Fantasy football injuries: Week 2 damage report
Star players across the NFL went down in Week 2, reshaping fantasy matchups and forcing tough roster decisions.
In brief
Star players across the NFL went down in Week 2, reshaping fantasy matchups and forcing tough roster decisions. Monitor practice reports this week for Jayden Daniels, Caleb Williams, and Dallas Goedert to determine their availability for Week 3. Originally reported by PhillyVoice.
Daniels' elbow injury clouds outlook
The Commanders QB dislocated his elbow in Week 2 after missing time last year with similar injuries. Early X-rays showed no fracture, suggesting a possible return soon.
Williams likely out multiple games
The Bears QB pulled his hamstring Sunday and will undergo imaging this week. He's expected to miss at least a few games in the best case scenario.
Barkley's stinger looks manageable
The Eagles RB left with a stinger and missed most of the first half but returned for the second. He's likely to play Monday against Chicago, though he may be limited in practice.
Moore's shoulder injury day-to-day
The Bills WR strained his AC joint Thursday night after just one touch and didn't return. The shoulder injury is currently being called day-to-day.
Pierce's heel injury raises questions
The Colts WR hurt his heel after one touch and X-rays came back negative. His status this week is worth monitoring, especially given his offseason ankle surgery.
Dobbins' hamstring opens door for Coleman
The Broncos RB hurt his hamstring after 36 yards and didn't return. Rookie backup Jonah Coleman scored his first career touchdown and could be taking over the job.
Price's chest injury likely precautionary
The Seahawks RB left with a chest injury in a game already out of hand. X-rays came back negative, suggesting he sat out as a precaution rather than due to serious damage.
Evans leaves as precaution, deemed fine
The 49ers WR left with a reported hip injury but team officials said he's fine. He appears to have exited as a precaution in a winning effort.
Dowdle's toe injury worsens his outlook
The Steelers RB left with a toe injury, returned briefly, then was pulled again and didn't return. He may have aggravated the injury, putting his Week 3 status in doubt.
Reed carted off with neck injury
The Packers WR was carted off with an ugly neck injury Sunday but can feel all extremities, a good sign. He'll likely miss some time but the prognosis appears better than initially feared.
Goedert's knee injury timing uncertain
The Eagles TE hurt his knee early Sunday and stood on the sideline without his helmet for the rest of the game. With a longer week before Monday Night Football, he has a chance to play Week 3.
Douglas' ankle injury may be precaution
The Dolphins WR had a breakout Week 1 but hurt his ankle in Week 2 after two catches. Miami was getting blown out, so the injury could have been precautionary.
At a glance
Monitor practice reports this week for Jayden Daniels, Caleb Williams, and Dallas Goedert to determine their availability for Week 3.
