Injuries in fantasy football can feel like a gut punch, but fortunately, Week 3 of the NFL season has been relatively light on significant injuries compared to the chaos we faced in the first two weeks. While we can always expect some names to pop up on the injury report for Week 4, here’s the lowdown on a few players who got banged up during their Week 3 games.
Quarterback updates
Justin Herbert suffered a high-ankle sprain but managed to aggravate it during the game, causing him to leave the field. Thankfully, X-rays came back negative, and according to Ian Rapoport, he’ll be monitored closely throughout the week. Sam Darnold also had a knee scare but, according to Jay Glazer, nothing structurally serious was found, so he should be good to go against the Packers.
Skylar Thompson, the Dolphins’ backup turned starter, didn’t have the best outing against Seattle, leaving the game with a chest injury. Head coach Mike McDaniel revealed it’s actually a rib issue and mentioned Thompson was eager to get back in. Just a heads-up: Tyler Huntley is on the practice squad if they need him.
Running Back News
Najee Harris left the Steelers’ game with a sling on his arm, raising some eyebrows about his condition. Meanwhile, Jaylen Warren was pulled for what looked like a knee issue. Coach Tomlin noted something was off, so we’ll need to keep a close watch on both Steelers RBs.
Wide Receiver Woes
In the Eagles’ win, DeVonta Smith took a nasty hit that looked illegal but went uncalled, leaving him with a concussion and sidelined for the rest of the game.Amari Cooper also went down late in the game against the Giants after landing awkwardly, and we’re waiting for updates on his condition. Adam Thielen pulled his hamstring and is set for an MRI, while Jordan Addison is day-to-day with an ankle sprain but is hopeful to play.
Tight End Updates
Sam LaPorta seems to have escaped serious injury with a low-ankle sprain, as he returned to action after halftime. Conversely, Trey McBride is in concussion protocol after a brutal hit, and David Njoku missed the Browns’ last game due to a high-ankle sprain. Coach Stefanski is keeping his cards close to the vest about Njoku’s status for Week 4, saying, “we’ll see.”
