Fantasy Football Injuries to Know for Your Draft

Malik Nabers (WR – NYG)

Malik Nabers (shoulder/toe) missed practice on Wednesday.

You never want to see one of the most talented wideouts in football deal with a combination of injuries, but at this moment, there’s no reason to be concerned about Malik Nabers. Fire him up at the turn of the first/second round in your fantasy drafts. Jaxson Dart looked good in his debut, which bodes well for Nabers.

Justin Jefferson (WR – MIN)

Justin Jefferson (hamstring) will be re-evaluated next week.

Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell stated that Justin Jefferson is on the right track to return. At this point, there’s no reason to believe that the best wideout in the NFL will miss any regular-season time. Buy the dip on Jefferson if you’re drafting now, as I’ve seen him fall as low as sixth overall.

Najee Harris (RB – LAC)

Najee Harris (eye) took part in drills on Tuesday.

There has been a lot of doom-and-gloom about Najee Harris’ 4th of July freak injury, but I’ve maintained that there’s still time for him to get back on the field for the regular season. With Harris progressing to drills, there’s a good chance he’ll be ready to form a committee with Omarion Hampton in Week 1.

Rhamondre Stevenson (RB – NE)

Rhamondre Stevenson (unspecified) is not dealing with anything serious.

Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel stated he’s not expecting a long-term absence for Rhamondre Stevenson. While rookie TreVeyon Henderson continues to dominate the headlines, expect Stevenson’s strong, interior running to keep him involved in the offense. This looks like a veteran running back value pick.
