Lions TE T.J. Hockenson (concussion) won't return

Sep 29, 2019

Rookie tight end T.J. Hockenson was carted to the locker room after taking a scary fall on his right shoulder in the third quarter of the Detroit Lions' game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Hockenson was injured with 2:10 to play in the quarter when he caught a 9-yard pass from Matthew Stafford and tried to hurdle Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu.

Linebacker Damien Wilson caught Hockenson's left leg while Hockenson was in the air and spun the tight end to the ground.

Fantasy Impact:

Hockenson's body went limp after he hit the ground, but he sat up on his own and eventually walked to a waiting medical cart, where he was taken up the Ford Field tunnel, evaluated for a concussion and ruled out for the rest of the game.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
