Giants TE Darren Waller potentially out "for weeks"

Nov 01, 2023

TE Darren Waller “very frustrating” and “a little bit discouraging” that he’s dealing with another hamstring injury.

Waller said it’s likely going to be “potentially” weeks. The number of weeks he’s not quite sure.

“It may take a little bit.“

So it seems very unlikely he will play Sunday vs. Raiders. Next week vs. Cowboys is also in question.

Fantasy Impact:

Daniel Bellinger is a real potential replacement for any time that Waller misses after he had a few splashes of production during his rookie year prior to an eye injury. This week's tight end position isn't quite desperate enough to consider him, but next week could be a different story.

Fantastic news for fantasy managers hanging on to Mike Evans: he should be considered a WR1 option immediately.

“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.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift misses Wednesday practice

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.
