Giants shutting down QB Daniel Jones (neck)

Dec 20, 2021

The Giants are shutting down QB Daniel Jones for the remainder of the season because of his neck injury, per source.

Related players: Mike Glennon, Jake Fromm

Fantasy Impact:

The move makes sense for a team that's likely not going to make the playoffs. It's a premature end to his third professional season, one that probably left the Giants with more questions than answers going forward at the position. The good new is there is optimism the injury is not expected to affect Jones’ long-term future, which is the most important thing. Glennon threw three INTs in Week 15 and the team is considering making a switch to Fromm in Week 16 against the Eagles.

“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

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.
