2025 Fantasy Football Injury Tracker

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
Quarterbacks
Player Team Injury Date of Injury Projected Return Injury Notes
Joe Burrow CIN Left Turf Toe 9/14 Week 12-14 11/19: Full participation today in practice. I still think it is more likely
that he returns Week 13 or 14, but sounds like there's a chance.
Carson Wentz MIN Left Shoulder 10/19 2026 10/28: Undergoing season-ending surgery for torn Left labrum, fractured
socket. Should be fine for 2026 season.

Running Backs
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.

10/26 2026 10/29: confirmed Right Fibula fracture, ankle dislocation, deltoid
ligament tear. Current projection: Active week 1, 80-90% of himself
by October/November with a chance that he's there by September
if all goes well. Good that the tibia was not fractured.

but might return week 12. I lean week 13.

Braelon Allen NYJ Left Knee MCL Surgery 9/29 Season Ending 10/21: Braelon posted a photo on IG with surgical incisions that appear
to indicate an MCL repair/reconstruction. His 2025 season is over.

returns week 13 after their bye.

Wide Receivers
Player Team Injury Date of Injury Projected Return Injury Notes

next week. Return could be close, week 10-12?

Buy Low in dynasty as a rebuilder for 2026.
Mike Evans TB Right Clavicle 10/20 Week 15-18 10/20: Evans confirmed fractured clavicle and will most majority of the
rest of the season. 6-8 week timetable but conservatively prepare for
minimum of 8 weeks for return for now.
Jalen McMillan TB Neck 8/17 TBD 11/4: Neck fracture. Likely stable at this point, meaning ligament damage
is the key variable that still needs to heal. Could be another month.
Ricky Pearsall SF PCL Sprain 9/28 Week 11 11/16: played 84% snaps, 1 target, 0 catches.
Terry McLaurin WAS Quad/Hip 9/21, 10/27 Week 13-15 10/29: Aggravated the "quad" injury MNF but told media that he is
fine. Now ruled out Wk9. Wk12 bye. Likely multi-week absence
