Packers place RB A.J. Dillon on season-ending IR

Aug 27, 2024

Running back A.J. Dillon was placed on injured reserve and was not designated to return, meaning he is done for the year.

Dillon recently suffered another stinger and last week said he was awaiting test results. Head coach Matt LaFleur had said “absolutely there’s a concern” with Dillon’s injury, noting that Green Bay would proceed cautiously.

Fantasy Impact:

Dillon, 26, was expected to be the primary backup to running back Jacobs, and the team recently announced the rookie Lloyd will start the season on the PUP list and miss the first four games of the season at least. Wilson and Merriweather are now behind Jacobs, but it's possible the Packers will have to make a move at the position at least until Lloyd comes back.

Seahawks WR DK Metcalf expected to practice Wednesday

Mike MacDonald says DK Metcalf is expected to practice Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

Metcalf suffered a MCL sprain and missed weeks 8 and 9 and is coming off the bye week, so the hope is Metcalf is good to go for Week 11. It will be worth monitoring the injury and practice reports this week. The Seahawks travel to San Francisco in a later Sunday game so owners will at least want to have a plan in place just in case he's a game-time call.

The Dolphins will have star receiver Tyreek Hill when they play the Rams tonight.

Hill is officially active after he was questionable for the Week 10 contest with a wrist injury.

Fantasy Impact:

The story added Lisa Salters of ESPN reported on Monday that Hill underwent an MRI that showed a torn ligament in his wrist. Hill noted that he was dealing with a wrist issue during training camp that was aggravated during his detainment by police before Miami’s season opener on Sept. 8.

Bills WR Keon Coleman (wrist) won't play Week 11

Sean McDermott says Bills WR Keon Coleman will not play Sunday against Kansas City.

Related players: Khalil Shakir, Mack Hollins, Curtis Samuel

Fantasy Impact:

It was possible that Coleman was going to miss multiple weeks of action with the wrist injury and that's now already confirmed. It's the second-straight week Coleman will be out. The Bills are hoping to get back Cooper this week, but if they don't Shakir and Hollins will be the top WRs with Samuel likely also involved. Hollins had a 4-86-0 line with Shakir collecting a 6-58-0 line in Week 10 against the Colts.
