Week 7 injury report: Fantasy owners seeking fill-in for Carlos Hyde
Here are some of the injury questions that will impact fantasy owners the most in Week 7.
RB Eddie Lacy, Packers (doubtful)
After playing on a sore ankle in Week 6, he may miss several weeks. Newly acquired Knile Davis needs time to learn the playbook.
Beware, Eddie Lacy fantasy owners: There's a weird wrinkle to owning his replacement Ty Montgomery
TE Jordan Reed, Redskins (questionable)
Concussion kept him out last game, and he’s yet to be cleared to return. Vernon Davis caught a TD pass in his place.
WR Terrelle Pryor, Browns (questionable)
Ailing hamstring has kept him from practicing this week. Isaiah Crowell could see more work vs. Bengals’ 20th-ranked run defense.
TE Dwayne Allen, Colts (questionable)
His early exit opened the door for Jack Doyle’s best game since Week 1. If his ankle doesn’t improve, Doyle’s a decent start vs. Titans.
WR Stefon Diggs, Vikings (questionable)
Bye week should help his injured groin recover. Expect a light week of practice and a decision on his status late in the week.
Fantasy football rankings: Week 7
RB Carlos Hyde, 49ers (questionable)
Missed Wednesday’s workout with his arm in a sling. Mike Davis has taken over as Hyde’s primary backup.
QB Ben Roethlisberger, Steelers (questionable)
Expected to miss 4 to 6 weeks following knee surgery. WR Antonio Brown’s value takes a hit with Landry Jones under center.
WR Will Fuller, Texans (questionable)
Rookie didn’t play last week due to a sore hamstring, but should be ready for Monday night vs. Broncos’ No. 1 pass defense.
