Report: Washington QB Ryan Fitzpatrick (hip) to miss several weeks

Sep 13, 2021

Washington Football Team QB Ryan Fitzpatrick suffered a hip subluxation, knocking him out several weeks and likely meaning a stint on IR. He'll have an MRI today to determine how much time he'll miss.

Related players: Kyle Allen, Taylor Heinicke, Cam Newton

Fantasy Impact:

It's essentially a dislocated hip. Rapoport said it could go a couple of different ways - it could be extremely serious where he doesn't play at all for the rest of this year, or it could be minor. But at the very least, Fitz is going to miss several weeks, so a stint on IR makes a lot of sense here. He went on to say the team will look inward first, meaning Heinicke and Allen will get the chances. It appears for now, bringing in Newton doesn't look to be on the table.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

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.
