Ryan Mathews has groin injury

Oct 26, 2015

Eagles HC Chip Kelly said Monday that RB Ryan Mathews hurt his groin on a 22-yard run in the first half of the game. The injury wasn’t enough to sit him down for the rest of the night, but Kelly said that the team monitored his snaps closely the rest of the way as a result.

Fantasy Impact:

It answers the question, somewhat, as to why Mathews wasn't in the game as much despite again outproducing DeMarco Murray. Kelly, on a morning sports talk interview with 94 WIP, said RB coach Duce Staley was responsible for the RB rotations when asked why Mathews didn't play much after his long TD run. The Birds have a Week 8 bye before taking on the Cowboys in Week 9.

“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.
