Fantasy Football Injury Updates

Check out the latest NFL injury news and notes around fantasy football.

Deshaun Watson may not play in preseason games
Deshaun Watson may not play in Cleveland’s preseason games this year.

Fantasy Impact

Cleveland may choose to forgo playing Watson in any of their preseason games this year. It’s unclear if it has anything to do with the injury that he suffered last year or if the team simply doesn’t think he needs the extra reps. Unless this is because of health concerns, it shouldn’t affect his fantasy value whatsoever.
