Decker has started all eight games he's appeared in this season and all 120 that he's played in over the course of his career.

His next chance at suiting up will be Week 11 against Jacksonville on Sunday, Nov. 17. Dan Skipper and Colby Sorsdal are the top candidates to start at left tackle in Decker's absence.

Decker (groin) was a nonparticipant in Wednesday's practice.
