Now, let’s break down all the latest fantasy-relevant injury news in this week’s Fantasy Football Injury Report for Week 15. We will continually update this list. Justin Herbert (QB) Los Angeles Chargers – Another damaging blow to an already decimated quarterback position. Herbert fractured his index finger on his throwing hand and will miss the remainder of the 2023 season. Easton Stick is next man up for the Chargers, who look destined for an offseason reboot with a new staff. Josh Jacobs (RB) Las Vegas Raiders – A knee injury forced Jacobs to leave the Raiders’ Week 14 loss early. Also, with the club on a short week, Jacobs is unlikely to practice at all. Therefore, he should be considered questionable to doubtful to play on Thursday. We will have updates in Discord as soon as news breaks. Alexander Mattison (RB) Minnesota Vikings – Mattison injured his ankle on Sunday and is looking doubtful for Week 15. Therefore, Ty Chandler is a top waiver wire target. Alexander Mattison with a right high ankle sprain. He’s had this exact injury before. Week 15 looking grim. pic.twitter.com/WgbMs8M6V8 — Edwin Porras, DPT (@FBInjuryDoc) December 11, 2023 C.J. Stroud (QB) Houston Texans – Stroud took a late hit and had his head bounce off the notorious MetLife Stadium turf. He is now in the NFL’s concussion protocol, which puts his Week 15 status in doubt. Nearly two-thirds of players who are diagnosed with a concussion miss at least one week. However, Stroud will have the full week to prepare for the Titans if he can be cleared. Justin Jefferson (WR) Minnesota Vikings – After a long stint on IR, Jefferson’s highly anticipated return was brief. A chest injury forced him from last week’s game. However, there was some good news after the game. Jefferson is day-to-day. Vikings’ HC Kevin O’Connell considers WR Justin Jefferson day-to-day with the chest injury he suffered Sunday vs. the Raiders and the team believes he has a chance to play Saturday vs. the Bengals. — Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) December 11, 2023 Nico Collins (WR) Houston Texans – The Texans were decimated by injuries in New York. Collins suffered a calf ailment in the first half and was unable to return. With QB C.J. Stroud and WR Tank Dell absent, Houston desperately needs Collins to be healthy to have any shot at earning an AFC Wildcard. Dalton Schultz (TE) Houston Texans – Schultz practiced last week, but he was held out. Therefore, Schultz should return to face the Titans. Jonathan Taylor (RB) Indianapolis Colts – The Colts host Minnesota on Saturday. That gives Taylor less of a chance of returning this week. Shane Steichen indicated that he expected Taylor to return at some point this season. Could be coachspeak, but doesn’t sound overly optimistic for Week 15. Brian Robinson (RB) Washington Commanders – A hamstring injury forced Robinson from Washington’s last game. However, the Commanders had a bye last week, which gave Robinson an extra week to recover. There have been no reports out of Washington. Therefore, we will update Robinson’s status in Discord as the week progresses. Josh Palmer (WR) Los Angeles Chargers – The Chargers activated Palmer from IR. He should play this week. Christian Kirk (WR) Arizona Cardinals – The groin/core injury that knocked Kirk out of Jacksonville’s Week 13 game resulted in Kirk being placed on IR. Therefore, his fantasy season is over. Kenny Pickett (QB) Pittsburgh Steelers – Mike Tomlin already announced that Pickett will not play in Week 15. Accordingly, Mitchell Trubisky will nab the start in Indianapolis. Devin Duvernay (WR/KR) Baltimore Ravens – The Ravens put Duvernay on IR with a back injury. Finally, thanks for reading the Fantasy Football Injury Report.

Fantasy Football Waiver Wire: Week 15

Fantasy Football Waiver Wire: Week 15 Congratulations on persevering through a challenging 2023 regular season and making the playoffs! It’s now do or die, with FAAB no longer applicable. However, more costly injuries have undoubtedly derailed many championship hopefuls. Our
Fantasy Football Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em Week 14

