Fantasy Football Injury News

Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.

Logan Thomas (calf) being treated with ‘caution’ in return

Washington Commanders head coach Ron Rivera said the team is “maybe … being overly cautious” with veteran TE Logan Thomas, who hasn’t practiced in a week due to a calf strain.

Fantasy Impact

Thomas is dealing with a calf strain, much like the one QB Joe Burrow suffered, so his timeline for recovery is a couple of weeks. Part of the abundance in caution for Thomas is his age, as the veteran TE is already 32 and has been no stranger to injury the last few years. Thomas had 323 yards in 14 games in 2022, played 68% of the team’s snaps last season – the lowest of his career in Washington – and is multiple years removed from his PPR TE3 finish in 2020. It’s hard to have optimism in Thomas in 2023, especially with rumblings about TE Cole Turner – who led the team in targets in preseason Week 1 – and the recent signing of Kaden Smith.

Miles Sanders continues to deal with groin injury

Miles Sanders is continuing to deal with a groin injury, per Panthers’ head coach Frank Reich.

Fantasy Impact

Sanders tweaked his groin in practice last Wednesday and it is continuing to bother him. Sanders also missed the team’s first preseason game against the Jets. He currently ranks as the RB17 in ECR, but will need to get healthy prior to the start of the regular season to begin building chemistry with rookie QB Bryce Young.

Mike Gesicki exits Monday’s practice early

Mike Gesicki exited Monday’s practice with an apparent injury.

Fantasy Impact

Gesicki was helped off the practice field Monday after being injured in a one-on-one tackle drill. Based on practice reports, it appears that he may have injured his shoulder while taking the brunt of the tackle. The Patriots should release information on the severity of his injury soon.

J.K. Dobbins activated from PUP list Monday

The Ravens activated RB J.K. Dobbins off the PUP list Monday.

Fantasy Impact

Dobbins will now be eligible to practice for the first time during training camp. Dobbins underwent another surgery on his knee last season and was limited to just eight games in 2022. The 24-year-old currently ranks as the RB23 in ECR, according to FantasyPros. Fantasy managers should expect Dobbins to continue to split time with Gus Edwards in 2023.
