It is amazing to think that we are already at the final week of most Fantasy regular seasons.
This week brings about the promise for some of a bye, a high playoff seed, or a fight to just keep moving forward.
The Week 13 injury report is here to serve your needs in planning what you will be up against from an injury perspective.
This week is of the utmost importance to some of us.
So let’s get into the nitty gritty of the Week 13 injury report.
Arizona Cardinals
Andre Ellington, RB
Ellington has been ruled out this week with turf toe.
John Brown, WR
Brown is probable this week with his hamstring injury. This is likely to be a weekly thing with Brown for the rest of the season. As always, make sure he is active on Sunday.
Michael Floyd, WR
Floyd was limited all week in practice with his hamstring injury. He is questionable this week, and you will need to monitor his status on Sunday if you intend to use him this week.
Atlanta Falcons
Devonta Freeman, RB
Freeman will return to action this week after his concussion. Fire him up in your lineups.
Leonard Hankerson, WR
Hankerson was placed on injured reserve today.
Baltimore Ravens
Maxx Williams, TE
Williams is out this week with a concussion.
Buffalo Bills
Karlos Williams, RB
Williams is out for this week.
Carolina Panthers
Nothing to report here.
Chicago Bears
Jay Cutler, QB
Cutler was listed as limited on Friday with an illness. While his illness is not expected to keep him out this week, make sure he is active on Sunday.
Marquess Wilson, WR
Wilson is out this week with a foot injury.
Eddie Royal
Royal is listed as questionable this week, but after not practicing at all, finding him active on Sunday would be shocking.
Zach Miller, TE
Miller is questionable with a rib injury. He was limited on Thursday and Friday in practice. His status will need to be monitored this week to be sure he is playing.
Cincinnati Bengals
Tyler Eifert, TE
Eifert is listed as doubtful this week after sustaining a stinger in his neck last week. It is seeming unlikely he will play so you should make a contingency plan.
Cleveland Browns
No major Fantasy players to discuss here, and no that isn’t a jab.
Dallas Cowboys
Tony Romo, QB
Romo is still active on the roster, and therefore is listed on the injury report. This will be the last week that I will include him, he is out.
Denver Broncos
Despite a mile long injury report, Nothing to report here beyond Peyton being out still.
Detroit Lions
Played Thursday night game.
Green Bay Packers
Played Thursday night game.
Houston Texans
Alfred Blue, RB
Blue is probable with a sore back. He is expected to play this week.
Indianapolis Colts
Andrew Luck, QB
Luck remains sidelined, but is moving in a positive direction. He was able to throw this week.
Phillip Dorsett, WR
Dorsett remains out this week, but turning in a limited practice means that he may soon be back on the field.
Jacksonville Jaguars
Allen Hurns, WR
Hurns is out this week with a concussion.
Bryan Walters, WR
Walters is likely a game-time decision this week. It seems as though he will not be filling the void left by Hurns being out this week.
Kansas City Chiefs
No skill position players in danger.
Miami Dolphins
Rishard Matthews, WR
Matthews is out this week with a rib injury.
Minnesota Vikings
Nothing to report for the Vikings.
New England Patriots
Danny Amendola, WR
Amendola is questionable this week. He was able to practice in a limited fashion this week, so he has a chance to play. Check his status on Sunday to make sure he is active.
Julian Edelman, WR
Edleman remains out with a broken bone in his foot.
Rob Gronkowski, TE
Gronkowski is out this week with a knee injury.
New Orleans Saints
Willie Snead, WR
Snead is doubtful this week with an ankle injury. I would not expect him on Sunday, but check his status to be sure.
New York Giants
Larry Donnell, TE
Donnell remains sidelined with a neck injury.
New York Jets
Jets offense should be firing on all cylinders.
Oakland Raiders
Nothing Fantasy relevant to report here.
Philadelphia Eagles
Ryan Mathews, RB
Mathews remains out this week with a concussion.
Pittsburgh Steelers
Heath Miller, TE
Miller is questionable with a rib injury. Miller left last week two different times during the Steelers game with the Seahawks. His injury is definitely serious. I would not expect him this week, and even if he plays, temper expectations.
San Diego Chargers
No skill position injuries to report.
Seattle Seahawks
Marshawn Lynch, RB
Lynch remains out this week after having sports hernia surgery.
San Francisco 49ers
Carlos Hyde, RB
Hyde is still out with a stress fracture in his foot.
St. Louis Rams
Greg Zuerlein, K
Zuerlein is doubtful this week with a groin injury. I would make other plans for a kicker.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Austin Seferian-Jenkins, TE
Seferian-Jenkins has finally been cleared for contact. He may actually wear a jersey in anger this week. Listed as questionable this week, make sure he is actually active before inserting him in your lineup.
Tennessee Titans
Dexter McCluster, RB
McCluster is out this week against the Jaguars.
Washington Redskins
Chris Thompson, RB
Thompson has been limited this week in practice with an AC joint sprain. While he may be able to play, his involvement is in question and his Monday game will make him hard to insert in a lineup.
And we reach the close of the Week 13 injury report. Most of us will be either trying to win the ship, or looking forward to next year and just enjoying football without the worry about scoring after this week. I certainly hope that you are all in the former category. If you are, see you next week with the next injury report.
