Injury Report for Monday Night Football - Bears at Cowboys

Sep 29, 2012

Chicago Bears

OUT
TE Evan Rodriguez (knee)

QUESTIONABLE
WR Earl Bennett (hand), RB Matt Forte (ankle)

Dallas Cowboys

OUT
LB Alex Albright (neck), DT Kenyon Coleman (knee), C Phil Costa (back), S Matt Johnson (hamstring), DT Jay Ratliff (ankle)

DOUBTFUL
P Chris Jones (left knee)

QUESTIONABLE
LB Anthony Spencer (shoulder)

PROBABLE
WR Miles Austin (hamstring), DT Sean Lissemore (chest), S Gerald Sensabaugh (calf), DT Marcus Spears (knee), RB Lawrence Vickers (illness), LB DeMarcus Ware (hamstring), LB Kyle Wilber (thumb)

Fantasy Impact:

Bears RB coach Tim Spencer said, "Matt [Forte] looks good... Matt does everything that he's supposed to do to try to get ready. Looks good to me.'' It sounds like Forte will suit up Monday night, but we wont officially know until inactives are announced 90 minutes prior to game time. It's a risky play, and even if he goes, Forte could be limited. Owners planning to gamble should have Kahlil Bell rostered as a fallback plan. Earl Bennett isn't worth a start even when healthy.

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

yesterday · 5:34 PM EST

“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

Kevin Fishbain

yesterday · 1:29 PM EST

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.
