NFL notes: Turner practices for second day

Turner practices for second day

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta Falcons running back Michael Turner practiced lightly yesterday for the second straight day, and backup Jerious Norwood was a full participant.

Turner missed last week's 34-31 loss to the New York Giants with a high ankle sprain, and coach Mike Smith listed the Pro Bowl selection as "limited" in practice.

Norwood has missed the past five games with a hip flexor but has been in practice the past two days. Jason Snelling (L.C. Bird, U.Va.) started last week and ran 25 times for 76 yards and two touchdowns.

Turner led the NFL with 376 carries in 2008 and finished second to Adrian Peterson with 1,699 yards rushing. He's averaging 5.0 yards an attempt this year on 165 carries.

Steelers look at QBs Ramsey, Bouman

PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers have met with experienced quarterbacks Patrick Ramsey and Todd Bouman, a sign that injured backup Charlie Batch might be out longer than the team first expected.

Batch broke his left wrist in Kansas City on Sunday, leaving second-year quarterback Dennis Dixon as the only backup to starter Ben Roethlisberger on the 53-man roster. Former Pitt quarterback Tyler Palko is on the practice squad.

Bills' McGee practicing again

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills starting cornerback Terrence McGee is practicing for the first time in more than three weeks since having surgery on his right knee. He could play against Miami this weekend.

McGee said he experienced no pain in his knee after practicing on a limited basis. He's been out since having minor surgery Nov. 2 during Buffalo's bye.
