Starks on IR, Pats-Dolphins Injury Report
The New England Patriots placed cornerback Duane Starks on injured reserve with severe burns on over 80 percent of his deep coverages. Starks, who started the season with a thigh injury and recently had shoulder problems that may require surgery, is done for the 2005 season.
The Patriots have yet to fill Starks' spot, leaving 52 players on the active roster.
New England, who started with 10 defensive backs on the roster, have placed five on injured reserve. Starks joins fellow cornerbacks Tyrone Poole and Chad Scott, and safeties Guss Scott and Rodney Harrison.
The defensive backs available are far from impressive. The Patriots worked out Terrell Buckley, Aaron Beasley, Rod Babers and Mario Edwards last month. Chances are, New England will sign one of them.

You have a great blog here, i've been checking it out constantly since I discovered it. Your Starks joke = classic. Good riddance to him. I hope you don't mind that I'm putting up a link to your blog in my sports blog, since a lot of my Pats fan friends read it. Keep up the good work!
