Fantasy Impact:

Darnold will test out his injury pre-game for further determination, but reportedly the injury was something the quarterback had never felt before. The team was spooked and shut him down, but they have confidence in his status. Drew Lock will be the next player in line in case of any issue, and ESPN's Adam Schefter said the team is uncertain at this point if Darnold will be limited at all.
