day.
Ray Rice has just one 100-yard day and one game with a touchdown this season, but he senses better times ahead. "I definitely feel like the big game is coming where the numbers will be great," Rice tells the Baltimore Sun. "I'm right where I need to be right now. We're going great as a collective group. I'm just trying to keep plugging away."
Vince Young good to go.
Vince Young (ankle) put in a second straight full practice on Thursday and has no issues with his ankle, the Tennessean reports.
Aints RB news
Pierre Thomas (ankle) didn't officially practice on Thursday, but he was in pads and did some individual drills on the side. "I can't say it's feeling 100 percent right now, but it's in the high either 70s or high 80s," Thomas tells the New Orleans Times-Picayune. Head coach Sean Payton believes that Thomas has "turned a corner."
Chris Ivory (shoulder) plans to play in Week 11 even though he has been limited in practice. "It still bothers me a little; when I move it, it kind of bothers me," he informs the New Orleans Times-Picayune. "But I'll be all right. I'll get a shot or something before the game, help me deal with it, the little pain that I'm feeling. I'll go out there and just try to help."
Reggie Bush (leg) was limited in practice again on Thursday, according to the Times-Picayune but is expected to start.
Hope for Benson?
Last week the Bengals faced the league's fourth-worst run defense (Indianapolis) and had one of its worst games of the season. This Sunday they face the league's worst (Buffalo) and if there was ever a week for the running game to get out of neutral, this is the one, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
