Gonzalez Update

Head coach Herman Edwards confirmed that starting TE Tony Gonzalez (sprained shoulder) will not play against the Raiders on Sunday.

"He's getting more tests today and we'll find out tomorrow or the next day the extent of how long he'll be out. This weekend, he's definitely out," Edwards said. "It is a shame, a guy like that, he's having a terrific year for you and has been a staple in the last month and really getting involved in the offense. We're going to have to find another way now. He's going to be missed this week, obviously. But we've just got to find a way to get the ball, when we decide to pass, to other players."

Backup TE Jason Dunn will likely start for him with FB/TE Kris Wilson also seeing time there.
