Patriots hush on Danny Amendola, all injuries

Oct 15, 2013

As Tom Curran of CSN New England explained, the Patriots have put out the word to quit talking about any injured players.

As a result, it has been difficult if not impossible to get updates regarding receiver Danny Amendola (apparent concussion).

Fantasy Impact:

Not like the Pats were ever forthcoming with injuries, but the recent reports about Rob Gronkowski's status has prompted even more of a shutdown. HC Bill Belichick said at one point this year he considers all of his injured players questionable, so even when the injury report comes out Wednesday, we still may not know much about Amendola. Amendola was hit helmet-to-helmet against the Saints and was very wobbly. Based on the hit and how he looked after, it would be a surprise for him to play this week. The good news is, the Pats are in New York for an early game, so we'll know statuses for any injured players an hour before the game.

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

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.
