Bucs RB Jacquizz Rodgers has sprained foot

Oct 31, 2016

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Jacquizz Rodgers suffered a foot sprain late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to the Oakland Raiders, according to a source.

Rodgers underwent an MRI, which revealed no fractures, the source said. He was wearing a walking boot on his left foot Monday.

Fantasy Impact:

The Bucs are on a short week so the timing is bad for Rodgers and his owners. Antone Smith and Peyton Barber could see more work on Thursday night and the team also brought back Mike James today.

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
