Calvin Johnson leaves practice with jammed thumb

Aug 09, 2009

Calvin Johnson left practice with a jammed thumb on his right hands and safety Daniel Bullocks is having his ailing knee examined in Birmingham, Ala. by Dr. James Andrews.
Johnson, who has practiced despite jammed fingers on both hands, had his thumb wrapped for about 45 minutes during practice before it was removed by a trainer. Schwartz said Johnson's injury is not believed to be serious.

Lions head coach Jim Schwartz has told his players not to discuss injuries so Johnson refused to talk about his injured thumb after practice.

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.
