against the Detroit Lions despite a shoulder injury.Its getting better daily, he
said. Every morning Im feeling better.Miller was injured taking a hit at the end
of a run in the first quarter on Monday night at Denver . He returned for a few
plays after the hit, but Alfred Blue got the bulk of the carries after
that.Miller said he would be surprised if he isnt able to play, but isnt sure if
hell be able to take as many snaps as he normally does. He said he had an MRI,
which revealed no structural damage to his shoulder, and that it simply will be
a matter of managing his pain on Sunday.The 25-year-old was signed to a
four-year, $26 million contract in the offseason after spending his first four
seasons with the Dolphins. He has been a bright spot for an offense that has
struggled behind new quarterback Brock Osweiler. Miller is fifth in the NFL with
581 yards rushing and has been a workhorse for the Texans, with 136 carries this
season, which ranks sixth in the NFL.Blue has only 30 carries this season
playing behind Miller after starting nine games last season when Arian Foster
was injured and finishing with a career-high 698 yards rushing. He had 11
carries for 63 yards -- both season-highs -- after Miller was injured on
Monday.---AP NFL website:

Islanders dealt Thomas Vanek to the Montreal Canadiens after less than a year on
Long Island. Meanwhile, the Oilers dealt long-time sniper Ales hemsky to the
Ottawa Senators on Wednesday for a fifth-round pick in 2014 and a third-rounder
in 2015.Eoin Morgan believes strength of character is carrying England through a
dramatic World Twenty20 after his side held their nerve against Sri Lanka to
claim a semi-final spot. England are likely to face New Zealand in the last four
after their third win in a row but, like their victories over South Africa and
Afghanistan, this one could easily have gone the other way.Having posted a
target of 172 thanks to Jos Buttler (66no) and Jason Roy (42), England reduced
their opponents to 15 for four only for Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews to hit
a classy half-century that got his side to within a couple of strikes of a shock
reversal. Athers: Buttler unstoppable Michael Atherton says Jos Buttler is one
of the most destructive players in the game Yet when the game reached its
closing moments in Delhi, it was England who showed their steel.Chris Jordan
turned in two brilliant overs at the death, taking three wickets for just 13
runs - with Joe Root taking a stunning catch off Dasun Shanaka that may have
been the pivotal contribution. Stokes says the England players hard work has
paid off after they booked their place in the semi-finals of the World T20 Sri
Lanka still needed 15 off the last over and Ben Stokes was magnificent in the
heat of the moment, giving up just four to rubber stamp a 10-run run.This gives
us a great deal of confidence. I think in three of our wins weve had to show an
immense amount of character, he said.This was completely different in the way we
were way ahead of the game, had them four down quite early and then Angelo got
them back into the game.It asked a completely different question of us. But we
showed quite a lot, both with the bat and the ball. We showed we are capable of
playing both smart cricket and aggressive cricket. Nasser Hussain reviews
Englands 10-run win over Sri Lanka, helping them to reach the semi-finals of the
ICC World T20 I think weve struggled to do that in the last six to eight months
or so and its an area we are constantly trying to improve, but today went a long
way to doing that.ddddddddddddMorgan had no shortage of key moments to reflect
on and was keen to spread the praise among all of those who stood tall at vital
times.They were in the game right until the end so Stokes last over was as
crucial as it gets, he said. The Verdict panel discuss bowling at the death
after England advanced into semi-finals Rootys catch gave us a huge lift.
Wickets are priceless at that stage of the game and given that it didnt allow
the batsmen to cross was an even bigger benefit really.As well as Jos innings I
thought Jason was outstanding as well. He showed great composure and when he
wanted to take someone down he showed complete commitment.Well take a lot of
confidence from the overall performance. We can give it a couple of days to let
the dust settle, reflect on what happened and take the absolute beauties into
the semi-final. Watch Australias crunch clash with India, in Mohali, on Sky
