GREEN BAY, Wis. (Oct. 28, 2005) -- Green Bay Packers tight end David Martin might miss Sunday's game against Cincinnati after straining his right hamstring. -NFL Football-

Martin, second on the depth chart behind Pro Bowler Bubba Franks, was injured while running routes during a 2-minute drill near the end of practice Thursday, coach Mike Sherman said. He's listed as questionable and was kept out of practice Friday. -NFL Football-

"I was running and just cut a little quick," Martin said. He added that he wasn't certain he'd be able to play this weekend. "Right now, it's up in the air." -NFL Football-

Martin has nine catches and two touchdowns in the last three games. He said he feels pressured to make a quick recovery. -NFL Football-

Franks missed all but one snap of three games with a bruised knee before catching three passes for 38 yards in the loss last Sunday to Minnesota. The only other tight end available is Donald Lee. -NFL Football-

Third-down running back Tony Fisher will be making only his second career start in place of Ahman Green (thigh tendon) and Najeh Davenport (ankle), who both are on injured reserve and out for the season. -NFL Football-

Fisher also has had physical problems after being poked in the eye during the Packers' 23-20 loss at Minnesota on Sunday. Fisher suffered minor damage to his retina. -NFL Football-

He had minor laser surgery Tuesday and missed one day of practice this week. ReShard Lee and Walt Williams, signed earlier this week, will back up Fisher on Sunday. -NFL Football-
