Fantasy Football Injuries to Know for Week 2

Xavier Worthy (WR – KC)

Xavier Worthy (shoulder) logged limited practice on Thursday.

After initially being week-to-week with a shoulder injury, Xavier Worthy was able to get in a limited practice on Thursday, which was quite surprising to see. The fact that Worthy could practice means that there’s an outside chance he can return for Week 2.

Brock Bowers (TE – LV)

Brock Bowers (knee) did not practice on Thursday.

Brock Bowers missed practice on Thursday due to a knee issue. With Bowers missing practice so late in the week, it’s concerning for his availability this week. Hopefully, you were able to scoop Harold Fannin Jr. off the waiver wire to cover yourself for Bowers.

Jaylen Waddle (WR – MIA)

Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) was limited in practice on Thursday.

Jaylen Waddle is banged up with a shoulder issue, but he should be able to suit up against the Patriots. With that said, it’s hard to trust this Dolphins offense right now. Even still, I’d look to buy low on Waddle because it feels inevitable that Tyreek Hill will eventually be traded.
