Fantasy Football Injury Report & Predictions
Game status: TBD. He is likely close to full strength, but data leans towards him sitting out Week 10 (60% chance) due to DNP-DNP-LP practice progression. Each week of rest reduces his re-injury risk, which currently stands at ~15%.
Status: TBD. Slightly favored to play. Hill has a history of suiting up despite missed practices, but last-minute DNP raises the risk of him sitting out. Monitor closely for updates.
Expected to play with high per-touch efficiency. However, coaches may manage his workload, especially in non-competitive game scripts. Elevated re-injury risk persists throughout the season.
Limited practice (LP) all three days this week. Typically, this pattern indicates a likely return by Week 11.
Out for an estimated 6+ weeks. Some cases, like his, result in surgery, which would end his season. A full recovery by 2025 is expected, but returning early could carry a significant re-injury risk.
Data supports his return to action, but with a projected ~15% dip in production due to the injury.
Expected to play. His limited Week 9 output (2 receptions, 22 yards) likely stemmed from lingering injury effects. Production should improve gradually through Week 12.
Likely sidelined for Week 10 and Week 11.
Set to play, though data indicates a potential 15-20% hit to production. Lamb’s skillset gives him strong outlier potential, but there’s a heightened risk of re-injury if he takes a fall on his shoulder.
Status: TBD. I’m leaning towards playing. It’s uncommon to log limited practice (LP) three times over two consecutive weeks without eventually playing.
Status: TBD, with a 60% chance of playing, according to projections. Skill position players often experience a decrease in touches following a rib-oblique injury.
Likely to play, with no projected dip in production.
Expected to play without a projected dip in stats, though there’s a slight increase in re-injury risk due to the nature of hamstring strains.
Projections lean towards a Week 11 return. He carries a high re-injury risk due to two in-season soft-tissue injuries.
Reports indicate a target return for Week 12. Strong production is projected upon his return, but there is a notable re-injury risk given his age (30+) and the nature of the hamstring injury.
Despite being a late addition to the injury report, playing suggests low severity. A mild production dip is expected unless re-aggravation occurs.
Video analysis and practice progression point to a mild high ankle sprain. The average recovery for this type is two weeks. I am leaning towards a Week 11-12 return, with Week 12 being more likely.
