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

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.

Tight Ends
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.

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.
