2025 Fantasy Football Injury Tracker

Sam Greene/The Enquirer / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images
One of the aspects of injury tracking that I personally highly value is one place where I can find updated news and projections on my injured players, which is why I wanted to create this table format for everyone to use. Please bookmark this link, as I will continue to update the positional tables throughout each week as more information comes to light. I hope that it becomes a very useful resource for you all in roster management in all formats. I will also list the bye weeks, as these are often important to keep in mind in terms of how teams may manage their injured player return to play timetables.
The 2025 bye weeks are as follows:
- Week 5: Atlanta Falcons, Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers
- Week 6: Houston Texans, Minnesota Vikings
- Week 7: Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills
- Week 8: Arizona Cardinals, Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars, Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Rams, Seattle Seahawks
- Week 9: Cleveland Browns, New York Jets, Philadelphia Eagles, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Week 10: Cincinnati Bengals, Dallas Cowboys, Kansas City Chiefs, Tennessee Titans
- Week 11: Indianapolis Colts, New Orleans Saints
- Week 12: Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Chargers, Miami Dolphins, Washington Commanders
- Week 14: Carolina Panthers, New England Patriots, New York Giants, San Francisco 49ers

Player | Team | Injury | Date of Injury | Projected Return | Injury Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
James Conner | ARI | Foot/Ankle | 9/21 | 2026 | 10/4: Season-ending surgery. Worth a stash on IR in dynasty. High risk of efficiency/production dip into 2026. |
Antonio Gibson | NE | Right ACL+ | 10/5 | 2026 | 10/8: ACL confirmed. Season-ending. |
Miles Sanders | DAL | Knee/Ankle | 9/28 | 2026 | 10/10: Placed on season-ending IR. Jaydon Blue SZN. |
Trey Benson | ARI | Meniscus Surgery | 10/1 | Week 9-12 | 10/3: Low reinjury concern. Surgery for meniscus clean-up/debridement. Should return to starting role. Buy |
Bucky Irving | TB | Left Foot | 9/28 | Week 7-8 | 10/10: Out for week 6. Has a chance to practice next week but no guarantees. Could return week 7 or 8. |
Braelon Allen | NYJ | Left Knee MCL | 9/29 | Week 12-16 | 10/3: Placed on IR. Could still require surgery. Expected to miss 8-12 weeks |
Tyrone Tracy | NYG | Right Shoulder | 9/21 | Week 6-7 | 10/10: Played week 6. Skattebo dominated touches. Unclear if Tracy works in more when healthier. |
Chuba Hubbard | CAR | Calf Strain | 9/21, 9/28 | Week 7-8 | 10/10: Ruled out for week 6. Rico Dowdle revenge game. |
Tyjae Spears | TEN | Right High Ankle | 9/1 | Week 5-6 | 10/8: Played week 5. No setbacks. Set to increase role/touches. Could be flex worthy this week if needed for week 6. |
Miles Sanders | DAL | Ankle/Knee | 9/28 | Week 5-6 | 10/4: Sanders role is likely to be diminished. Jaydon Blue set to be active. Can earn more touches. Stash. |
Omarion Hampton | LAC | Left Foot/Ankle | 10/5 | Week 10-11 | 10/8: Placed on IR. No other specifics provided on the injury. Set to miss at least 4 weeks. |
Marshawn Lloyd | GB | Hamstring | Preseason | TBD | 10/8: Has already missed 4 games plus bye week while on IR. Sounds like he is not close to practicing, but keep monitoring. |
Alvin Kamara | NO | Ankle Sprain | 10/8 | TBD | 10/8: Suffered an ankle injury in practice today. Per reports, it is "Not concerning", but practice will tell us a lot tomorrow. |

