Eagles WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) said he will miss a couple of weeks

Sep 16, 2024

Eagles WR A.J. Brown told ESPN that he does expect to miss a couple of weeks due to the hamstring injury he suffered Friday.

Related players: DeVonta Smith, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Britain Covey

Fantasy Impact:

Owners can expect him to now be out for Week 3, but perhaps Week 4 is possible given the Eagles bye week comes in Week 5. This will be something to monitor. The hope is Brown is back for Week 4, which is an early game at the Bucs. The Eagles have an early game in Week 6 as well, home against the Browns. Smith should be the team's WR1 with Brown out and newly acquired Dotson should start to see more reps. Wilson is a rookie who really stood out this summer and could end up seeing some snaps as well. Covey played well in Week 2.

“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.
