Fantasy Football Injury News
Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.
Bryce Young (ankle) cleared, will play in Week 4
Panthers QB Bryce Young (ankle) has been cleared and will play Sunday against Minnesota.
Fantasy Impact
Young has practiced in full this week and will return to action after missing one game. Even with Young’s return, fantasy managers should be cautious about returning him to their starting lineups. Young will need to play better before becoming a reliable option weekly.
Jesse Garcia
Deshaun Watson (shoulder) listed as questionable for Week 4
Deshaun Watson has been listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Ravens.
Fantasy Impact
Watson did not throw on Wednesday before doing some light throwing on Thursday. There were mixed reports regarding what he did on Friday, but he appeared to throw a pass or two before meeting with a trainer. He will likely be a game-time decision for Sunday.
Ari Koslow
Cooper Kupp (hamstring) set to begin practicing next week
Rams WR Cooper Kupp is set to return to practice next week, which will open the 21-day windows for the Rams to activate him for IR.
Fantasy Impact
There have been reports that Kupp may not be ready to play in Week 5, but he will begin to at least practice next week as the team looks to get him up to game speed. Fantasy managers should expect him to likely miss Week 5, but is nearing a return, barring any setbacks.
Jesse Garcia
Derek Carr (shoulder) practicing Friday; questionable for Week 4
Derek Carr (shoulder) is participating at New Orleans’ practice on Friday and is officially questionable for Week 4 against the Buccaneers.
Fantasy Impact
Carr hasn’t been able to practice so far this week while nursing a shoulder injury that he suffered in Week 3, but he returned on Friday and was able to practice. He’s officially questionable for Week 4, and the team will evaluate him on Saturday to determine if he will be well enough to play on Sunday. If he isn’t, Jameis Winston will be the next man up for the Saints in Week 4.
