Lions RB Dwayne Washington has sprained foot, ankle

Oct 03, 2016

Lions RB Dwayne Washington suffered a sprained ankle and foot in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Chicago Bears, but the rookie running back is hopeful he won't miss any time with his injuries.

Washington left midway through Sunday's second quarter after he had a 5-yard run called back by a holding penalty and was limping noticeably in the locker room after the game.

Fantasy Impact:

Zach Zenner replaced him as the Lions' No. 2 running back in the second half. If Washington can't play this Sunday against the Eagles, Theo Riddick and Zenner should carry a bulk of the load. On Monday, the Lions signed running back Mike James to their practice squad and released running back George Winn.

“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.

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.
