Darrell Henderson Injury Update

For those of you who included Henderson (quad) in your Week 13 squad after he was announced active, just know, we feel your pain. He hasn’t recorded a single tick and is in an “urgent” role in a pivotal week for fantasy playoff races. That said, we’ll have to pay more attention to him leading up to the game against Arizona. However, technically he is fit enough to function, we think Henderson will be fit to play this week.

However, if he does play, he will probably at least be confined and share a backyard with Sony Michel, so we rank him as RB24 in standard and RB25 in PPR. Arizona conceded a few big performances to the RBs, but they were mostly a solid defense in front of position.

WEEK 14 STANDARD RANKING:
Midfielder | Run back | Wide receiver | Tight ending | VND / ST | Kicker

Melvin Gordon Injury Update

Gordon (hip) will likely be “questionable” for Week 14 against the Lions, and based on what we’ve seen of Javonte Williams against Kansas City, Denver may not be in a hurry to bring Gordon back into the team. Figure. We’ll have to keep an eye on future practice reports.

Gordon ratings are ours RB14 in standard and RB18 in PPR, as the Lions are giving RB the third most fantasy points per game. If Gordon is eliminated, we’ll definitely put Williams in our top 10 and he’ll have the cap of RB1 overall.

WEEK 14 PPR ASSESSMENT:
Midfielder | Run back | Wide receiver | Tight ending | VND / ST | Kicker

Elijah Mitchell injury update

Mitchell within the tournament’s concussion protocol, as always, we will not speculate on the status of the injury. A concussion is usually simple – he deletes the protocols or he doesn’t. For what it’s worth, he returned to the game Sunday after being hit in the head, but he apparently had concussion-like symptoms on Monday, prompting him to participate in protocol.

The Bengals rank near the top 10 in fantasy points per RB allowed match, so Mitchell is RB10 in standard tournaments and RB9 in PPR . tournaments. If he’s absent, we’re not sure if Jeff Wilson Jr (knee) or JaMycal Hasty will return to the spotlight, but if both are healthy, it could be a committee situation.
