Panthers QB Sam Darnold (shoulder) to miss several weeks

Nov 09, 2021

After two days of testing, exams revealed that Panthers QB Sam Darnold has a fractured scapula, sources say.

Related players: Phillip Walker

Fantasy Impact:

The right shoulder injury will most likely lead to Darnold missing several weeks. Walker, his backup, will step in. Some who follow the team were saying it was time for the Panthers to bench Darnold. However, they also admitted Walker is likely not the answer either. At this point, Walker could be showcasing for the rest of this season even when Darnold is able to return. Walker is worth grabbing in deeper, two-QB and superflex leagues.

49ers RB Isaac Guerendo "plans to play" TNF

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.

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.
