Fantasy Football Injury News

Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.

Logan Thomas (concussion) practicing in limited fashion

Washington Commanders TE Logan Thomas (concussion) practiced in a limited capacity on Thursday, his second in a row to start the week.

Fantasy Impact

Thomas suffered a concussion on an unnecessary hit in Week 2 that forced him to miss the Commanders’ game in Week 3. However, he seems back on track to play in Week 4. Though he only saw six catches in two games to start the year, the Commanders have been active in their use of tight ends, especially in the red zone. Thomas, who is 6’6″, 250, will be of help in those close areas.

Anthony Richardson (concussion) practices in full Thursday

Colts QB Anthony Richardson (concussion) was a full participant in practice Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

This was the second consecutive full practice for Richardson. The rookie quarterback appears ready to make his return after a one game absence. Fantasy managers should expect Richardson to make the start Sunday against the Rams.

Austin Ekeler (ankle) spotted stretching with the team Thursday

Chargers RB Austin Ekeler (ankle) was spotted stretching with the team ahead of Thursday’s practice.

Fantasy Impact

Ekeler was limited in Wednesday’s practice, but marked a step in the right direction after missing multiple weeks with an ankle injury. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his situation heading into Sunday. Joshua Kelley would also likely be in line for a reduced workload should Ekeler return.

Treylon Burks (knee) does not practice Thursday

Titans WR Treylon Burks (knee) did not participate in Thursday’s practice.

Fantasy Impact

Burks is trending in the wrong direction after logging a limited practice session Wednesday. It appears that his status for Week 4 is in doubt if he cannot log additional practice time Friday. Fantasy managers should expect Nick-Westbrook-Ikhine and Chigoziem Okonkwo to see additional targets if Burks does not suit up against Cincinnati.
