If you’ve made it through the barrage of injuries to this point, congrats. You didn’t think they’d stop now though, did you? In fact, there are a lot of fantasy owners out there who have made their finals by riding Todd Gurley the entire season. Now, today, he plays an afternoon game, and is ruled as a true game-time decision. There will be a lot of questions about Gurley and what to do with him today, but if you don’t have an afternoon replacement on your bench, you’re better off starting someone who’s guaranteed touches in the early set of games. Even when it comes down to Gurley’s backup, there’s confusion on whether C.J. Anderson or John Kelly would receive more work. It’s a messy situation for Championship Sunday, that’s for sure. Here’s some other injuries you should know about.
