Parker Held Out of Practice for 4th Day in a Row

Steelers star RB Willie Parker was held out of practice for the 4th consecutive day on Saturday, due to swelling in his knee. The Steelers say it is merely precautionary and that Parker will be back at full strength very soon.

This might be something to keep your eye on, as many experts have looked at Parker with curious eyes as to whether he is big enough to handle a full-time workload. Last year was his first season doing such, so this knee swelling might be a sign of things to come. I've never been one that wanted to put my fantasy eggs in the Willie Parker basket and this news does nothing to make me want to change that belief. Keep your eyes and ears open on this one.
