The Commanders are signing QB Jeff Driskel off the Cardinals practice squad, per source.

Fantasy Impact:

Driskel served as Washington’s QB3 last season, the post pointed out. He's now back as a depth piece with Mariota (hand) uncertain for Week 17 and Daniels sidelined. Reports say Johnson could very well be the starter for Week 17 but Driskel could serve as the QB2.

Vikings J.J. McCarthy has a right hand injury and will get an MRI.

Related players Max Brosmer

Fantasy Impact:

Rapoport said X-rays were negative, but he will get an MRI to see if there is any other damage, or if it might be just a bruise. If McCarthy can't go in Week 17, Brosmer would get his second start. Of course, we all remember his first start. But, Brosmer was 7 for 9 for 52 yards in relief of McCarthy in Week 16.

Jordan Love is in concussion protocol.
Malik Willis is dealing with a shoulder injury.

Fantasy Impact:

As Rapoport said, all concussions are different, but the trend is for players to miss a game when entering protocol. Love owners will want to keep an eye on him this week to see if he can get back on the practice field. Meanwhile, Willis is dealing with a right shoulder injury, but did finish the game. However, this will also be worth monitoring. The Packers play another Saturday game in Week 17 so fantasy owners should have plenty of time to adjust lineups, but may want to start planning now.
