Fantasy Football Injury Updates

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

Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) quiet in Week 6 loss
Travis Etienne Jr. tallied negative one rushing yards on three carries in the Jaguars 35-16 loss to the Bears. He caught 0-of-1 targets in the loss.

Fantasy Impact

Etienne was officially listed as questionable to return due to a hamstring injury. His status will be worth monitoring ahead of a Week 7 matchup with the Patriots.

Jesse Garcia

Jerome Ford (hamstring) ruled out
The Browns have ruled out RB Jerome Ford for the remainder of the game due to a hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact

Ford will end his day with 11 rushing yards on two attempts. His hamstring injury will be worth monitoring heading into Week 7.

Jesse Garcia

Nick Chubb (knee) expected to make return Week 7
Cleveland Browns RB Nick Chubb, who has been sidelined since early last season with a knee ligament injury, is expected to make his season debut in Week 7 versus the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Impact

Chubb played in just two games in 2023, rushing for 170 yards on 28 carries (6.1 yards per attempt) before suffering a season-ending injury in Week 2. The veteran rusher underwent surgery to repair his MCL and meniscus and had a subsequent surgery on his ACL. Multi-ligament injuries are often of the highest concern, so it should not be a surprise if Chubb is not back in form in 2024. However, the four-time Pro Bowler and one-time All-Pro is one of the best RBs in the NFL when healthy and is seventh all-time in career yards-per-carry average (third among non-QBs). Chubb’s return will likely be a hit for RB Jerome Ford‘s value, especially on goal-line touches (Chubb has 48 career touchdown runs in six seasons).
