Fantasy Football Injury Updates
Check out the latest NFL injury news and notes around fantasy football.
Jaylen Warren (knee) non-participant Wednesday
Jaylen Warren (knee) was a non-participant at Pittsburgh’s practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Warren wasn’t able to practice on Wednesday because of a knee injury. This shouldn’t come as much of a surprise, as the team is taking his recovery week-to-week for the time being. He looks like a long shot to play in Week 4, which would leave Najee Harris as the clear-cut RB1 for the Steelers.

Austin Ekeler (concussion) ruled out for Week 4
Austin Ekeler (concussion) has been ruled out for Washington’s matchup against the Cardinals in Week 4.
Fantasy Impact
Ekeler suffered a concussion in Week 3’s win over the Bengals and has already been ruled out for Week 4. That’s a sign that it may be a more serious concussion, as the team wouldn’t rule him out this early if he had any chance at all to play. Fantasy managers should expect Brian Robinson Jr. to see the bulk of the work in Washington’s backfield on Sunday.

Jordan Love (knee) officially limited Wednesday
Jordan Love (knee) was officially limited at Green Bay’s practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Love was able to practice in a limited fashion on Wednesday. The team is trying to slowly build him up to a return to play, and they want to be as cautious as they can in that process. If he plays in Week 4, fantasy managers should consider starting someone like Jayden Reed, who will see a significant uptick in value if the star QB is back on the field for Week 4.
