After missing the past two weeks to injury, Buffalo Bills running back Willis McGahee may be ready to return to action this week against the Jacksonville Jaguars. McGahee suffered a rib injury against the Green Bay Packers on November 5th, and did not play against the Indianapolis Colts or the Houston Texans. However, he has practiced this week and was in full pads on Thursday. McGahee leads the Bills with 579 yards rushing and would go up against a tough Jacksonville Jaguars run defense this week if he played.

Still, McGahee's status is unclear. Head coach Dick Jauron has not given the official word on whether or not he'll play this Sunday. If he doesn't play, the Bills would stick with veteran running back Anthony Thomas, who has played well in relief of McGahee. Thomas has not carried the load in practice this week though, another sign that McGahee will probably get the start.

Also, Bills third receiver Josh Reed will probably miss this week's game due to the bruised kidney he suffered against the Packers several weeks ago. He practiced on Thursday, but his chances of actually playing are not too good.

PFC Analysis: If McGahee is on your team, give him the start unless you hear otherwise right before the start of the game. And, in terms of Reed, he shouldn't even be on your fantasy team.
