Childress: Favre's injury merely a bent fingernail

Sep 21, 2009

Brett Favre's streak is not in danger: He has a bent fingernail.
Favre's throwing hand was clearly hurting after his last throw for Minnesota in Sunday's win over Detroit. He was hit by two defenders in the fourth quarter during a touchdown pass to Percy Harvin.
Favre got up and grimaced, glancing down at his hand and shaking it a few times before heading to the sideline. He didn't return with the Vikings up 27-10.
Coach Brad Childress said Monday that Favre bent a fingernail, and he's fine.

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.
