Fantasy Football Injury Updates

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

Jonathan Taylor (ankle) ‘optimistic’ on return to practice this week
Colts coach Shane Steichen says he’s “very optimistic” that Jonathan Taylor will return to practice this week.

Fantasy Impact

Taylor missed his second straight game this past week with Tyler Goodson and Trey Sermon once again leading the way. It would be huge for the Colts offense to get Taylor back, especially with the current struggles of the passing game.

Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) designated to return from IR
The Dolphins designated Tua Tagovailoa to return from injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact

Tagovailoa was expected to return to practice this week. He still needs to pass through concussion protocol, but as of now he is on track to return in Week 8 against the Cardinals.

JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) ruled out for Week 8
JuJu Smith-Schuster has been ruled out for the Chiefs Week 8 game against the Raiders.

Fantasy Impact

Smith-Schuster got hurt early in Sunday’s win over the 49ers. He’ll be sidelined for at least one game. Mecole Hardman and Skyy Moore should both see more snaps as a result, but they’re still both tough to rely on outside of super deep fantasy leagues.
