Packers RB Ryan Grant Appears To Be Okay After Big Hit

Aug 15, 2010

Packers running back Ryan Grant took a hit to the head and needed help from trainers after being tackled in the first quarter of Green Bay’s exhibition opener against the Cleveland Browns.

Grant was having a bad night before the injury on his third carry. He fumbled on his first touch, leading to a Cleveland touchdown.

After a gain of 6 yards on his second carry, Grant was hit hard on his third attempt by linebacker Chris Gocong and defensive end Robaire Smith.

Several trainers came to Grant’s aid after he stumbled badly getting up and helped him off the field.

"I can tell you right now, if it was the regular season, I definitely would’ve tried to get back in the game," Grant said. "I just got my bell rung a little bit, but I’m all right now."

Coach Mike McCarthy said Grant would be re-evaluated on Sunday and Monday, but that the head trainer said Grant cleared his tests on the sideline.

49ers RB Isaac Guerendo "plans to play" TNF

Adam Schefter

San Francisco 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo plans to play Thursday night against the Los Angeles Rams despite his sprained foot, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Guerendo, who is listed as questionable, insists he "feels good," sources said.

Fantasy Impact:

We're projecting Patrick Taylor as the next man up in the 49ers' version of running back roulette *if* Guerendo is forced out, as he easily has the most familiarity with the team. Abanikanda can be stashed if that's not the case, but shouldn't be in starting consideration if Guerendo does indeed miss Week 15.

Otherwise, consider the fourth-round rookie a fantasy RB2.

— The Rams ruled out TE Tyler Higbee (knee) and Cobie Durant (chest).

Rams are listing WR Demarcus Robinson (shoulder), WR Jordan Whittington (shoulder), and TE Davis Allen (shoulder) as questionable for Thursday night’s game versus the 49ers.

Fantasy Impact:

This doesn't really impact Nacua or Kupp either way, but Atwell could log a little extra work here. Consider him a very deep league WR5.
