The medical staff might have a difference of opinion. It probalby hurts more like a fracture than it really is.
"Just test it out and see who much I can do," Buehler said before Thursday's practice. "If I can do the whole practice effectively that's what I plan on doing. If I can kick today, I can kick Sunday."
In other injuries, free safety Ken Hamlin, out two-to-four weeks with a right high-ankle sprain will wear a walking boot for two weeks.
Right tackle Marc Colombo, out up to six weeks to recover from surgery on his left ankle and fractures to his left fibula, is wearing a walking boot as well. He does not need a cast.
Also, cornerback Mike Jenkins said he should play Sunday and that the swelling in his bruised left bicep is almost gone. The swelling stretched from the middle of his biceps to just past the elbow.
