The versatile back was expected to miss two-to-four weeks after injuring his knee in a 30-7 loss to the Carolina Panthers on October 19. He was sidelined in New Orleans' 37-32 victory in London over the San Diego Chargers and, following a bye week, missed the Saints' 34-20 loss to the Atlanta Falcons this past Sunday.

| (MySportsbook) - The Detroit Lions' tour of futility makes a stop in Charlotte this Sunday, as the NFL's lone remaining winless team of this season takes on the NFC South front-running Carolina Panthers in a matchup between clubs headed in decidedly opposite directions. While losing has been a customary occurrence for the Lions in recent years -- the franchise hasn't posted a winning mark since 2000 -- this season's edition appears quite capable of etching a dubious place in both team and league annals for it |

| Alameda, CA (MySportsbook) - Oakland Raiders quarterbacks JaMarcus Russell and Andrew Walter both failed to fully participate in practice Thursday due to injury. Russell sat out last Sunday's loss to the Carolina Panthers with a knee injury. The 2007 first overall pick has six touchdowns and four interceptions in eight starts for the 2-7 Raiders. He was limited in practice Thursday, and it is unknown whether he will be ready to play on Sunday against the Dolphins. Walter completed 14-of-32 passes for 143 yard |

| Detroit, MI (MySportsbook) - Detroit Lions quarterback Daunte Culpepper has reportedly been named the starter for Sunday's matchup with the Carolina Panthers. The Detroit Free Press cited Lions head coach Rod Marinelli as stating that Culpepper, who officially signed with Detroit on November 4, will start over Drew Stanton, although Stanton could also see time under center. Culpepper started last Sunday's 38-14 loss to the Jaguars but was pulled late in the third quarter after going just 5-for-10 with 104 yar |

| New York, NY (MySportsbook) - Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson, Carolina Panthers defensive end Julius Peppers and New York Giants special teamer Chase Blackburn were selected as the NFC's top players for Week 10 of the NFL season. Peterson captured offensive honors with a standout performance against the Green Bay Packers. He ran for 192 yards and scored the winning touchdown on a 29-yard jaunt with 2:22 remaining in Minnesota's 28-27 victory. The win pushed the Vikings into a tie with Chicago |

| NFC South: Panthers prevail despite QB being "less than Jake" |

| (MySportsbook) -- Jake Delhomme probably isn't concerned about taking home the Carolina Panthers' team MVP award at season's end. That's a good thing, since the veteran quarterback certainly didn't help his candidacy with a forgettable performance this past Sunday. Delhomme produced the worst passer rating of his 10-year career, a dismal 12.3 figure that likely conjured up unwanted flashbacks of David Carr in the minds of Panthers' fans, during Carolina's battle with the Oakland Raiders over the weekend.

The Silver and Black of the post-Kiffin era are 1-4, and the offense has regressed back to the days of Art Shell's second stint, when the team rarely troubled the scoreboard. In Sunday's 17-6 home loss to the Carolina Panthers, the Raiders failed to score a touchdown for the second consecutive game, and have now scored a total of just 35 points in their five games under interim head coach Tom Cable.

Julius Peppers dominated on defense, recording three sacks and two forced fumbles for the Panthers (7-2), who have won seven of their first nine games for the third time in team history and the first time since 2005.
