The New Orleans Saints listed running Darren Sproles as questionable for Sunday's game against the Oakland Raiders. Sproles has missed the past two weeks after undergoing surgery on a hand that was injured in a loss to Denver in week eight. Interim coach Joe Vitt said Friday that Sproles experienced some swelling in the hand. If Sproles plays Sunday, Saints offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael indicated to the New Orleans Times-Picayune that the Saints could use a four-man rotation with Sproles, Mark Ingram, Chris Ivory and Pierre Thomas.
