Panthers WLB Thomas Davis injured his right knee in the loss at New Orleans, and teammates feared it could be serious. Davis, one of the team’s top players, missed a month of preseason with an MCL sprain in the same knee. “We’re hoping that it’s better than he expects it is,” SLB Na’il Diggs said. “Right now, all we can do is stay optimistic. Maybe it’s just a couple of weeks with an MCL or whatever.” Even though Landon Johnson is a capable backup, he doesn’t make the kind of explosive plays that Davis can make, and the Panthers’ defense would change dramatically without him.

Chad Ochocinco may not draw scrutiny from the NFL for his tongue-in-cheek attempt to bribe an official along the sideline in the Bengals’ defeat of the Ravens. As officials reviewed a would-be Ochocinco catch, the Bengals’ colorful receiver borrowed a $1 bill from someone near the Bengals bench and tried to chase down a receiver. Ochocinco admitted after the game it was done in fun, as officials ruled the catch was no good. “I was just being me,” he told NFL Network, “… to bribe the ref and make sure he was going to give us that call. “I wasn’t going to do it for real.”

James Harrison signed the most lucrative contract by a defensive player in Steelers history last April. The $50 million man, however, is not above the kind of grunt work he regularly performed — Harrison excelled on the Steelers’ kick coverage teams — before becoming one of the most feared linebackers in the NFL. “If that’s something they would call on me to do, then I would gladly go out there and do it,” Harrison said of reprising his role as a heat-seeking missile on kickoffs and punts. “I don’t think we’re in that dire of a situation yet.” The Steelers do have to shore up a kickoff coverage unit that ranked first in the NFL last season but has been gashed for touchdowns in the past two games.