Jaylen Warren | PIT | Knee | 9/26 | Week 6 | 10/10: removed from injury report. Full Go. Solid flex play. Team likely keeps Kenneth Gainwell involved. |
Kyle Monangai | CHI | Thigh | 10/8 | Week 6 | 10/10: Upgraded from a DNP to a FP on Friday. Great sign for week 6. |
Player | Team | Injury | Date of Injury | Projected Return | Injury Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Brandon Aiyuk | SF | ACL+ | 10/14/24 | Week 9-12 | 10/3: Aiyuk is reportedly "weeks away" and will not have his 21-day activation window opened prior to week 6. It sounds like a mid-season to late-season debut is most likely. |
Jayden Reed | GB | Clavicle, Foot | Surgery | Week 12-14 | 10/8: Likely best to avoid in redraft/2025. Buy Low in dynasty as a rebuilder for 2026. |
Jalen McMillan | TB | Neck | 8/17 | TBD | 10/10: Still in a neck brace. Likely a long ways out. Still hopes to play this season. |
Ricky Pearsall | SF | PCL Sprain | 9/28 | Week 7-9 | 10/8: Shanahan stated he is a long shot to play week 6. PCL injuries are tricky. Likely taking it week to week. |
Jauan Jennings | SF | Ribs, Ankle | 9/28 | Week 6 | 10/9: practiced Thursday, looked good. Likely plays week 6. |
Cedric Tillman | CLE | Hamstring | 9/28 | Week 10 | 10/3: Tillman placed on IR. CLE has a week 9 bye. Stash Isaiah Bond if he's available. |

KaVontae Turpin | DAL | Foot | 9/28 | Week 7-8 | 10/10: Officially OUT for week 6. Ryan Flourney streamer option. |
Terry McLaurin | WAS | Quad/Hip | 9/21 | Week 6-7 | 10/10: DNPx2 now. Trending towards being out week 6 but practice status on Saturday will be key. |
Deebo Samuel | WAS | Heel | 9/28 | Week 5 | 10/9: DNP but likely plays week 6. No noted setbacks. |
Alec Pierce | IND | Concussion | 9/21 | Week 6 | 10/10: Cleared to play week 6. |
Chris Godwin | TB | Fibula | 2024 | Week 7-9 | 10/10: listed as week to week. Fibula injury is in a different spot than his prior surgeries. My speculation: stress fracture, bone bruise, sydesmotic sprain. No specifics provided yet but not good. |
Darius Slayton | NYG | Hamstring | 10/5 | Week 7-9 | 10/8: ruled out for TNF as expected. |

Ja'Marr Chase | CIN | Illness | 10/10 | Week 6-7 | 10/10: Nearly 100% of players wind up playing despite illness. Bengals play in afternoon slate so hopefully we hear more tomorrow. |
Jalen Coker | CAR | Quad | 8/28 | Week 6-7 | 10/10: Has practiced in Full x3, but listed as Questionable. I think he winds up playing. |

Player | Team | Injury | Date of Injury | Projected Return | Injury Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Brock Bowers | LVR | PCL Sprain | 9/7, 9/28 | Week 7-9 | 10/10: OUT for week 6. LVR has week 8 bye, so could miss week 7 too. Depends on if team wants to get him more rest, which is likely. |
Michael Mayer | LVR | Concussion | 9/21 | Week 6 | 10/8: cleared to play week 6. Streamer this week with Bowers out. |
George Kittle | SF | Hamstring | 9/7 | Week 7 | 10/8: Shanahan stated Kittle is a long shot to play week 6. They are aiming for a week 7 return. Jake Tonges remains TE1. |
Ja'Tavion Sanders | CAR | High Ankle | 9/21 | Week 6-7 | 10/10: practiced but listed as questionable. He was moving well in videos. |
Darren Waller | MIA | Quad/Hip | Preseason | No reinjury | 10/4: played 28% snaps week 4. Increased to 58% snaps, 67% routes week 5. Targeted on 24.3% of his routes so far. Strong TE1 utilization. |
Juwan Johnson | NO | Ankle | 9/28 | Week 6 | 10/8: still listed with Ankle, but no noted setbacks. Production could be limited as long as he is listed with the injury. |
Taysom Hill | NO | ACL/PLC | 12/2024 | Week 5 | 10/10: not listed on the injury report. Unsure on utilization. Sounds like he will primarily be the backup QB, so not many TE/RB snaps. |
Brenton Strange | JAC | Left Quad | 10/6 | Week 11 | 10/8: Placed on IR and will now miss 4 games plus the bye week. Buy Low for his return. |
Colston Loveland | CHI | Hip | 9/28 | Week 6 | 10/8: Returned to practice. Set to play week 6. |
