Martellus Bennett limping

Aug 10, 2009

Cowboys 2nd-year TE Martellus Bennett sat out the last dozen or so team plays Monday morning after apparently injuring his knee.

According to those who know, it is not considered serious and Bennett said, "nothing" was wrong after he left the field. That came after a longer than normal talk post-practice with Wade Phillips and Jerry Jones. He was favoring his leg as he walked off and this might have been the first time he chose not to speak with reporters. Ever.

Add that to Felix Jones' stiff toe, and the Cowboys' offense would look a lot different if those two were to miss any time during the regular season. As he walked off the field, Felix Jones said he was fine and that he would be at the afternoon practice.

“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.
