Vikings RB Dalvin Cook injures hand

Aug 03, 2022

After the team announced starting tight end Irv Smith Jr. would miss the preseason with a thumb injury, starting running back Dalvin Cook left the practice field with what appeared to be a hand injury. He returned for one team snap and then sat out the rest of Tuesday's practice at TCO Performance Center.

Later, his backup, Alexander Mattison, also appeared to injure a finger on a play. He, too, watched the rest of practice from the sideline.

And a third running back, Kene Nwangwu, suffered what coach Kevin O'Connell called a "soft-tissue, lower-leg injury" on Monday. Nwangwu sat out Monday and Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact:

There wasn't any other information but hopefully the injuries aren't serious. Cook, of course, is ranked high among running backs in terms of fantasy value, and we have him sixth on our running back list.

CeeDee Lamb (back) added to injury report, questionable for Monday

Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb was added to the injury report Saturday with a back injury and is questionable for Monday against the Texans.

Fantasy Impact:

Head coach Mike McCarthy is optimistic Lamb will play Monday. It’s the latest in a string of injuries for the 3-6 Cowboys. Lamb sounds like he’ll be good to go, but grabbing a player like Jalen Tolbert may not be the worst idea as a potential backup plan.

Nico Collins off injury report, good to go for Week 11

Houston Texans

yesterday · 6:38 PM EST

Texans WR Nico Collins is good to go for Week 11 against the Cowboys.

Fantasy Impact:

Collins got in two days of full practice Friday and Saturday and does not have an injury designation for Monday. He was activated from injured reserve last week but was held out for one more game. He’ll make his return for his first game since injuring his hamstring back in Week 5. Collins was leading the league in receiving before his injury so expect he and C.J. Stroud to pick up right where they left off. Collins should be back in WR1 (top-12) territory.

Jaguars RB Tank Bigsby officially Out for Week 11

The Jaguars ruled out QB Trevor Lawrence and RB Tank Bigsby for Sunday's game at Detroit.

Related Players: Mac Jones, Travis Etienne, D'Ernest Johnson

Fantasy Impact:

We already knew Mac Jones was declared the starter, but Bigsby being out gives a boost to Etienne. That said, he's still a borderline RB2/3 in a bad offense, in a bad matchup.
