Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (MCL) to miss a few weeks

Oct 11, 2021

Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire suffered an MCL sprain and is out for a few weeks, sources say. While he’ll miss time, not quite as bad as it appeared last night.

Fantasy Impact:

Things looked bad for CEH and his owners Sunday night as teammates had to carry him off the field after the injury. Eventually, CEH was able to walk to the locker room to get an X-ray under his own power, although very gingerly. If the sprain is mild, he could miss a couple of weeks vs. something more moderate which could keep him out longer. Williams will likely get most of the rushing workload while McKinnon could see his time on passing downs.

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.
