Fantasy Football Injury Updates
Rashod Bateman (undisclosed) misses practice Tuesday
Rashod Bateman did not participate in practice Tuesday for an undisclosed reason.
Fantasy Impact
Bateman was not listed on the injury report Monday, but his status for Thursday is definitely in doubt. Fantasy managers will want to wait on his official designation tomorrow, but should have a backup plan in the event Bateman does not suit up against Tampa Bay Thursday.
Breece Hall is placed on injured reserve
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, RB Breece Hall is being placed on injured reserve by the New York Jets.
Fantasy Impact
Hall’s rookie season officially comes to a close after he was confirmed to have torn his ACL in Week 7. Hall was on his way to emerging as a rookie, rushing for 463 yards and four touchdowns and playing over 50% of the Jets’ snaps after Week 3. The Jets will now turn toward RB Michael Carter and the newly acquired James Robinson for ground production.
Mark Andrews (ankle) does not practice Tuesday
Mark Andrews (ankle) did not practice for the Ravens Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Andrews was held without a catch on two targets in Week 7. With a short turnaround for the Ravens, Andrews’ status for Thursday is unclear right now. After being listed as questionable with a knee injury last week, Andrews may not have enough recovery time to be the usual fantasy superstar that we are used to seeing Thursday against Tampa Bay.
