Fantasy Football Week 15: Injury Report
QB Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys - Romo hurt his thumb in Week 15 during the Cowboys’ loss against the Philadelphia Eagles. He kept playing but the injury obviously limited his effectiveness. He went without a touchdown against a defense which hasn’t proven to be overly great this season. If Romo further injures his thumb, Brad Johnson is next in line to be quarterback for Dallas.
QB Kellen Clemens, New York Jets - Clemens left the game against the New England Patriots with a rib injury. While Clemens has shown some signs of having the potential to be a good player, he isn’t a fantasy viable player at this point in his career. If he misses Week 16, Chad Pennington will get the start. With Pennington at the helm, the Jets’ offense might actually be slightly better.
QB Kyle Boller, Baltimore Ravens - Boller suffered a mild concussion and was forced to miss the end of the game against the Miami Dolphins. The Ravens ended up losing to give the Dolphins their first win of the season. Troy Smith is the backup quarterback and he’s looked good in limited snaps. Smith could be called upon to start this upcoming week.
RB Justin Fargas, Oakland Raiders - Fargas suffered a knee sprain against the Indianapolis Colts. He has been one of the real surprises this season. Coming into this year, he wasn’t much of a fantasy option but he’s proven to be able to handle the load. If he misses time expect either Dominic Rhodes or LaMont Jordan to start at running back for the Raiders.
TE Jeremy Shockey, New York Giants - Shockey fractured his fibula and is expected to miss the rest of the season. Shockey hasn’t had a very productive season in the fantasy football world. Other than one big week, Shockey has been quiet. If you have Shockey, hopefully you have a decent backup because you are going to need a new starter at this point.
