Fantasy Football Injury Updates

DeeJay Dallas (ankle) considered long shot to play in Week 14

DeeJay Dallas is considered a long shot to play in Week 14’s contest against Carolina.

Fantasy Impact

Dallas was considered a sneaky flex play should Kenneth Walker III be ruled out, but there is little optimism that he will suit up. Should Dallas and Walker be ruled out, the Seattle backfield will belong to Travis Homer and Tony Jones, though both would be extremely risky plays in fantasy leagues.

 

Diontae Johnson (hip) will play in Week 14

Diontae Johnson will play on Sunday against the Ravens.

Fantasy Impact

Johnson logged two limited practices with a missed practice in-between this week before being listed as questionable. He will continue to be high floor, low upside WR3 type of play for fantasy managers. He has yet to score a touchdown this season.

 

Damien Harris (thigh) doubtful for Week 14

Damien Harris is listed as doubtful for Week 14’s game vs the Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact

Harris did not practice all week, so it seems like a long shot that he will suit up for Week 14. The Patriots play on Monday, making it even more difficult to deploy Harris in starting lineups with this much uncertainty. Rhamondre Stevenson will be the focal point of the rushing attack, with Pierre Storng Jr. potentially seeing some work as well.

 

DK Metcalf (hip) will have workload watched in Week 14

DK Metcalf is expected to play in Seattle’s Week 14 matchup against Carolina, though the Seahawks will watch his workload coming off the hip injury.

Fantasy Impact

Fantasy managers should feel confident starting Metcalf even with the workload being scrutinized. Against the 20th-ranked Panthers defense, chances are good he will still produce solid numbers in Week 14.
