LaDainian Tomlinson - Tomlinson says he believes he has played his last game as a San Diego Charger. ( 2/4/2010 ) 
Fantasy Analysis: The running back told The San Diego Union-Tribune on Thursday that he has thought for a while he would be let go by the Chargers. His comments come after more than a month of saying he did not know what would happen. Tomlinson tells the newspaper he doesn't know when the Chargers will release him and that his agent, Tom Condon, might call the club to expedite the process. The NFL's most valuable player in 2006 has two years remaining on his contract.

Larry Fitzgerald - Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald said in an interview with CBSSports.com that he's confident Matt Leinart can get the job done in replacing the retired Kurt Warner as Arizona's new starting QB. Warner retired after the season ended with a playoff loss to New Orleans, and Leinart is expected to be the presumed replacement. "I'm excited," Fitzgerald said. "Matt's waited a long time. To come out of college with all the publicity and all the accolades that he was able to accumulate, I think it's been stressful for him. Finally he's going to get his shot to get it done. ... He worked really hard this year. Matt has shed that negative connotation that he's a party guy. That's really not who he is. He's really a down home, good working guy. We're looking forward to having a big year." ( 2/8/2010 ) 
Fantasy Analysis: We think Fitzgerald will continue to play well even with Leinart as the starting QB. Go into 2010 with Fitzgerald as a No. 1 Fantasy WR and worth a pick beginning in Round 2 in all leagues. He might not be the best player at his position, but Fitzgerald remains an elite talent no matter who is throwing him the ball because he makes plays. "I'm always going to go out there and play my hardest," Fitzgerald said. "Usually that leads to good results."

Drew Brees - Brees tied a Super Bowl record with 32 completions, the last a 2-yard slant to Jeremy Shockey for the winning points with 5:42 remaining, and was chosen the game's MVP in Sunday's Super Bowl win. ( 2/7/2010 ) 
Fantasy Analysis: Brees was a tight 32 of 39 for 288 yards and two TDs against the Colts.

Brian Westbrook - Speaking on WGFX-FM on Monday, Eagles RB Brian Westbrook admitted that he came back from his first concussion too soon last season despite passing the tests involved with the injury. That return played a role in Westbrook suffering his second concussion in his return and then missing significant playing time. "Even though I waited that long amount of time and passed all the tests, I still wasn't completely healed ... and it came back just like that. After that I had to sit out another five or six weeks just for me to be completely sure that I was 100 percent OK." ( 2/8/2010 ) 
Fantasy Analysis: Westbrook was also non-committal on his future but seemed concerned about it. We can't see him coming back and taking on a big workload knowing that taking hits to the helmet will be on his mind and potentially impacting his play. He's no better than a No. 3 Fantasy RB until he proves that he's still a fierce, tough runner with a big share of the workload in Philadelphia's potent offense. LeSean McCoy's outlook is much brighter at this point.

Reggie Wayne - The Indianapolis Colts suddenly have another injury concern after Wayne left practice 20 minutes early. ( 2/5/2010 ) 
Fantasy Analysis: Wayne cut short Friday's workout after aggravating a problem with his right knee. He walked on his own to the training room, and is listed as probable for Sunday's Super Bowl against New Orleans.

Ronnie Brown - Dolphins RB Ronnie Brown said in an interview with CBSSports.com that his injured foot is doing "pretty good," and he's on track to return for the start of the 2010 season. Brown was placed on injured reserve in November with a Lisfranc fracture in his right foot. "Everything feels good," Brown said. "The doctor said everything looks good. From that standpoint I think it's going on as scheduled." Brown said not playing a full year in 2009 was "tough," and he's looking forward toward playing a full season in 2010. "The toughest part of being injured is not being able to participate and go out there," Brown said. "To suffer an injury and not being able to go out there and help your team, it was hard for me. I used what happened this season as fuel for next season." ( 2/8/2010 ) 
Fantasy Analysis: Brown finished 2009 with 648 rush yards, 98 receiving yards and nine total touchdowns (one passing). He will continue to share carries with Ricky Williams in 2010, but Brown is expected to return as the starter. Go into the season with Brown as a solid No. 2 Fantasy RB worth a pick in Round 3 in all leagues. When healthy, Brown is a must-start option in all formats.
