Matt Cassel could miss the season opener against the Bills with a rib injury.
Coach Todd Haley reportedly told backup QB Tyler Palko, "You'd better be ready to play Sunday." Cassel suffered the injury when Packers DT Howard Green planted him in the second quarter of the preseason finale. Cassel originally said he only had the wind knocked out, but it now looks more serious. With Tony Moeaki (ACL tear) also lost for the season, Haley will be second-guessed for playing his starters deep into the final exhibition game.

Questionable for week 1, Roto said it may be a pain management issue rather than forced missed time, Cassel has been pretty prone to play if possible in the past.

Cassel had a full practice today. That's a good sign.
