As we enter Week 11 of the fantasy football season, it is crucial to stay updated on player injuries and rankings. This week, numerous injuries could significantly impact fantasy lineups, particularly for key players.
Garrett Wilson, wide receiver for the New York Jets, has been ruled out for Thursday”s game. Although ESPN”s Rich Cimini reported that Wilson could miss three to four weeks, Jets head coach Aaron Glenn expressed skepticism about that timeline. With Wilson sidelined, tight end Mason Taylor may see an uptick in targets, but starting anyone other than Breece Hall carries risk due to the Jets” struggling passing game.
In New England, both Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson are noteworthy. Stevenson has been ruled out, which elevates Henderson”s status to a high-end RB2 after a breakout performance in Week 10. Additionally, Kayshon Boutte missed Week 10, leading to significant production from other receivers, including Stefon Diggs.
The Washington Commanders will be without wideouts Terry McLaurin and Treylon Burks this week. Jayden Daniels remains off IR and could return soon, but Marcus Mariota will start again this week. With the Commanders facing the Dolphins, Mariota”s rushing ability may make him a low-end QB1 option.
In Tampa Bay, coach Todd Bowles indicated that Chris Godwin and Bucky Irving are unlikely to play, despite both returning to practice. If Irving is unavailable, Rachaad White could be a low-end RB2, while Sean Tucker emerges as a flex option. Without Godwin, Tez Johnson is a viable flex and Emeka Egbuka could be a WR1.
Dalton Kincaid, tight end for the Buffalo Bills, is week-to-week with a hamstring injury, pushing Dawson Knox into the top tight end role. Meanwhile, in Houston, C.J. Stroud remains in concussion protocol but has been at the facility, keeping his potential return in play.
Looking at other injuries, Calvin Ridley is affected by Tennessee”s lackluster passing game, and J.K. Dobbins is expected to miss time due to injury, opening opportunities for RJ Harvey and Tyler Badie.
As the weather impacts games, updates will continue to refine player rankings and strategies. For those in fantasy leagues, monitoring these injuries is essential as lineups are finalized.
Stay tuned for further updates as we approach kickoff.
