Ja'Marr Chase expected to miss 4-6 weeks with a hip injury

Oct 27, 2022

Bengals’ WR Ja’Marr Chase is dealing with a hip injury that is expected to sideline him 4-6 weeks and makes him a prime candidate for injured reserve, per sources. Chase visited with a hip specialist Wednesday and is seeking more answers about his injury.

Fantasy Impact:

Tough blow for Chase managers. It's an upgrade for Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd and Hayden Hurst, who all figure to see a bump in targets. Joe Mixon could also benefit from more passing work as well. Mike Thomas probably sees the biggest bump in playing time, though at age 28, he's never gained more than 132 yards receiving in a season. It's a blow to Joe Burrow's overall value, though in the current QB landscape, he's still a solid fantasy QB1.

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

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

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.
