Oct 26, 2013

Tom Brady was spotted flexing his throwing hand during last week's loss to the Jets. It appears an answer has been uncovered.

The middle and ring fingers were taped together today, which was spotted in a photo sent out by the team to promote a Make-A-Wish event at Gillette Stadium. It appeared the event happened after the standard Saturday morning walkthrough.

Brady is listed as probable for tomorrow's game with a right shoulder injury, but there hadn't been any other indication of a finger or hand injury at any other point this week.

Brady was asked about the hand Monday during his appearance on WEEI's Dennis & Callahan.

"I’m like everybody," Brady said. "There’s just bumps and bruises. It happens over the course of the football season. We’ll just get treatment like always and be out there and try to execute as well as I can next week. It’s just part of football."

Fantasy Impact:

Brady is expected to play but the fingers taped together could make things uncomfortable for throwing. It's one thing if Brady had been lighting it up the past few weeks, but as owners know that hasn't been the case. He comes in ranked 11th this week, out of the QB1 range for a ten-team league. It could be a tough matchup against the Dolphins.

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.
