WR Andre Johnson could miss time

Oct 03, 2011

Texans WR Andre Johnson injured his hamstring. The fear is that Johnson may miss a few weeks, at least.

Some in the organization were privately saying they felt Johnson's chances of playing this week were extremely slim.

Fantasy Impact:

A huge blow to fantasy lineups who took Johnson with a high pick. We'll continue to monitor his progress, but it appears that owners should have a backup plan for next week, especially as bye weeks start. Jacoby Jones looks like he could be more of a factor in the passing game.

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.
