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

| CJ Stroud | HOU | Concussion | 11/2 | Week 12-13 | 11/15: ruled out Week 11. HOU plays on TNF, might miss Week 12. |
| Jaxson Dart | NYG | Concussion | 11/9 | Week 12-13 | 11/15: Ruled out, hopeful to clear protocol for week 12. |
| Bryce Young | CAR | Right Ankle/Foot | 11/16 | Week 12 | 11/16: returned to the game, risk of aggravation of prior high ankle. |

| Aaron Rodgers | PIT | Left Wrist Fracture | 11/16 | TBD | 11/16: "small fracture" but unsure if surgery is needed. Also his left wrist, so good news it's not his throwing hand. Need more intel but likely misses time. Mason Rudolph next man up. |
| 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. |

| Cam Skattebo | NYG | Right Ankle Dislocation, Fibula Fracture, Deltoid Ligament Tear |
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. |
| Trey Benson | ARI | Meniscus Surgery | 10/1 | Week 12-13 | 11/6: not practicing yet. Possibly Wk 11 or 12 return. |
| Bucky Irving | TB | Left Foot | 9/28 | Week 12-13 | 11/15: LPx3, likely has a chance to play week 12 |
| 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. |
| Omarion Hampton | LAC | Left Foot/Ankle | 10/5 | Week 13-15 | 11/5: Harbaugh stated they likely won't open up 21-day window until after their bye. Could mean he may not even be ready Wk13. |
| Marshawn Lloyd | GB | Hamstring | Preseason | TBD | 11/6: He was sent out West to "get his body right". Not great. |
| Emari Demercado | ARI | Foot | 11/16 | TBD | 11/16: injured his foot, unsure if related to prior ankle injury. Need more intel on severity |
| Isiah Pacheco | KC | Right MCL Sprain | 10/27 | Week 12-13 | 10/29: Deemed Week to Week, most likely out week 9 but I always have a hard time ruling him out because he plays through injuries. Monitor practice status, he could surprise us. But again, most likely out for week 9. MCL took a lot of force on the hit. |
| Samaje Perine | CIN | High Ankle Sprain | 11/2 | Week 12-14 | 11/2: Looked like a multi-week injury. Ruled out after injury. |
| JK Dobbins | DEN | Lisfranc surgery | 11/6 | 2026 | 11/15: Surgery confirmed for midfoot ligament tear. Season over. |
| Josh Jacobs | GB | Left PCL/Knee | 11/16 | Week 13-16 | 11/16: Likely gets an MRI tomorrow but expect him to miss some time. Unsure on how much, depends on severity. |
| Bhayshul Tuten | JAC | Right Ankle | 11/16 | Week 12-14 | 11/16: He was standing on the sideline with his helmet on so it seems he could have returned to the game. He also talked to media post-game and said his ankle feels good. We'll see. |
| Jaylen Warren | PIT | Left Ankle | 11/16 | Week 12 | 11/16: Returned to the game, but Kenneth Gainwell played more |
| Player | Team | Injury | Date of Injury | Projected Return | Injury Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brandon Aiyuk | SF | ACL+ | 10/14/24 | Week 12-18 | 10/25: deemed week to week but may have his 21 day window opened next week. Return could be close, week 10-12? |
| Jayden Reed | GB | Clavicle, Foot | Surgery | Week 12-13 | 10/8: Likely best to avoid in redraft/2025. 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. |

| 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 after aggravating it. Risk of short term IR or evaluate post bye. |

| Calvin Ridley | TEN | Fibula Fracture | 11/16 | 2026 | 11/16: On his first catch after coming back from injury, he fractured his fibula. Surgery needed, season over. |
| Travis Hunter | JAC | LCL Repair | 10/30 | 2026 | 11/16: LCL Surgery, season over. 5-6 month recovery. |
| Brian Thomas Jr. | JAC | Left High Ankle | 11/2 | Week 12-13 | 11/16: LPx3, looked close but not quite ready. |
| Marvin Mims | DEN | Concussion | 10/26 | Week 11 | 11/2: Notably, DEN plays on Thursday night. Could make it difficult to clear concussion protocol on a short week, but it's possible. |

| Tucker Kraft | GB | Right MCL, ACL | 11/2 | 2026 | 11/4: By the time surgery occurs, will have 9-10 months of recovery. Good chance to be active Wk1 2026. Luke Musgrave time now. |
| Oronde Gadsden | LAC | Left Quad | 11/9 | Week 11 | 11/10: MRI revealed quad contusion, day to day. |
