Fantasy Football Injury Updates

Note: The list below includes new injuries. However, players like Chris Godwin, Isaiah Likely and Xavier Worthy, who aren’t officially on injured reserve (IR), the Non-Football Injury/Illness list (NFI) or the physically unable to perform (PUP) list, will remain on this report.

Quarterback

Joe Burrow (QB – CIN)

Joe Burrow left Week 2’s game about halfway through the second quarter with what appeared to be an ankle/leg injury. It was later revealed that he suffered a turf toe injury and was seen with a walking boot. It is believed that he suffered a Grade 3 turf toe injury, which would result in surgery and a three-month absence.

In relief, Jake Browning had two passing touchdowns and three interceptions. He’d be the starter if Burrow does indeed miss time.

Justin Fields (QB – NYJ)

In the fourth quarter against the Buffalo Bills, Jets quarterback Justin Fields suffered a concussion and didn’t return. If he’s out for Week 3, Tyrod Taylor would be the starter.
