The loss of Nate Clements meant the team needed some cornerback depth behind Dre Bly and Marcus Hudson . Today the 49ers made an initial move to shore up that depth by signing CB Keith Smith . To make room for Smith, the 49ers released much maligned KR/WR Micheal Spurlock . Below are some details from the 49ers about the move. I was looking for some info and found some interesting stuff. Our Lions...

We've got the final injury report for the week, but there remain a lot of question marks. The Colts have listed Dwight Freeney and Reggie Wayne as Questionable, which means there's a 50-50 chance they'll play. I'd imagine most folks are anticipating they'll play, because the "Questionable" designation is more or less a joke in the NFL. Both Freeney and Wayne were full participants in practice...

A day later and the Colts non-practice list continues with a couple of small additions. No further word on Reggie Wayne , although Colts President Bill Polian said he still expects Wayne to start on Sunday . This will make tomorrow's final injury report all the more interesting. I still see no reason not to expect Wayne on the field, but it's something to pay close attention to. We'll definitely have...

Lots of people talk about possible bankruptcy for the City of Detroit, but who really knows what that means? Marcus Hudson, senior director for an international financial advisory firm in Southfield, explains what Chapter 9 could, and could not, mean to the Motor City.

And we're back finally with an injury report. Given the apparent length of the bye week, this is just one more exciting step in our return to actual football for the rest of the season. The importance of this game only adds to the level of excitement. As for the return of Frank Gore from injury? Well that just puts me over the top. Michael Lewis remains a question mark. Singletary indicated Lewis was...

The final injury report for the week was just sent out with nothing particularly shocking. Jones as doubtful is an upgrade from previous weeks, but I'd imagine he'll be inactive this week while he continues to try and get back into game shape and get his playing legs under him. For the Seahawks , it'll be interesting to see if Jones and Spencer get into the game this weekend or not. Questionable is...

Walter Jones and Deion Branch practiced today, but Brandon Mebane , T.J. Houshmandzadeh and Lofa Tatupu did not. Game status has not been revealed. Seattle might be very banged up. It could be resting key players. The new coaching staff seems very protective of its talent, and it wouldn't surprise me if Houshmandzadeh and Mebane not practicing is a precautionary move. Nevertheless, Seattle absolutely...

Fooch's Update: Was just notified that Brandon Mebane did not practice today either. If he sits out this Sunday (no guarantee obviously), that would certainly be a plus for the 49ers offense. The only big changes today for the 49ers is that Marcus Hudson and Justin Smith were full participants in practice. Over on the Seahawks side of things Houshmandzadeh continues to sit out practice, so we'll see...
