Ghiaciuc returns to practice, likely to start Sunday

Center Eric Ghiaciuc, who sprained his knee Nov. 30 against Baltimore, returned to practice today and is likely to start Sunday against Oakland. He remained questionable.

After practice, coach Marvin Lewis said he knew who would start at center but would not say.

Regular center Rich Braham, out since Week 2, remained doubtful and did not practice.

In other changes to the injury report, wide receiver Kelley Washington (hamstring) was downgraded to doubtful. He did not practice all week. He is not expected to be active.

Cornerback Tory James (illness), wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh (back) and defensive tackle John Thornton (knee) remained probable but did return to practice today.

Despite frigid conditions today, the temperature for the game Sunday is expected to reach at least 50 degrees.

The majority of the young players arrested are young: henry, askew, mcneal, odell, frostee rucker. Thats why I put this on Marvin Lewis doorstep. Granted he couldnt do anything about Rucker's situation, but I want to know what he has done this year to guide this young trouble makers. Maybe assign each one a veteran player for support and guidance. Noone can control these young guys, but they seem like they feel they can do whatever they want. Did we know they were trouble before we drafted them? Yes, and we can't discount that. That's why marvin or his staff should have stepped up to the challenge right when they were drafted.
