Injury Report for MNF: Eagles @ Saints

Nov 03, 2012

Philadelphia Eagles

OUT
G Danny Watkins (ankle), WR Mardy Gilyard (hamstring)

QUESTIONABLE
S Nate Allen (hamstring), DT Cullen Jenkins (knee)

PROBABLE
CB Brandon Boykin (toe), T King Dunlap (hamstring), DE Phillip Hunt (calf)

New Orleans Saints

OUT
RB Darren Sproles (hand), WR Courtney Roby (shoulder)

PROBABLE
LB David Hawthorne (hamstring), WR Joe Morgan (chest)

Fantasy Impact:

Sproles is the only player with significant fantasy value on this injury report. The Saints hope to get Sproles back within the next six weeks but some reports suggest that his hand injury could sideline him for up to eight weeks. Pierre Thomas is likely to see the biggest increase in touches and production with Sproles out. He’s the 12th-rated running back in our Week 9 rankings for standard leagues and is 6th for PPR formats.

Cooler weather for Bucs practice today -- Wirfs and Evans practicing again. Still no Zyon McCollum, but Troy Hill and Greg Gaines were practicing today.

Related Players: Sterling Shepard, Jalen McMillan, Trey Palmer

Fantasy Impact:

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

49ers TE George Kittle "good to go" for Week 12

KNBR

“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.
