Fantasy Football Injury Updates
Check out the latest NFL injury news and notes around fantasy football.
Malik Nabers clears concussion protocol
Malik Nabers has officially cleared the NFL’s concussion protocol and will play in Week 7.
Fantasy Impact
The rookie has been sidelined for multiple weeks because of a concussion, but he officially cleared the NFL’s concussion protocol on Thursday and will play in Week 7’s game against the Eagles. He has been one of the best wideouts in fantasy when healthy so far this season and should continue to be dominant moving forward.

Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) limited again Thursday
Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) was limited at practice again on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Etienne was limited for the second time this week on Thursday. He suffered a hamstring injury in Sunday’s loss to the Bears, and his status for Week 7 is up in the air right now. If he is unavailable to play, Tank Bigsby will see the bulk of the work for the Jaguars and could be a good flex option in a matchup against the Patriots.

Brian Robinson Jr. (knee) limited at practice Thursday
Brian Robinson Jr. (knee) was a limited participant at practice on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Robinson is still dealing with a knee injury and was a limited participant for the second-straight day on Thursday. It appears that he’s trending the right way for Sunday’s game, however, and fantasy managers should keep a close eye on what his official injury designation ends up being following Friday’s practice.