Fantasy Football Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em Week 14 This is what all that hard work we put in during the summer was for. Making it to Week 14 with a playoff berth on the line. In the regular-season finale, our Fantasy Football Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em Week 14 will help you secure one final victory before next week’s postseason journey begins. Additionally, FullTime Fantasy has some of the top tools of the trade and accurate rankings. Quarterbacks Start ‘Em Jordan Love (Green Bay Packers) at New York Giants Love is hitting his stride at the opportune moment. He is boasting a noteworthy 90.3 PFF grade in the last five weeks. That ranks fifth among players in his position during this period. Over the past four weeks, Love consistently secured a spot in the top 12 fantasy quarterbacks. That includes two top-seven finishes in the last two weeks. Love’s performance against man defenses has been particularly impressive this season. This includes a significantly higher big-time throw rate (7.0% vs. 3.8%) and a lower turnover-worthy play rate (1.8% vs. 2.5%). Given the Giants’ tendency to play man coverage, the Packers, who are clear favorites, provide a favorable setting for Love to make impactful plays early in the game. The only concern arises if they amass a substantial lead and resort to a more run-heavy strategy in the second half. Josh Dobbs (Minnesota Vikings) at Las Vegas Although trusting Dobbs may require some courage-especially after his challenging Week 12 performance against the Bears with four interceptions and a mere 6.5 Fantasy points- considering him as a low-end starting Fantasy quarterback for Week 14 against the Raiders is reasonable. Dobbs’ recent struggles need to be viewed in light of his previous four outings, where he scored at least 26.9 fantasy points in three of them. Additionally, with the return of Justin Jefferson, the Vikings’ offensive dynamics could shift positively. The Raiders have been relatively tough on opposing quarterbacks this season. However, both Tua Tagovailoa and Patrick Mahomes managed to score at least 21.6 Fantasy points in their recent encounters. Dobbs, with his potential to utilize his legs and connect with Jefferson, aims for a better showing in this matchup. Sit ‘Em Justin Herbert (Los Angeles Chargers) vs. Denver While not a must-sit, Herbert’s recent performances highlight a boom-or-bust trend. Herbert has fewer than 14 fantasy points in two straight and four of his last seven games. Also, the Chargers’ offense lacks a downfield element, limiting Herbert’s fantasy upside. Additionally, facing a tough Broncos defense that has held top quarterbacks in check, including Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen, suggests exploring other QB options if available. Running Backs Start ‘Em James Cook (Buffalo Bills) at Kansas City Cook has seen less than 50% of the Bills’ offensive snaps in the last three weeks. But his efficiency when on the field is evident. Despite limited playing time, he secured a top-20 fantasy running back finish in each of those games. In that span, he’s averaging 14-plus touches per game and over 100 yards of offense. Although his touchdown count is modest this season, the Bills have a favorable running back matchup against the Chiefs, who have allowed the fifth-highest yards per carry at 4.6. Despite being the underdogs, the Bills’ recent close games have not hindered them from feeding Cook the football. Expect Cook to maintain his season-long trend of significant touches, high yards per touch, and a probable absence from the end zone, leading to a top-24 running back performance. A.J. Dillon (Green Bay Packers) at New York Giants Similar to Cook, Dillon has been a consistent force for the Packers in the last three weeks, securing a top-20 fantasy running back finish each time. With 14-plus touches per game and over 100 yards of offense in those contests, Dillon has maintained fantasy success despite a modest three touchdowns this season. This week, Green Bay faces the Giants, providing a favorable matchup for running backs, and Dillon is expected to continue receiving a significant workload. Despite the close nature of recent games, the Packers remain committed to feeding Dillon the football. Anticipate Dillon replicating his season-long performance with a considerable number of touches and another quality fantasy outing. Sit ‘Em Devin Singletary (Houston Texans) at New York Jets Singletary’s role has diminished, with only 80% of offensive snaps two weeks ago. And he faces competition for touches with the return of Dameon Pierce and Dare Ogunbowale. The Texans’ matchup ranks as the sixth-worst for running backs according to the strength of schedule tool, making Singletary a risky play for Week 14. D’Andre Swift (Philadelphia Eagles) at Dallas Swift’s recent performances, coupled with potential health concerns, make him a flex option at best against the Cowboys. Struggling to reach double-digit PPR points in three of his past four games, Swift faces a tough Cowboys defense that ranks third in fewest fantasy points allowed to running backs. Wide Receivers Start ‘Em Courtland Sutton (Denver Broncos) at Los Angeles Chargers Sutton stands as the primary receiving option for the Broncos, showcasing consistent production and a commendable receiving grade. With a touchdown in nine out of 12 games and over 50 receiving yards in the last four games, Sutton ranks 18th in fantasy points over the past four weeks and 21st over the season. Facing a Chargers defense that has surrendered the third-most fantasy points to wide receivers, Sutton, despite the underdog status of the Broncos, is poised for ample targets and a reasonable chance of scoring a touchdown. Jayden Reed (Green Bay Packers) at New York Giants If you can’t tell I love Green Bay this week. Similar to Sutton’s role with the Broncos, Reed assumes the position of the top receiving option for the Packers. With a touchdown in nine out of 12 games and over 50 receiving yards in the last four games, Reed ranks 18th in fantasy points over the past four weeks and 21st over the season. The matchup against the Giants provides an

