Fantasy Football Injury Updates

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

Jordan Addison (ankle) hopeful to play in Week 2
Jordan Addison (ankle) is experiencing significant soreness in his injured ankle according to head coach Kevin O’Connell.

Fantasy Impact

Addison was able to heal quickly during training camp after suffering a similar ankle injury for the Vikings. The head coach stated the team will take a cautious approach with the talented wideout’s practice participation in hopes that Addison will be cleared to play in Week 2. Fantasy managers will need to monitor the pass-catcher’s status for Week 2 as the week progresses.

Puka Nacua (knee) will go on IR
Rams WR Puka Nacua will be placed on injured reserve with a sprained PCL, per head coach Sean McVay.

Fantasy Impact

Nacua will now miss at least four games, depending on the severity of the injury and how quickly he can return to practice in the future. This will likely open up more targets for Demarcus Washington and Tyler Johnson moving forward.

Rome Odunze to undergo MRI on his knee
Rome Odunze is set to undergo an MRI on his knee on Monday.

Fantasy Impact

Odunze made his NFL debut against the Titans on Sunday, but he must’ve picked up a knee injury at some point throughout the contest. He is set to undergo an MRI on Monday to diagnose what exactly that injury is and what his possible timeline for recovery will look like. It remains to be seen if the rookie will miss time, but if he does, that’s bad news for Caleb Williams but could benefit the target share for DJ Moore and Keenan Allen season-long.
