Week 4 has arrived! Unfortunately, the injury watch for fantasy managers is also here. Players who appear on the Friday injury report and haven’t practiced much during the week can often lead to trepidation for managers trying to make lineup decisions and/or waiver claims. Don’t fret, though – FantasyPros is here to provide you with all of the latest news and updates on the players who are questionable heading into the weekend.
Jimmy Garoppolo suffered a concussion in Week 3, which has put his status in question for Week 4. The Raiders have a great matchup against the Chargers’ 27th-ranked pass defense. Will Jimmy Garoppolo play in Week 4? Here is what we know.

Jimmy Garoppolo (concussion) officially questionable for Week 4
Jimmy Garoppolo (concussion) is officially questionable to play in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Fantasy Impact
Garoppolo is still in the NFL’s concussion protocols, but he is going to try to clear them before the game and is officially listed as questionable to play. Reports have been that it seems more likely than not that he doesn’t play, but that’s far from a guarantee, and he has enough time to get cleared to play. If he’s out, Brian Hoyer will likely get the start in his absence, which is a super tough blow for every fantasy asset on the Raiders’ offense.
- Jimmy Garoppolo remains in concussion protocol
- Jimmy Garoppolo (concussion) at practice Thursday
- Jimmy Garoppolo (concussion) doesn’t practice Wednesday
- Jimmy Garoppolo (concussion) optimistic for Week 4
What the Experts Are Saying
TBD. Still has a chance to play, but ~2/3 of players would not clear in time for Week 4. Very likely returning Week 5 with low performance impact.
