Matthew Stafford leads Monday's walk through

Sep 21, 2015

Matthew Stafford keeps getting hit. And he keeps getting right back up.

The Detroit Lions quarterback was hit at least 10 times in Sunday's 26-16 loss against the Minnesota Vikings, including twice as he was running defenselessly out of bounds. He suffered a rib injury in the beating, and underwent X-rays after the game.

His status for the home opener on Sunday night against the Denver Broncos is unclear. But if Monday was any indication, he stands a pretty good chance of being in the lineup.

Stafford led Detroit's walk-through on Monday, and multiple players said he was moving much better.

Fantasy Impact:

He refused to take any questions in the locker room afterward, but he looked and sounded much better than he did after the game, when he had to wheeze his way through a 4-minute press conference, the story said. While is status is in doubt, this is at least a good sign he has a chance to play in Week 3. The story also added that Stafford said he was feeling "all right" in a radio interview Monday.

A quick update on Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew: he suffered a broken collarbone against the Broncos and is out for the season.

Fantasy Impact:

We had just posted the quote from head coach Antonio Pierce, saying it didn’t look good. It turned out it wasn’t good. Minshew looked like he was in a lot of pain after taking the his late in the game. Now we have an understanding of that pain. Desmond Ridder came on in relief and the team is expected to activate Aidan O’Connell this week from injured reserve. The Raiders visit Kansas City on Friday.

Antonio Pierce on Gardner Minshew injury: ‘It doesn’t look good.’

Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce said “It doesn’t look good” in regards to the shoulder injury to quarterback Gardner Minshew.

Fantasy Impact:

Minshew went down late in the game against the Broncos after taking a sack and looked to be in quite a bit of pain. He’ll undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury.

Desmond Ridder came on in replacement. He went 5-of-10 for 64 yards and was sacked twice. If Minshew is to miss time, which looks very likely, the Raiders may look to see what they have in the former Falcons quarterback. Vegas is also expected to have Aidan O’Connell back this week. The Raiders are on a short week as they head to Kansas City on Black Friday.

Romeo Doubs ruled out with concussion

Packers WR Romeo Doubs was ruled out of Sunday’s game against the 49ers with a concussion.

Fantasy Impact:

Doubs suffered the injury while attempting a catch in the end zone and landing hard on the back of his helmet. Doubs will not return tonight and it’s almost certain he’ll be ruled out for Thursday night against the Dolphins. If that’s the case, his next chance to return would be the following Thursday against the Lions.
