Fantasy Football Injury Updates
Check out the latest NFL injury news and notes around fantasy football.
Diontae Johnson has mild groin strain
Panthers coach Dave Canales said WR Diontae Johnson has a mild groin strain.
Fantasy Impact
The injury held Johnson out of practice on Wednesday. It does not appear to be anything too serious.
Ari Koslow
Christian Kirk (calf) out this week
Jaguars WR Christian Kirk is being held out this week with a mild calf injury, per head coach Doug Pederson.
Fantasy Impact
The move appears to be precautionary and he will likely undergo further evaluation prior to returning to practice next week. With the new that Trevor Lawrence not playing in Saturday’s preseason game, Kirk was unlikely to suit up anyway.
Jesse Garcia
Jordan Addison (ankle) avoids serious injury
Jordan Addison‘s ankle injury is not considered serious but will keep him sidelined at practice on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Addison suffered a scary injury and had to be carted out of Minnesota’s practice on Wednesday, but according to HC Kevin McConnell, it’s not expected to be a serious issue. The team is holding him out of practice on Thursday as a precaution, but if this is nothing more than a day-to-day issue, then it probably won’t have much of an impact on his Week 1 availability.
