Damon Huard will start against the Chargers in Week 13, as Brodie Croyle has been ruled out due to a bruised back, the AP reports. Huard's best game of the season (284 yards, two scores) came against the Chargers in Week 4, but we don't expect Damon to hit those numbers this time around. He's not a good fantasy start.

Damon Huard was knocked out of Sunday's game after taking a big hit. He was on the sideline with an ice pack on his neck and did not return. Brodie Croyle stepped in and fared well, completing 17-of-30 passes for 192 yards a touchdown and an inteception. Whether Huard is healthy for the Chiefs' next game may not keep Croyle from taking over as the starter. Coach Herm Edwards wanted Croyle to take hold of the job before the season, and this performance may give the coach the confidence necessary to hand him the reigns.
