Bucs lose RB Jacquizz Rodgers to foot injury

Oct 30, 2016

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are starting to get very thin at running back. The latest person to go down is Jacquizz Rodgers, as he left Sunday’s contest against the Oakland Raiders with a foot injury and was declared out for the remainder of the game.

Fantasy Impact:

The injury leaves the Buccaneers in dire straits at the running back position. With Rodgers now out, the team has lost three running backs this year. In addition to Rodgers, Doug Martin has been out with a hamstring injury and Charles Sims was placed on IR a few weeks back with a knee injury. As a result, the Buccaneers are now down to Antoine Smith, who just signed with the team last week.

“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

Related Players: Eric Saubert

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.
