Jay Cutler knocked out of game with concussion

Nov 11, 2012

Jay Cutler was knocked out of the Chicago Bears' 13-6 loss to the Houston Texans on Sunday night after suffering a concussion. Cutler was injured on a jarring hit by Texans linebacker Tim Dobbins with 2:56 remaining in the second quarter. Dobbins was flagged for unnecessary roughness. Cutler stayed in the game, and was back on the field for Chicago's final second-quarter possession. He did not undergo any concussion tests on the sideline, which could draw the attention of the league office.

Cutler was replaced by Jason Campbell, who was given good money in the offseason to protect the Bears in the event Cutler went down. The insurance policy came in handy on Sunday night.

Fantasy Impact:

The good news for Cutler is after the game coach Lovie Smith said his symptoms appeared to be clearing up after halftime and he was hopeful Cutler could play next week. A lot will have to happen before that as far as Cutler passing tests to get back to practice. Jason Campbell would get the start if Cutler can't go. The Bears are at the 49ers next Monday night, so we'll have to know a lot more about Cutler's situation before you put him or Campbell in your lineup in what will be a very tough matchup.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift, WR Keenan Allen both Questionable for Week 12

Scott Bair

D'Andre Swift is questionable to play Vikings with a groin injury, though he was limited Thursday and a full participant on Friday.

Keenan Allen is questionable with an ankle injury. He was limited on Friday, his first day on the participation report.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze

Fantasy Impact:

Separate reports called Swift "very likely" to play, but this is seemingly a new issue for Allen.

If Keenan were to miss Week 12, it would boost the floor of all pass-catchers, namely Moore, Oduzne, and Cole Kmet. Moore + Odunze would sneak closer to WR2 territory than their low-end WR3 designations they have with a healthy Allen.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco officially Out for Week 12

Charles Omenihu (knee) and Isiah Pacheco (ankle) won’t play on Sunday, per Coach Reid.

“Just taking it day-by-day,” Reid added.

Related Players: Samaje Perine

Fantasy Impact:

It was later reported that Pacheco was "healthy enough" but they're hoping to hold him back one more game with a short week coming up. This makes Hunt a volume-based RB2 in Week 12.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb returns to Friday practice

CeeDee Lamb practiced today, per Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy. That’s a good sign.

Lamb (back/foot) was limited in a walkthrough on Wednesday and missed practice on Thursday.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks, Ryan Flournoy

Fantasy Impact:

Obviously good news for the Cowboys' potential in rolling out an NFL offense in Week 12. The floor is capped for Lamb but we should expect a ton of action funneling his way against the Commanders, which puts him on the WR1/2 fringe.
