Vick pre-emptively surrenders before sentencing
Michael Vick got a head start on a possible long prison
stretch Monday, surrendering three weeks before he was to
be sentenced for his involvement in a bloody dogfighting ring.
The disgraced Atlanta Falcons quarterback surrendered to U.S.
marshals in what his lawyer said was another step in his
public repentance. "From the beginning, Mr. Vick has accepted
responsibility for his actions, and his self-surrender further
demonstrates that acceptance," attorney Billy Martin said in
a statement. "Michael wants to again apologize to everyone who
has been hurt in this matter, and he thanks all of the people
who have offered him and his family prayers and support during
this time." Vick pleaded guilty in August to a federal
dogfighting conspiracy charge after his three co-defendants
pleaded guilty and agreed to cooperate with authorities.
He's scheduled to be sentenced Dec. 10 on a federal dogfighting
conspiracy charge but worked out a deal "to voluntarily enter
custody prior to his sentencing hearing," according to a court
document. The federal sentencing guideline range is projected
at a year to 18 months, but Vick, who has admitted bankrolling
the Bad Newz Kennels, could be sentenced to up to five years
in prison.
Broncos RB Henry misses second straight game with knee injury
Broncos running back Travis Henry missed his second straight
game Monday night against Tennessee because of a partially
torn posterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. The Titans
were without two starters on defense in tackle Albert
Haynesworth (right hamstring) and cornerback Nick Harper
(concussion). Starting offensive guard Benji Olson was also
on the inactive list. Eugene Amano started in his place.
Randy Starks replaced Haynesworth and Reynaldo Hill took
the place of Harper. Henry, the Broncos' leading rusher, has
missed three of the Broncos' past four games. He also sat
out Denver's overtime loss to Green Bay on Oct. 29 with sore
ribs. Henry is fighting to keep the league from suspending
him over the results of a drug test. He had a hearing with
the NFL on Friday in Phoenix and could hear back from the
league as soon as Tuesday. If he's unsuccessful, Henry faces
a yearlong suspension. Selvin Young replaced Henry in the
backfield. Young had 109 yards and a touchdown last Sunday
against Kansas City. The Broncos didn't activate receiver
Javon Walker, who's recovering from surgery on his right knee.
Tennessee also waived linebacker LeVar Woods before the game.

Vikings say Peterson's a 'long shot' to play vs. Giants
The Minnesota Vikings will probably be without star running
back Adrian Peterson for at least another week. Peterson was
sent to work out in a swimming pool Monday for continued rehab
on his injured right knee. Coach Brad Childress said he didn't
expect Peterson to be ready for the next game against the New
York Giants. "It's hard to say right now. He hasn't been on
hard land yet," Childress said. Chester Taylor resumed his
role as the featured back and rushed for 164 yards on Sunday
in a victory over Oakland with Peterson watching from the
sideline. Peterson, who still leads the league by a wide
margin with 1,081 yards rushing, was hurt in the third quarter
of the Nov. 11 game against Green Bay on a tackle by Packers
cornerback Al Harris that caused his lateral collateral ligament
to tear. The LCL is the least critical of the four knee ligaments.
Peterson has spent "literally, six to eight hours a day" in the
training room since then, Childress said. He'll have to practice
before being cleared for action in a game, so it's likely he
won't return until some time in December. Also, fullback Tony
Richardson sprained his knee and also hurt his ankle against
the Raiders.
