49ers QB Trey Lance dealing with knee sprain

Oct 11, 2021

Kyle Shanahan says Trey Lance doesn't know when he injured knee. He had 16 carries. Prognosis: NOT a long-term injury, should be 1 to 2 week thing, but possibly just one week.

Jimmy Garoppolo may have better chance to return post-bye for Colts game but all TBD.

Fantasy Impact:

It's being called a left knee sprain, according to Inman. The 49ers have a bye in Week 6 and return to play the Colts in Week 7. The bad news is it's a Sunday night game, so owners will need a backup plan if they are counting on Lance or Garoppolo in Week 7. We likely won't know much more until next week.

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.
