Fantasy football injury update




















According to Adam Schefter, Richard Sherman has been placed on injured reserve, he will be out for playoffs. Source: Adam Schefter. Fantasy Impact: For the second time this season, Sherman has been placed on injured reserve meaning he is out for the remainder of the season. A follow-up surgery is also expected to be needed and leaves Hill without a timetable for his return.

Source: Adam Schefter on Twitter. Fantasy Impact: It's a sour note for an otherwise solid season for Hill. Hill stepped into the starting role for the Saints after Jameis Winston and Trevor Siemian went down with injury and while his performance on the NFL field was less than desirable, his fantasy production was elite.

Sports Betting. Fantasy Impact: Edmonds said himself he will be good to go on Monday against the Rams. It will still be worth monitoring his status at Cardinals practice through Saturday. James Conner did not practice on Thursday. Fantasy Impact: Kliff Kingsbury made it known that Conner is a game-time decision for Monday's wildcard game against the Rams, so this should come as no huge surprise.

Nonetheless, it will still be worth monitoring his status at practice on Friday and Saturday. Elijah Mitchell logged a limited practice on Thursday. Fantasy Impact: After missing practice on Wednesday, Mitchell is on track to be on the field on Sunday against Dallas.

He should be in line for a large workload as the 49ers look to get the run game going early against the Cowboys. Jimmy Garoppolo logged a full practice on Thursday. Fantasy Impact: As expected, Garoppolo will be ready to go for Sunday's wilcard tilt against the Cowboys.

Source: Rob Demovsky on Twitter. Fantasy Impact: While it's never ideal to have injuries as you get ready for a playoff run, the Packers have the benefit of a first round bye which means even with Valdes-Scantling not practicing currently he could still very well suit up for the team's next game.

When healthy Valdes-Scantling typically battles with Allen Lazard for WR 2 duties and will seemingly have a similar role as either the second or third WR option for Rodgers. Source: Adam Schefter on Twitter.

Fantasy Impact: Smith-Schuster was placed on IR all the way back on October 16, , but it seems like he could have an outside chance of playing on Sunday vs the Chiefs. Of course this is all speculation in large part as the Steelers will ultimately be the ones who have to make the final decision as they now have 21 days to activate Smith-Schuster to the active roster.

If Smith-Schuster does end up playing somehow, his usage is going to be a complete mystery which makes him hard to trust for DFS purposes. Source: Geoff Hobson on Twitter. Fantasy Impact: Knowing that Higgins should be available on Saturday vs the Raiders is a big win for the Bengals as the second-year WR has been an integral part of the Cincinnati offense all year long. Given that Higgins also took his normal amount of reps in practice it seems like he should not be limited come game day.

Expect high upside potential from Higgins as Burrow has looked his way often as of late and given the favorable matchup vs the Raiders. Source: Greg Auman on Twitter. Fantasy Impact: Barrett suffered a knee injury late in the year but looks to have a chance to make a return as the Bucs get ready to face the Eagles in the playoffs. Barrett is one of the veteran defensive leaders for Tampa and his return would be very welcomed considering the challenges a dual threat QB like Jalen Hurts presents for opposing defenses.

Fantasy Impact: Given that Fournette was recently activated from IR, paired with him now practicing it sure seems like the Bucs will be getting their top RB back just in time for their playoff clash vs the Eagles. Expect Fournette to be an integral part of the Tampa Bay offense given how many injuries they have had recently from the RB group all the way to their WR's.

Experts' early QB rankings Jamey Eisenberg 2 min read. Jackson ankle is out for Sunday's game against the Steelers after missing practice all week. Tyler Huntley, who's posted a Garoppolo thumb is questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams after practicing in limited fashion all week. As per late Saturday night reports, San Francisco is trending strongly toward rolling with the veteran quarterback for Sunday's must-win contest, with rookie Trey Lance, who drew the Week 17 start versus the Texans, heading back to his usual backup role under such a scenario.

There may not be definitive word on Garoppolo's status until inactives are announced 90 minutes before the game's pm ET kickoff. Burrow knee is out for Sunday's game against the Browns but worked back to a full practice Friday and is simply being rested ahead of the postseason.

Brandon Allen will be under center for Cincinnati against Cleveland in the regular-season finale. Goff knee is questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers after practicing in limited fashion all week. If Goff does return from his two-game absence, Tim Boyle will revert to his usual No. Mayfield shoulder was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, ruling him out for Sunday's season finale against the Bengals.

Veteran Case Keenum will be under center for Cleveland versus Cincinnati. With the rookie out for the final game of the season, Andy Dalton will draw another start for Chicago with Nick Foles serving as his backup. Glennon wrist is out for Sunday's game against Washington after missing practice all week. Jake Fromm will make his second career start, with Brian Lewerke serving as his backup. Jones knee is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions after practicing in limited fashion all week.

Even if Jones does play in a meaningless finale for Green Bay, A. Dillon and Patrick Taylor are expected to see the majority of backfield work. In his absence, Samaje Perine should serve as the clear lead back, while Chris Evans and Trayveon Williams should mix in as complementary options. Harris hamstring is questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins after practicing in limited fashion all week.

If Harris were to sit out, Rhamondre Stevenson would likely handle lead-back duties. Jacobs ribs is questionable for Sunday night's game against the Chargers after practicing in limited fashion all week.

Although Jacobs is likely to play in what amounts to an elimination game for both clubs, Peyton Barber and Jalen Richard would be in line to handle the backfield workload if he were to sit.

Hunt ankle is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals after practicing in limited fashion all week. Ingram knee is questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons and finished the week with two missed practices. Conner heel is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks after practicing in limited fashion all week. If Conner were to sit out a third straight game, Eno Benjamin and Jonathan Ward would be in line to serve as Arizona's backfield options with Chase Edmonds ribs already ruled out.

Edmonds ribs is out for Sunday's game against the Seahawks after missing practice all week. Eno Benjamin and Jonathan Ward would be in line for significantly expanded roles if James Conner heel joined Edmonds on the inactives list. Jones ankle is out for Sunday's game against the Panthers after missing practice all week. Samuel hamstring is out for Sunday's game against the Giants after missing practice all week.

DeAndre Carter should bump up to the No.
