"We don't want to get it done sooner and make the wrong decision," Kelly said.

--Safety Jaquiski Tartt, who was placed on the active non-football injury list, has a muscle tweak, Kelly said. Tartt is only expected to only miss a couple days of practice.

--Glenn Dorsey, L.J. McCray and rookie Will Redmond all passed their conditioning tests and are available to practice. Each player sustained a season ending ACL injury last year. Kelly said those players will slowly be worked back into the mix to full-time practice.

--Kelly said he did not know whether Ian Williams' ankle injury is a potential career-ender. "He wasn't going to be able to play this season. I just know that." Williams on Saturday was placed on season-ending reserve/non-football injury.
