Several NFL stars are dealing with nagging injuries that could affect their play this weekend.

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick was held out of practice yesterday because of a sore left hamstring. Vick acknowledged that hamstring injuries can be very tricky but thinks that he will be ready for Sunday's matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

Both Donovan McNabb and Terrell Owens were held out of practice yesterday because of mild groin strains. Both are expected to play on Sunday when the Philadelphia Eagles take on the Oakland Raiders. The rest that McNabb and Owens were given was more of a precautionary measure.

New York Jets running back Curtis Martin may have the most serious injury of all. He had an MRI on his bruised right knee and has been held out of practice all week. There is a good chance that he will be limited on Sunday. If he can't go, Derrick Blaylock will fill in.
