There sure seems to have been alot of injuries this past week, and I'm now confused by who all is actually injured. I would appreciate a list of who all is injured and what their status is.

LB Al Singleton (collarbone): The starting left outside linebacker suffered a broken collarbone in Sunday's game against Arizona, and likely will be placed on injured reserve and lost for the season. Singleton had started eight consecutive games this year. He was replaced in the lineup against Arizona by Scott Fujita.

CB Anthony Henry (groin): Late in the fourth quarter of the Arizona game the starting right cornerback suffered a groin strain. Cowboys head coach Bill Parcells said he would have a better handle on how significant the strain is when the players report back to practice on Thursday during this bye week. Henry likely would be replaced in the starting lineup by veteran Aaron Glenn if he isn't ready for the Philly game, Nov. 14.

S Willie Pile (groin): The team's backup and nickel safety suffered a groin strain against Arizona, and his status for the remainder of this week is questionable. While the Cowboys do not have a game on Sunday, they will return to practice on Thursday, when Pile's status and possible availability for the Nov. 14 game against Philadelphia will be reevaluated.

DT Jay Ratliff (ankle): The rookie defensive tackle suffered what appears to be a high right ankle sprain against Arizona, and was walking around in a protective boot on Monday. He will be reevaluated on Thursday.

CB Jacques Reeves (ankle): The backup corner and emergency safety suffered a sprained ankle against Arizona, and will be reevaluated on Thursday.

RB Julius Jones (ankle): Parcells seemed a bit more optimistic about the second-year back's chances of returning for the Nov. 14 Philadelphia game after suffering that high, left ankle sprain in the first half Oct. 9 against Philadelphia. Jones has missed the past three games.

WR Patrick Crayton (ankle): The second-year wide receiver likely will miss another five weeks after suffering the ankle injury in overtime against the New York Giants. Crayton had his right ankle scoped to remove loose particles and now must recover from those badly strained ligaments. He was originally projected to be out six-to-eight weeks. He stills wearing a walking boot, but at least if off crutches. Crayton said he must stay in the boot at least another week.

IIRC Singleton AND Ratliff were placed on IR. That's why were were able to sign Scott and Dixon....

And Henry's is a groin tear not a groin strain. It's a painful nagging injury, but often one players play through.

Was Ratliff hurt that bad, or, did Cowboys just put him on I.R. list to free up a roster space. I'm guessing it is a pretty bad injury since he is out for the year once he is placed on I.R., right?
