Denver RB Correll Buckhalter Okay After Trip To Hospital

Aug 01, 2010

As a precaution, Broncos running back Correll Buckhalter was taken by ambulance to a local hospital, where he has already been treated and released, according to an NFL source. Buckhalter has an upper-back pull, after doctors checked his neck, back and spine.

He suffered the injury during the Broncos’ first training camp practice Sunday morning, a few minutes after starting tailback Knowshon Moreno was carted off the field with a serious right hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact:

Needless to say, it has not been a good day for the Denver Broncos. Buckhalter's injury looks to be minor in comparison to Moreno's, and once he's back on the field, Uncle Buck will likely be Denver's number one running back for as long as Moreno is out.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