Fantasy Football Injury Report

Fantasy Football Injury Report We have reached the final week of the regular season. Unfortunately, several key injuries took place last week that complicated not only this week but the remainder of the season. The FullTime Fantasy Football Injury Report catches you up on the latest news. Also, a great starting point for staying updated on the latest injuries is to bookmark our NFL Injury Report. Finally, FullTime Fantasy Members will get the latest NFL injury news and advice live each Sunday and Thursday in the FullTime Fantasy Discord. Click below to join us today! Now, let’s break down all the latest fantasy-relevant injury news in this week’s Fantasy Football Injury Report for Week 13. We will continually update this list. Week 14 Byes: Arizona, Washington Trevor Lawrence (QB) Jacksonville Jaguars – Monday Night Football resulted in a pair of costly injuries. The biggest occurred in the fourth quarter when Lawrence had his ankle twisted underneath him. There was a noticeable gasp from the crowd as Larence immediately tossed his helmet out of frustration. Fortunately, T-Law avoided ligament damage and was diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain. However. That could cause him to miss 1-2 games. Lawrence managers can add C.J. Beathard on the waiver wire as a temporary replacement. Christian Kirk (WR) Jacksonville Jaguars – Also, the Jags lost their star wideout to a core muscle injury that will require surgery. That means Kirk is unlikely to play again during the fantasy season. #Jaguars WR Christian Kirk suffered a core muscle injury on his catch last night and is expected to need surgery. Rehab for a core muscle issue is generally about eight weeks. If Kirk is ready at eight weeks, he could play in the Super Bowl if Jax makes it. A little earlier… — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) December 5, 2023 Tank Dell (WR) Houston Texans – A sad ending for one of the great stories of 2023. Dell was inexplicably blocking in a crowd and was rolled up on. He was rolled up on from behind, resulting in a fractured fibula. The surgery took place on Monday, ending Dell’s terrific and improbably rookie campaign. Rhamondre Stevenson (RB) New England Patriots – Another high-ankle sprain will likely cost Stevenson the remainder of the season. Even if Stevenson were to beat the usual 3-4 week recovery window for such an injury, there is little reason for the 2-10 Patriots to put him back on the field. Ezekiel Elliott becomes the top Week 14 waiver wire target as New England’s new feature back. Derrick Henry (RB) Tennessee Titans – Despite reports that Henry was in concussion protocol, Mike Vrabel indicated that Henry was not and is on track to play in Week 14. Darren Waller (TE) New York Giants – Even though he is now eligible to return from IR, don’t expect to see Darren Waller back this week to face the Packers. Daboll said RT Evan Neal (ankle) and DL Dexter Lawrence (hamstring) won’t practice today. Daboll said there’s hope that Lawrence will be back this week. Daboll said TE Darren Waller, who is eligible to be activated from IR is making progress, but leaning toward not being ready… — Dan Duggan (@DDuggan21) December 5, 2023 Christian Watson (WR) Green Bay Packers – We all knew what this was as soon as it happened. Yet another hamstring injury is likely to sideline Watson for at least one week. This is Watson’s fifth hamstring injury in less than three years. Obviously, a huge concern for both the remainder of 2023 and Watson’s long-term value in dynasty formats. Brian Robinson (RB) Washington Commanders – Another hamstring injury forced Robinson from Washington’s Week 13 loss. Fortunately, Washington has Week 14 off. That gives Robinson an extra week to recover. We will update his status in the FullTime Fantasy Discord as Week 15 approaches. Kenny Pickett (QB) Pittsburgh Steelers – Pickett injured his ankle on a goal-line run and has already had surgery. However, the team seems optimistic that he will return in 2-3 weeks. Until he does, it’s Mitchell Trubisky time in Pittsburgh. Derek Carr (QB) New Orleans Saints – Carr is dealing with a shoulder injury. However, it is not expected to be a long-term ailment. Also, Carr is in the NFL’s concussion protocol for the second time in a month. That is a bigger concern at the moment. We will keep an eye on his status throughout the week. But, Carr managers can add Jameis Winston as insurance. Amari Cooper (WR) Cleveland Browns – Cooper was forced from Cleveland’s Week 13 loss with a concussion. He will not be able to return to action until he clears the protocol. The normal recovery time for a head injury is 1-2 weeks. D’Andre Swift (RB) Philadelphia Eagles – Swift took a big hit late in Philadelphia’s loss. He headed to the locker room immediately and did not return. If Swift misses time, Kenneth Gainwell would step in as the starter. Demario Douglas (WR) New England Patriots – Douglas missed last week with a concussion and has still not practiced. He must clear the league’s concussion protocol before he can play. Finally, thanks for reading the Fantasy Football Injury Report.

