Saints QB Derek Carr (oblique) expected to miss multiple games

Oct 08, 2024

Sources: Saints QB Derek Carr is expected to miss multiple games with an oblique injury he suffered against the Chiefs.

Related players: Jake Haener, Spencer Rattler

Fantasy Impact:

Garafolo went on to point out New Orleans has two games in the next nine days, and the likelihood is Carr misses Sunday vs. the Buccaneers and Thursday vs. the Broncos. Garafolo, in a different post, said rookie fifth-rounder Rattler is a strong candidate to get the start in Carr’s absence. Haener was the backup and came on after Carr was injured, but it looks like Rattler could get his chance.

“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.
