Broncos QB Trevor Siemian (shoulder) likely out for season

Dec 15, 2017

Siemian was knocked out of last night's football game with what turned out to be a dislocated shoulder. The team still needs an MRI to confirm the severity of the injury, but Broncos beat reporter Mike Klis believes it will knock him out of the team's remaining two games.

Fantasy Impact:

In relief, Brock Osweiler had one of the best performances of his career, throwing for 194 yards and 2 touchdowns and he added an 18-yard score on the ground. Osweiler will most likely finish the season as the Broncos' starting QB since Paxton Lynch is also on the injured list with a high-ankle sprain.

A Week 16 matchup versus Washington awaits Osweiler. While you're most likely able to find a better starting QB option in leagues that start only one QB, two-QB or superflex owners might want to consider him as a QB2 option in desperate situations. Washington has allowed 20 or more fantasy points to opposing QBs in five of their last eight games and 14+ in seven of the last nine games.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker listed as DNP; RB Zach Carbonnet full

Adam Schefter on X

Seahawks listed RB Kenneth Walker III as a Did Not Practice today while RB Zach Charbonnet was upgraded to full practice ahead of Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Fantasy Impact:

Walker is dealing with an ankle injury and as we get closer to Thursday his status really seems to be in doubt. Charbonnet would be the team's lead back and looks to be good to go despite dealing with an elbow injury. He'd once again be a great option if Walker is unable to go.

Charger RBs Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins listed as limited

Gus Edwards is listed as a limited participant due to an ankle injury. Edwards ran 14 times for 68 yards and two touchdowns in last Sunday’s win over the Broncos.

J.K. Dobbins (knee) was also limited in his first appearance on the injury report since being designated for return from injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said if Dobbins is going to play against the Patriots, the Chargers will have to activate him by Friday. It could be a tricky situation depending on each back's status. Owners will want to pay close attention to this situation leading up to game time.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow, WR Tee Higgins listed as limited

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow told reporters on Tuesday that he feels like he’s totally past his right wrist injury, but it still landed him on the team’s injury report.

Burrow was listed as limited due to the wrist and his knee

Wide receiver Tee Higgins (ankle, knee) was listed as limited as well,

Fantasy Impact:

The story said Burrow's injury shouldn’t create much cause for concern about his availability against the Broncos on Saturday since he was listed as limited all of last week before playing without issue in the team’s win over the Browns. Burrow added there are still things he does to help with it but he's pretty much past it. The story added Higgins also played without incident last Sunday after being on the report all week.
