Fantasy Football Injury News

Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.

Amon-Ra St. Brown (toe) back at practice Thursday

Amon-Ra St. Brown (toe) is back at practice for Detroit on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

A toe injury of some kind left St. Brown sidelined at Detroit’s practice on Wednesday, but now he’s back and participating on Thursday. It remains to be seen if he will be limited or not, but either way, this is a step in the right direction for his availability for Sunday. There’s still a chance that he doesn’t play, but if he’s active, he’ll be a must-start fantasy option against the Falcons.

Aaron Jones (hamstring) back at practice Thursday

Aaron Jones (hamstring) is back at practice for the Packers on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Jones hasn’t practiced or played since pulling his hamstring in Week 1, but now he’s back and participating at practice. He will probably be limited, as the team will look to take it slow and careful with his return. He seems to be trending towards playing on Sunday, which will revert AJ Dillon to his backup role in Week 3 and beyond.

Evan Hull (knee) to miss remainder of the season

Evan Hull has been diagnosed with a torn meniscus and will miss the remainder of the season.

Fantasy Impact

Hull was placed on IR last week after suffering a serious knee injury, but the initial expectation was that he would be able to return sometime this season. Now, he’s being diagnosed with a torn meniscus that will force him to miss the rest of the season. The rookie didn’t show much in his limited time, and his absence could lead to Trey Sermon getting some work on the active roster moving forward.

DK Metcalf (ribs) doesn’t practice Thursday

DK Metcalf (ribs) did not practice for the Seahawks on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

A big hit in Week 2 left Metcalf with an injury to his ribs that he’s currently nursing. He didn’t practice again on Thursday, but this just seems to be a precautionary measure by the team. He’s trending towards playing on Sunday, and if he’s active, he will be a solid starting option against a bad Panthers defense.
