Saints RB Mark Ingram is in the concussion protocol

Nov 18, 2016

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram left the game against the Carolina Panthers at the 7:26 mark of the third quarter after appearing to take a blow to the helmet.

He is under concussion protocol, the team announced at the start of the fourth quarter.

Ingram had just gained 13 yards when he collided with Carolina Panthers safety Kurt Coleman. Ingram appeared to go limp before hitting the ground, as played immediately waved to the sidelines for trainers.

Ingram walked to the sideline under his own power.

Fantasy Impact:

Since it was a Thursday night game, Ingram has a few extra days to recover before Week 12. Tim Hightower would be a Sneaky Start if Ingram can't play next 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

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.
