Fantasy Football Injury News

Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.

A.J. Brown (knee) misses practice Thursday
A.J. Brown was sidelined from practice on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Brown left the game early last week against the Giants. It is too early in the week to know if he’ll be able to play on Monday, but his status will be worth monitoring at practice on Friday and Saturday.

T.J. Watt (MCL sprain) ruled out for Wild Card round
Steelers’ coach Mike Tomlin ruled out TJ Watt for Pittsburgh’s Wild Card matchup against the Bills.

Fantasy Impact

Watt suffered the injury in last week’s game against the Ravens. It’ll be a big loss for the Steelers defense in a game where they were already going to be a huge underdog against Josh Allen and Buffalo.

Jalen Hurts (finger) has X-Rays return negative
Jalen Hurts underwent X-rays that showed no fracture in the middle finger on his throwing hand that he dislocated Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Hurts is reportedly taking it day-by-day with the Eagles taking on the Buccaneers on Monday. Barring any late setbacks, Hurts should be on the field for that game as the Eagles look to find some momentum back after finishing the regular season on a poor note.
