Willie Parker didn’t step in a hole this week, but something in that left knee is just not right. He told Jim Wexell of SteelCityInsider.com, “I’m just frustrated.” Parker did the early morning drills (otherwise known as jogging and stretching) Thursday but did not practice. He had put in a full practice Wednesday. Uh oh.
“It’s doubtful Parker will recover in time for Sunday’s game against the New York Giants,” writes Wexell.
Mike Bires of the Beaver County Times says “it appears more and more” that Mewelde Moore will start.
If Parker just had a small tear in that MCL then conservative treatment and rest would have sufficed after 3 full weeks. Last week was his 3rd week, but then he stepped in that hole. Parker might have re-frayed that ligament, which could push him back another 3 weeks.
Mewelde Moore stays on fantasy rosters in leagues of all sizes until Parker shows he’s totally past this… which might not be for a while. Update: Parker is listed as doubtful. He’s out.
