Skins get good news on RB Rob Kelley, TE Jordan Reed

Sep 18, 2017

Jay Gruden offered good news on the Washington injury front Monday: Running back Rob Kelley and tight end Jordan Reed are day to day.

Washington feared a fractured rib for Kelley, who left Sunday’s game in the second quarter and didn’t return. Further testing revealed a rib cartilage injury, Gruden said via the team’s Twitter account.

Reed has a chest sternum contusion. He played 40 of 71 plays, returning for the final drive after sitting out much of the second half.

Related players: Samaje Perine, Vernon Davis

Fantasy Impact:

Perine did pretty well filling in after Kelley went down and would look to be a good handcuff option at this point for Kelley owners. Davis would see more time if Reed can't go and proved last year to at least be a solid option. We'll know more about both players Wednesday.

“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.
