ESPN New York - [Full Article]

Darrelle Revis could see plenty of Hakeem Nicks, the Giants' best wide receiver, on Saturday. Nicks is coming off a game in which he dropped a sure-handed touchdown pass after he lost it in the sun early in the first quarter during the Giants' 23-10 loss to the Redskins last Sunday.

Nicks is looking to redeem himself, but he is not getting caught up in the hype of a potential one-on-one matchup with Revis.

Victor Cruz, though, is looking forward to seeing those two go at it.

"Not only is [Revis] good athletically, but he watched a lot of film," Cruz said. "He knows the routes that we like to do on certain downs and distances and he picks up on tendencies. We have to be disciplined. We can't show any of our stuff and make sure we get to the right depths and using the right technique against them."

"It is going to be a good one," Cruz said of Revis against Nicks. "I think it is going to be a lot of back and forth, both guys making plays, both guys are very talented. Whoever makes that last play to win the game will be the victor."

Fantasy Impact:

Here's how the last few true WR1s have fared against the Jets and Revis: Dwayne Bowe (6-69), Santana Moss (5-42), Steve Johnson (8-75-1, 3-84), Vincent Jackson (1-15) and Brandon Marshall (6-109).

Washington Post - [Full Article]

After missing the previous four games due to injury, receiver Santana Moss admitted to some pregame jitters Sunday.

“Once I got out there and got a couple hits here and there and caught a couple balls, it was like normal,” Moss said.

Making his return to the starting lineup, Moss had 29 yards on four catches in Sunday’s win at Seattle. He was targeted seven times, tied for the team lead with Jabar Gaffney and Roy Helu.

Moss broke a bone in his hand Oct. 23 at Carolina and didn’t return to practice until last week. He said his hand caused no problems Sunday.

Washington Post - [Full Article]

Washington Redskins wide receiver Santana Moss will return to action Sunday for the first time since he broke his left hand. But although he is glad to take the field, Moss hasn’t allowed himself to become overly excited.

"It feels good, but me talking about it isn’t going to make it better or make it worse," said Moss, who has 23 catches for 301 yards and two touchdowns in six games. "I’m glad to be back going, I just want to go out and help turn this thing around."

Moss suffered the injury while trying to break his fall during the first half of Washington’s game against Carolina.

He had two pins inserted in his hand. They were removed last week, and Moss began catching balls soon after. The receiver said on Friday that he hasn’t had any trouble holding onto the ball, and hasn’t had to alter the way he catches.

The Redskins offense has struggled without Moss in the lineup. Coach Mike Shanahan said he expects the 11th-year pro to quickly regain his rhythm.

Fantasy Impact:

Moss can help fantasy owners down the stretch provided Rex Grossman can get him the ball.

Santana Moss says his hand is "ready"
Wednesday, November 23, 2011, 4:46pm

Rich Campbell, Twitter - [Full Article]

Redskins WR Santana Moss after practice today: "I feel like my hand is ready."

Fantasy Impact:

Moss wouldn't be a bad addition to a team in need of WR help. He wasn't exactly tearing it up before the injury, but had three 60+ yard games and two TDs in the first four weeks. Those games came with Rex Grossman at QB, and now that Grossman is back under center, Moss may be able to make some noise down the stretch.

Redskins WR Santana Moss will try to catch balls in drill work. "If he feels okay, he's probably in good enough shape to play," per Mike Shanahan.

Skins to stick with Grossman at QB

Redskins coach Mike Shanahan says he's sticking with Rex Grossman this week at QB.

Fantasy Impact:

Grossman had his bright spots earlier in the year but was on a steady pace downhill. He'll be without Santana Moss for at least another week, which won't help his value. He hasn't done much to show he's worth having on your roster.
