Week 2 injury round-up

Here's a quick update on injuries suffered on Sunday:

Philadelphia quarterback Kevin Kolb was held out of Sunday's game with a concussion. Barring any setbacks, he is scheduled to start in Week 3.

Atlanta running back Michael Turner suffered a groin injury Sunday and did not return to the game. The coaches are saying the injury is not serious but his status for this weekend is unknown.

San Diego running back Ryan Mathews tweaked his ankle during Sunday's game. The Chargers said he could have returned to the game if they needed him but, by that time, San Diego was comfortably ahead. Owners should know more about his status on Tuesday.

Houston wideout Andre Johnson is scheduled to have an MRI on the ankle he injured during Week 2. The severity of the injury is not yet known.

Detroit wide receiver Nate Burleson also suffered an ankle injury and his status for next week is unknown.

The Vikings' Percy Harvin aggravated his hip injury during Sunday's game and was unable to contribute much in the second half. Right now he is considered questionable for Week 3.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten suffered a blow to the head during Week 2 against Chicago and had to leave the game. He looked fairly clear-headed on the sidelines and should be able to play this weekend.
