Jason Elam says he’s playing Sunday. Al Wilson says he’s “50-50,” befitting a player who is listed as questionable on the injury report for Sunday’s game, although he has made it through all three practices this week.
There is no such question for Chad Mustard; he’s listed as probable and made it through all practices this week, even though he admitted that the shoulder he injured on his second catch at Kansas City 15 days ago remains “a little sore.”
Sitting out last weekend helped — although he didn’t know he’d be scatched until Sunday.
“It was kind of a last-minute decision,” Mustard said. “You just try to go with what the coaches say, you’ve got to be ready no matter what the circumstance. I found out Sunday morning and they told me right before the game.”
But Mustard now feels it was the best decision.
“I got an extra couple of days over the weekend where I can rest it and let it heal and get it back to normal,” Mustard said. “That’s definitely an advantage.
“(The shoulder) is doing well. I’m cleared to practice and play and everything.”

Well…I hope Al is there on Sunday. We’ll be fine without him, but he adds some serious stability to the defense that we’ll need in hostile territory. I’m glad Mustard is probable and Elam is kicking. There are a lot of bumps and bruises on the team (biggest is safety in my opinion), but nothing that would cause us to have a serious disadvantage during the game…
all we have to do is go in san diego territory with warriors mentality and be prepare for the dog fight no matter who’s on the field or who’s not , we have to earn this playoffs spot by ourselves , if not , see you next year .
i am not going to lie to you everyone but I was quite worried that Wilson was really hurt. When I saw him lay on the field I was afraid that he wasnt going to be in shape to finish the season or even make it to another Pro Bowl. When I saw him laying there, I ran to my dad and asked him if he had seen it.
