Denard Robinson has sprained MCL

Sep 21, 2015

The Jacksonville Jaguars could be without running back Denard Robinson for several weeks.

Robinson, the backup to T.J. Yeldon, said Monday he sprained the medial collateral ligament in his left knee in a 23-20 win against Miami. Robinson left the game following a 9-yard run in the first quarter and did not return.

His injury leaves the Jaguars (1-1) thin at the position. Toby Gerhart missed the first two games with an abdominal strain. It's unclear whether Gerhart will be able to practice this week and play at New England (2-0) on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact:

Bernard Pierce is next up on the depth chart if Gerhart can't play in Week 3. It should be good news for Yeldon owners as the rookie should get a big workload.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

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.
