Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones has the eyes of fantasy football managers as he is trying to play through an injury. Meanwhile, Green Bay Packers receiver Jayden Reed has been working to get back on the field. And here is the NFL Week 14 Fantasy Football injury report.
Jones has been fighting through a fracture in his fibula. That seems impossible for an NFL player. But he has continued to practice, even though he might be on the injury report for the rest of the season, according to NBC Sports.
“The good news is that he managed the issue well in Week 13, taking one sack without turning the ball over,” NBC Sports wrote. “With the Colts likely leaning on their ground game to protect Jones going forward, fantasy managers should treat him as a high-end QB2 as opposed to the locked-in QB1 they thought they had earlier this year.”
Let’s take a look at some of the other key players. The following players are the ones whose status seems to be the most questionable.
Brown left the Thanksgiving Day game against the Packers. And his availability for tonight’s key game against the Cowboys is questionable.
St. Brown remains in a hopeful mode, according to profootballnetwork.com.
“It hurts, but it’s getting better,” St. Brown said. “So, that’s the good news. Just day by day.”
Reed hasn’t made guarantees about playing, according to Sports Illustrated.
“I don’t know, man,” Reed said. “We’re going to see. Time will tell.”
However, his return could make a difference for the Packers, according to The Athletic.
“It would be huge,” receiver Christian Watson said of the possibility Reed returns Sunday against his hometown Bears for the biggest game between the rivals in 12 years. “We’re definitely going to be a better football team with him out there, so excited to get him back whenever that is, hopefully this week.”
After having surgery on his non-throwing hand, Herbert is still hopeful to play Monday night, according to ESPN.
“The plan is to prepare as if I’m going to play and see how the next couple of days goes,” Herbert said. “Do everything I can to be out there for the team and the guys out there.”
Hampton is expected to make his first appearance since Week 5 when the Chargers play on Monday Night Football. But his status remained up in the air heading into Thursday’s practice.
Adams missed practice on Wednesday, but head coach Sean McVay expects him to be available, according to a post on X by Stu Jackson.
The Buccaneers enter the week hopeful Evans can return. But he was limited in practice on Wednesday, and doesn’t, at this point, appear to be a serious candidate for a full go in Sunday’s game.
