Titans WR Treylon Burks suffers LCL sprain

Aug 16, 2023

Titans WR Treylon Burks suffered an LCL sprain during practice today, sources say after the MRI. This is good news, as Burks should only miss a few weeks. A scare, but a solid result considering.

Related Players: DeAndre Hopkins, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Chris Moore

Fantasy Impact:

Burks' rapidly descending ADP should continue its downward trajectory, which could certainly make him a target if Hopkins doesn't become a complete target hog in this run-heavy offense. Consider Burks a WR5 target as he falls well into the double-digit rounds, with upside if he makes a complete return close to Week 1.

Fantastic news for fantasy managers hanging on to Mike Evans: he should be considered a WR1 option immediately.

“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

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.
