Ellis, Newman update

Cornerback Terence Newman did more today in practice, and it sounds as if he may be able to play on Sunday night. Coach Wade Phillips said he expects Newman to be a game-time decision again.

Newman's knee may not be completely right, but his upper body strength is fine. During pre-practice stretching drills, he did a hand stand for about 10 seconds.

As for linebacker Greg Ellis, he will probably be ruled out for Sunday's game tomorrow.

Can Newman go in Chicago?

Wade Phillips sounded fairly optimistic that Terence Newman would be able to play against the Bears.

"He is doing better," Phillips said. "I think he's close to being ready to play. I think it'll still be a game time decision, but Terence Newman is getting closer."

Newman walked on his hands a little bit during the part of practice the media is allowed to watch. That might work as long as the Bears stick with Train Rex Grossman at quarterback.

In other injury news, Phillips basically ruled Greg Ellis out of this game. He said the team is being "safe" with Oliver Hoyte after he got banged up in the Miami game. Phillips hopes Hoyte will still be able to start.

getting sick of the Ellis watch...I might be wrong, but didn't this bursitis (sp) thing all start about the time he was told to pound sand on his contract extension thing?? It's getting old to me.

Just quit watching him and accept the fact that even when he does come back he won't be 100%. If we get any thing this year from Ellis it will be gravy.

Newmans' injury apparently has packed its bags and is traveling north in his body.

Woah. Let's hope he doesn't get caught taking HGH in order to ... you know ... be a man.

Me and you can be the starting CBs against Rex Grossman.

We do not need Newmanthis week.

If Newman plays we will get our first glimpse of the Phillips 34 with a side of whoop ***.
