Sam Darnold to miss 4-6 weeks with ankle injury

Aug 27, 2022

Panthers QB Sam Darnold is expected to be out for 4-6 weeks with a high ankle sprain.

Fantasy Impact:

Darnold suffered the injury during Friday’s preseason game against the Bills. At the time, the injury looked much worse than it turned out to be. The cart came out for Darnold. So this is a fortunate event for the Panthers, who have already lost rookie Matt Corral for the season to injury. This leaves P.J. Walker as Baker Mayfield’s backup.

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.
