TNF Injury Report: Browns vs. Bengals

Nov 04, 2015

Cleveland Browns

OUT
CB Joe Haden (concussion, ankle), WR Brian Hartline (concussion), WR Andrew Hawkins (concussion), QB Josh McCown (right shoulder, ribs), S Jordan Poyer (shoulder), S Donte Whitner (concussion)

QUESTIONABLE
S Tashaun Gipson (ankle), LB Nate Orchard (shoulder), LB Craig Robertson (ankle)

PROBABLE
QB Johnny Manziel (right elbow)

Cincinnati Bengals

OUT
T Andre Smith (concussion)

QUESTIONABLE
DE Carlos Dunlap (shoulder), LB Rey Maualuga (calf)

Fantasy Impact:

Josh McCown is out, so Johnny Manziel gets the start. Travis Benjamin caught three touchdowns from Manziel in the first two weeks, but was only targeted seven times (total). It's also worth noting that Duke Johnson failed to catch a pass in the first two games while Gary Barnidge managed just four catches for 55 yards. These players are all still startable, but obviously the risk is much higher with the erratic Manziel under center.

Cooler weather for Bucs practice today -- Wirfs and Evans practicing again. Still no Zyon McCollum, but Troy Hill and Greg Gaines were practicing today.

Related Players: Sterling Shepard, Jalen McMillan, Trey Palmer

Fantasy Impact:

Fantastic news for fantasy managers hanging on to Mike Evans: he should be considered a WR1 option immediately.

49ers TE George Kittle "good to go" for Week 12

KNBR

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift misses Wednesday practice

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
