Troy Smith will be QB Sunday against Denver
LONDON | With starting quarterback Alex Smith ruled out because of a separated shoulder, San Francisco 49ers backup Troy Smith will start Sunday against Denver.

Cardinals
Quarterback Hall returns to practice
TEMPE, Ariz. | Three days after what he said was the first concussion of his football career, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Max Hall practiced Wednesday.
Hall said he's "good to roll" for Sunday's home game against Tampa Bay, but coach Ken Whisenhunt said he would have to see how the rookie does through the week before being more definitive. Whisenhunt said backup Derek Anderson would get extra reps with the first unit in case Hall can't go.
