Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Although it's not yet official, the report that Shockey will start should come as no surprise; the star tight end has practiced this week and maintained all along that he would return to action after sitting out the regular-season closer due to the injury. ... While there's little doubt about Shockey's status, those interested should check back in the hour leading up to this afternoon's kickoff for the official inactive lists for both teams.
