49ers QB C.J. Beathard has leg injury

Nov 27, 2017

After a big hit from end Michael Bennett, C.J. Beathard didn't do as he usually does and pop right back up. He hobbled to the sideline as Jimmy Garoppolo entered. Beathard is set for an MRI on Monday morning. The hope is that Beathard simply suffered a bruised knee, and he said after the game that he thinks he'll be all right.

Fantasy Impact:

Garoppolo ran three plays, eventually leading the team to a TD. HC Kyle Shanahan said those three plays will have nothing to do with who plays in Week 13. The team is looking to monitor Beathard's leg injury and get to Wednesday before making any decisions.

Seahawks ruled out RB Kenneth Walker III for Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

No mention of Charbonnet here, so we can assume he's in a good place to take a massive workload against a Bears defense that ranks 27th in RB aFPA. Fire up Charbs as an RB2.

The Eagles list QB Jalen Hurts as DNP on their estimated practice report because of a concussion, putting his status for this weekend in doubt.

Things aren't trending well for Hurts, as fantasy managers should be looking for a Championship Week back-up as soon as possible.

Steelers WR George Pickens officially Active for Christmas Day

Chiefs Pro-Bowl DT Chris Jones officially is inactive today vs. the Steelers.

Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. officially is inactive, WR George Pickens officially active.

Related Players: Calvin Austin III, Van Jefferson, Mike Williams

Fantasy Impact:

The Steelers WR room looks a little more palatable with Pickens in the lineup, but it's still not enough to push Russell Wilson above deep-league SuperFlex territory. Consider Pickens a WR3 for Week 17.
