Browns RB Kareem Hunt (calf) expected to miss several weeks

Oct 18, 2021

Browns RB Kareem Hunt is expected to miss several weeks with his calf injury, source said. He’ll likely head to Injured Reserve.

Related players: Nick Chubb, D'Ernest Johnson, Demetric Felton

Fantasy Impact:

It's not surprising news as Hunt was charted off the field. Chubb is battling his own calf injury and with a short week, Thursday night game, may not be ready to go for Week 7. If he's not, that would leave the RB work to Johnson and the rookie Felton. It would be a tough matchup as the Browns host the Broncos.

Lions TE Sam LaPorta ruled Out for Week 11

No Sam LaPorta or Terrion Arnold for the Lions. Amik Robertson plans to take his availability to gameday, see if he can go

Fantasy Impact:

Brock Wright is closer to the "blocking" TE prototype than someone we should be plugging into fantasy lineups, so he's out of fantasy consideration. ARSB/Jamo/Raymond could have a few more targets spread around for them, but we may be seeing a few more carries out of Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.

The Chiefs ruled out RB Isiah Pacheco (knee) for Sunday's game vs. Denver.

LT Josh Simmons and WR Xavier Worthy are off the injury report.

Fantasy Impact:

With Pacheco set to miss more time, Hunt should be considered a fringe RB2/3, while Smith is more of a desperation RB4.

While Rice is still in WR1 territory, Brown is pushed out of potential WR4 range.

Texans TE Dalton Schultz returns to practice, expected to play Week 11

Texans tight end Dalton Schultz returned to practice Friday morning from shoulder injury, illness, expected to play Sunday vs. Titans

C.J. Stroud, Jalen Pitre still not practicing, under concussion protocol. Ruled out, and Ka'imi Fairbairn

Related Players: Harrison Bryant

Fantasy Impact:

Schultz has 13+ half-PPR points in three of his last four games, so he would be in streaming considerations if he does play, which looks like a strong possibility at this point.
