Fantasy Football Injury News

Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.

Jimmy Garoppolo (concussion) will practice Thursday

Jimmy Garoppolo is in the final stages of the concussion protocol and will practice on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

The Raiders were without Garoppolo last week while he goes through the NFL’s concussion protocol, but now HC Josh McDaniels is telling reporters that he’s in the final stages. He should get cleared to play soon, and he will be practicing in some capacity on Thursday. It looks like he will be able to play on Monday, which is great news for Davante Adams (shoulder) and Jakobi Meyers in a matchup against the Packers.

Saquon Barkley (ankle) to be limited Thursday

Saquon Barkley (ankle) will be limited at New York’s practice on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Barkley is still working on coming back from a high-ankle sprain that he suffered earlier in the season. He’s set to be limited in yet another practice, and it’s unclear which way he’s trending for Sunday’s game. If he’s active, he will be a must-start fantasy option in a solid matchup against the Dolphins’ defense.

Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) doesn’t practice Thursday

Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) did not participate at practice on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Thursday will mark the second-straight day that St. Brown hasn’t practiced because of an abdomen injury. HC Dan Campbell has been non-committal about his status for Sunday, so things seem to be trending in the wrong direction for him. His possible absence would be bad for QB Jared Goff but could lead to more opportunities for Josh Reynolds and Jahmyr Gibbs.

Cooper Kupp (hamstring) logs full practice Thursday

Cooper Kupp (hamstring) was able to log a full practice session on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Kupp returned to practice in a limited fashion for the first time this year on Wednesday, and now on Thursday, he’s already back up to speed and practicing in full. This is a great development in his recovery, and it gives him a very real chance of playing this weekend. If he’s active, he’s a must-start fantasy option and will hurt the fantasy value of standout rookie Puka Nacua moving forward.
