herewere indications Tuesday
■ the Oilers were making a rich
tract offer to try to lure quar-
iack Ken Stabler out of a one-
nth retirement, but even if he
is the team he will be hard-
ised to be ready for the Rams
e,
The medical report on No. 1

iy is that a tom shoulder muscle

isting Reaves into the lead
It’s a different situation to start
In you’re used to subbing into

i and looking forward to it. I
Iwant to have fun out there.
It’s a switch for me. In the past I
have been a nervous
Ick.”
fter playing for the Philadel-
i Eagles and Cincinnati Ben-
gals, drug and alcohol addictions
forced Reaves from the game and
into a rehabilitation program re
commended by the Minnesota
Vikings last summer. He sat out
the 1980 season and became a
born-again Christian.
Now he finds himself as the Oil
ers No. 1 signal-caller despite
being acquired only four weeks
ago after Stabler retired unex
pectedly.
“Some of the guys still call me
Dan,” Reaves said Tuesday.
“When coach told the team I was
the No. 1 quarterback today, he
introduced me as John Reaves.’ I
guess John’ wasn’t enough.”
However, Reaves is aware the
Oilers must obtain another quar
terback before the start of the
season.
“Coach (Ed) Biles said in the
team meeting today that going af
ter Stabler was the team’s top
priority. I’ve got all of that to con
tend with, but I’m not listening to
those kinds of voices,” he said.
