The latest: Jaguars Travis Etienne Jr. Due to a foot injury, I was unable to attend Sunday’s Ravens game.
What does it mean in fantasy? After only two rushed attempts in the first period, Etienne quit the game. Fantasy managers became concerned when Etienne, who suffered a Lisfranc fracture in his first season, missed the game. He returned to the sidelines wearing his pads intact after going to locker room. He did not use crutches or a walking boot in the locker rooms after the game. On Monday, Etienne will have more information. JaMychal hasty was named the Jaguars’ primary running back after Etienne quit the game. Darryl Henderson Jr., who was acquired from the Rams via waivers last week was inactive. In the event Etienne does not make it in time, both runningbacks will be waive wire targets for Week 13.
Going deeper: Etienne is the leading running back with 27 first down rushes. He also has the third most rushing yards since Week 6. Before the Jaguars’ bye week he had averaged 18.7 fantasy-points per game in Weeks 6-10.
The latest: Packers QB Aaron Rodgers A rib injury forced me to miss Sunday’s match against the Eagles.
What does it mean in fantasy? After Rodgers was sacked during the third quarter, Rodgers sustained a rib injury. The Eagles’ pass rush line, which ranks first in pass-rush win rate, allowed Rodgers to reach the quarterback thanks to the Packers’ offensive. Rodgers had one series of play after the hit. However, he stated that he was unable breathe and had difficulty rotating his core during throwing. This forced him to quit the game and be replaced with Jordan LoveHe completed six of nine passes, gaining 113 yards and scoring a touchdown. Rodgers’ fractured thumb has also affected Rodgers’ completion rate. The Packers are currently at 4-8. Fantasy managers should be monitoring Rodgers’ situation to determine if Jordan Love is available against the Bears in Week 13.
Going deeper: Rodgers’s nine interceptions in this season are his most since 2015, when he had eight.
The latest: 49ers RB Elijah Mitchell He is believed to have sustained a sprain MCL in his left leg Sunday against the Saints.
What does it mean in fantasy? Mitchell ran for 35 yards on seven attempts. He was only two weeks away from his MCL injury to the right knee. Mitchell left the game in quarter three. Mitchell will be absent for a little while. Jordan Mason As a backup, took over the duties and divided snaps with Christian McCaffrey. Shanahan expressed confidence and support for Mason and the rookie Tyrion Davis-PriceMitchell’s pregame inactive Mitchell was replaced by Corey Davis-Price and Mason. Davis-Price, Mason and McCaffrey will serve as change-of-pacebacks. McCaffrey will take the lead in touches.
The latest: Tom Pelissero, of the NFL Network, reported that Bears WR Darnell Mooney A possible season-ending ankle injury that he sustained against the Jets Sunday.
What does it mean in fantasy? Mooney will undergo another evaluation before making any final decisions. It appears that Mooney has torn ligaments around his ankle. Mooney’s statistical production had been trending upwards before the injury, scoring 10 fantasy points or more in three of his four previous games. Chase Claypool Mooney’s absence could have more impact — Mooney led all Bears wide receivers Sunday with five targets. However, he did leave the game after suffering an apparent leg injury.
The latest: Dolphins Jeff Wilson Jr. During Sunday’s match against the Texans, he injured his lower leg.
What does it mean in fantasy? Wilson went into the locker room on the second drive of the second period. He played 77.7% snaps in the first half. Wilson’s injury didn’t prevent him from playing the entire game. The Dolphins coaching staff did no mention it afterwards. Wilson’s 12.2 fantasy point total was disappointing considering the favorable matchup. Raheem Mostert‘s absence. Wilson can be considered a flex player against the 49ers in Week 13. Mostert is expected to return.
Going deeper: Wilson has been acquired by the Dolphins and has now scored 12 fantasy points or more, as well as recorded 12 or greater touches in three consecutive games.
The latest: Jets RB Michael Carter An ankle injury caused by playing against the Bears led to the player leaving Sunday’s game.
What does it mean in fantasy? Robert Saleh, head coach, confirmed Carter suffered a sprain in the aftermath of the game but did no know the severity. Fantasy managers hope that he did not get the high ankle strain. Zonovan Knight Carter was injured so Carter was out of the game. Carter rushed for 69 yard on 14 attempts. The undrafted rookie was the one who revived New York’s running game against Bears. Knight also had 34 receiving yards from three receptions. Ty Johnson He scored a touchdown spelling Knight, and could also play a bigger role out of the backfield as a receiver. Johnson played 15 snaps to Knight’s thirty. Both the Vikings and Jets are intriguing pickups for Week 13. Knight James RobinsonSaleh’s search of an offense spark led to’s place at the running back room.
Going deeper: Knight’s 69 rush yards is the most for a Jet since Matt Snell’s 1964 NFL debut.
The latest: Sean McVay, Rams head coach, stated to reporters that WR Allen Robinson II Needs foot surgery, and will miss the remainder of the season.
What does it mean in fantasy? Rams are currently without their best player, but injuries continue to mount. Matthew Stafford, Cooper Kupp Key members of their offensive team. A CT scan revealed that he had suffered from a sore right foot prior to Sunday’s matchup. Robinson has rushed 33 times for 339 yards and three touchdowns since signing a $36.5 million, three-year contract with the Rams. He averages 5.2 targets per game and 8.5 fantasy point. His empty targets will flow to Van Jefferson And Ben Skowronek. Managers in fantasy leagues should ask themselves if they want to be exposed to a Rams offensive that ranks 31st for total yards per match and 29th for points per match.
Going deeper: The Rams are only Super Bowl team to use a different five-man starting offensive line combination for each of its 11 first games. Los Angeles’ offensive lines rank 27th in run block wins rate and 23rd pass block win ratio.
The latest: WR Odell Beckham Jr. was removed from a flight at Miami International Airport Sunday
What does it mean in fantasy? According to the Miami-Dade Police Department, Beckham Jr. wasn’t able to leave the plane and was “in and out” of consciousness. Daniel Davillier was the attorney for the free agent wide receiver. He claimed that the incident occurred because of an “overzealous” flight attendant. Beckham’s recovery from the ACL injury may be delayed as more information is revealed. Giants and Cowboys are among the interested teams. It is possible that he will need weeks of practice before returning to his full speed and learning the new playbook before making his 2022 debut. Fantasy managers need to have realistic expectations for Beckham’s return, possibly as a flex option in deeper formats than the potential WR1 that we all remember from his early days.
