In his press conference Wednesday afternoon, head coach Wade Phillips said that both Marion Barber and DeMarcus Ware are nursing fractures; despite the injuries though--Barber has a fractured thumb, Ware has a stress fracture in his foot--both players practiced in the rain at Valley Ranch yesterday.
Barber's injury was suffered during the Kansas City game, and initially dismissed as a bad jam. After discomfort remained however, an X-Ray revealed a fractured left thumb. As Phillips noted, Barber is right handed, which means the thumb shouldn't affect his ability to carry the ball.
Ware, Phillips said, had had discomfort in the foot for some time, but only recently got an MRI.
