Fantasy Football Injury Updates
Check out the latest NFL injury news and notes around fantasy football.
Hunter Henry (foot) practices in full Wednesday
Hunter Henry (foot) was a full participant at practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
It was reported last week that Henry is unlikely to play in Week 1, but it appears he might actually have a good shot at suiting up. He was able to log a full practice session on Wednesday, and if he can keep that up, he should be on track to play against the Bengals. If active, he isn’t worth starting in a matchup where the Patriots aren’t expected to score many points.

DeAndre Hopkins (knee) officially limited Wednesday
DeAndre Hopkins (knee) was officially limited at Tennessee’s practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Hopkins was able to practice on Wednesday, but he was still limited because of the knee injury that he suffered earlier this offseason. Still, it appears that he is on the right track to play in Week 1, which would be good for the fantasy value of Will Levis but would hurt the workload of Calvin Ridley a bit.

Keenan Allen (heel) limited at practice Wednesday
Keenan Allen (heel) was limited at Chicago’s practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Allen is dealing with a new heel issue that left him limited at practice on Wednesday. The exact severity of it is unknown at this point, but we should learn more about his Week 1 status in the coming days. If he is limited or unable to play against the Titans on Sunday, first-round rookie Rome Odunze would benefit tremendously and could possibly be worthy of flex consideration in some leagues.
