The Facts:
Schilens wants to be back for the second game of the season. “Without getting into anything too specific, I’d say it’s on schedule. Everything is settled, the bone is healing well,” Schilens said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
“It’s not up to me. It’s kind of up to how much pain I have in my foot and how much pain I can deal with,” he added. Schilens broke the fifth metatarsal bone in his foot last month. The team's Week 2 game against the Chiefs does seem realistic in terms of the foot healing. But you have to wonder about conditioning and being in "football shape. ..." Louis Murphy will start opposite fellow rookie Darrius Heyward-Bey for the Raiders until Schilens returns.
