Alexander Mattison was surprisingly downgraded to out with an illness, and Tom Pelissero is reporting that it was due to appendicitis that required surgery. (Tom Pelissero on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
The majority of appendectomies are done arthroscopically nowadays so the recovery time shouldn't be too bad for Mattison. There's a chance that he could miss multiple weeks but nothing has been confirmed so far. In Mattison's absence, Ameer Abdullah should play second fiddle to Dalvin Cook who is primed for a huge game against a porous Jacksonville defense on Sunday.