Fantasy Football Injury Report

Fantasy Football Injury Report We have reached the penultimate week of the regular season. Whether you are jockeying for playoff position or still fighting to qualify, securing a late-season win is crucial. Staying up-to-date on the Fantasy Football Injury Report is a great way to increase your odds of coming out on top in Week 13. Also, a great starting point for staying updated on the latest injuries is to bookmark our NFL Injury Report. Finally, FullTime Fantasy Members will get the latest NFL injury news and advice live each Sunday and Thursday in the FullTime Fantasy Discord. Click below to join us today! Now, let’s break down all the latest fantasy-relevant injury news in this week’s Fantasy Football Injury Report for Week 13. We will continually update this list. Week 13 Byes: Baltimore, Buffalo, Chicago, Las Vegas, Minnesota, New York Giants Jonathan Taylor (RB) Indianapolis Colts – Despite finishing the game, Colts’ RB Jonathan Taylor injured his thumb and it appears to be a serious ailment. To have the local beat writers saying that Taylor could wind up on IR sounds very disconcerting. If Zack Moss happens to be available on your waiver wire, he would become the unquestioned top priority to add ahead of Week 13. UPDATE: Unfortunately, it looks like Taylor will need surgery and miss a minimum of two games. Moss now becomes a bigger priority, worth most of your remaining FAAB if you are fighting for a playoff spot. #Colts owner Jim Irsay to @TheAthletic on Jonathan Taylor’s surgery: “There’s just not a lot of confidence in controlling (the ball) and the hand strength at this point, so the decision has been made to move forward in that direction.” https://t.co/PfPdSLoour — James Boyd (@RomeovilleKid) November 28, 2023 Kenneth Walker (RB) Seattle Seahawks – An oblique injury kept Walker out of Thursday’s loss. Also, Walker sat out practice on Monday, so his Week 13 status is in jeopardy. Seattle travels to Dallas to take on Dallas on Thursday Night Football. At this point, I would call Walker doubtful and estimate he has a 25% chance of suiting up. Justin Jefferson (WR) Minnesota Vikings – The Vikings have activated Jefferson from IR. Subsequently, Jefferson will be back on the field in Vegas when Minnesota returns to action following this week’s bye. Chris Olave (WR) New Orleans Saints – The Saints are severely depleted at wide receiver. Olave was having a huge outing on Sunday before leaving the game. He will have to clear the league’s concussion protocol before he can return. Also, Rashid Shaheed injured his quad in the same game and is considered unlikely to play in Week 13. We will update their Week 13 availability as news breaks. But, prepare for the Saints to give Lynn Bowden, A.T. Perry, Juwan Johnson, and Taysom Hill more targets if Olave and Shaheed are out. De’Von Achane (RB) Miami Dolphins – Head coach Mike McDaniel implied that Achane was held out of Week 12 for precautionary reasons. This is good news after Achane’s abbreviated return from IR in Week 11. Still, after that, it’s hard to have a lot of confidence until we see it on the field. If Achane is a full participant in practice this week we will re-address his Week 13 fantasy football rankings. Tee Higgins (WR) Cincinnati Bengals – Higgins has missed three games with a hamstring injury. However, there is a good chance that he will return next Monday in Jacksonville. Amari Cooper (WR) Cleveland Browns – Cooper headed to the locker room after taking a hard shot to the ribs during the Browns’ Week 12 loss. Subsequently, he has yet to practice ahead of Week 13. We will have more updates in the FullTime Fantasy Discord as they become available. If Cooper sits, Elijah Moore would become a viable WR3. Dorian Thompson-Robinson (QB) Cleveland Browns – DTR is in the NFL’s concussion protocol after taking a vicious shot in Cleveland’s Week 13 loss. Subsequently, and combined with P.J. Walker’s 58.5 QB Rating out of relief, Joe Flacco will take first-team practice reps this week and has a legitimate shot at starting in Los Angeles. Demario Douglas (WR) New England Patriots – Another player dealing with a concussion, Douglas has been New England’s top wideout over the past month. We will monitor his progress through the protocol throughout the week. Quentin Johnston (WR) Los Angeles Chargers – Johnston exited Week 12 with a rib injury. However, X-rays came back negative. Johnston was cleared to return from that injury on Sunday. However, Brandon Staley elected to keep the first-rounder sidelined. Baker Mayfield (QB) Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Kyle Trask replaced Mayfield under center for a series as Mayfield was dealing with an ankle injury. However, he was able to return to action and finish the game. It looks like a non-factor. Blake Grupe (PK) New Orleans Saints – The Saints are working out veteran kickers after learning that Grupe is dealing with a groin injury. If New Orleans signs a replacement to the practice squad, that would indicate there is real concern about Grupe’s Week 13 availability. Finally, thanks for reading the Fantasy Football Injury Report.
