The Facts:
Following up on an ongoing story. ... Chad Pennington’s latest shoulder injury is “long-term,” but Chad Henne might be available for Thursday night’s game against the Chicago Bears, HC Tony Sparano said Monday.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Third-string QB Tyler Thigpen is the most likely starter against the Bears after finishing Sunday’s victory over Tennessee when injuries sidelined Miami’s top two QBs. The Dolphins gave at least two free-agent QBs a tryout Monday and the team was expected to sign a roster replacement for Pennington. Various reports have indicated Patrick Ramsey is that replacement. ... Whatever the case, turnaround time is brief this week, with only a single practice — on Tuesday—between games. That makes it less likely Henne will be able to recover enough to start, but Sparano was noncommittal. “We’ll see. Right now we are day to day,” he said. “Tyler will be ready, depending on what Chad Henne does this week.”
