Fantasy Football Week 17: Injury Updates
QB Brodie Croyle, Kansas City Chiefs
Croyle hurt his hand after throwing an interception and trying to make a tackle. It’s been that type of year for Croyle who entered the season with high expectations but has basically fallen on his face. There’s still a chance he’ll play in Week 17 but even if he does you don’t want any part of Croyle on your fantasy football team.
RB Kevin Jones, Detroit Lions
Jones has looked good this season whenever the Lions have decided to run the ball. But he suffered yet another devastating injury when he tore his ACL in Week 16. For a guy who was looking so good lately, this is a serious blow. There’s a chance that he won’t be ready to start next year and will instead be sidelined to begin the season – just as he was this year.
WR Terrell Owens, Dallas Cowboys
Owens suffered a high ankle sprain that could seriously dampen the Cowboys championship hopes. Owens won’t play in Week 17 and there’s a chance he won’t be ready for the Cowboys’ first playoff game. If that’s the case, the Cowboys’ high octane offense could be derailed with just one twist of an ankle. The good news is that Owens has a history of recovering quickly, which might allow him to be 100% by the time the playoffs roll around for Dallas.
TE Quinn Sypniewski, Baltimore Ravens
The Ravens have had horrible luck regarding their tight ends this year. Todd Heap and Daniel Wilcox have struggled with injuries all year. Sypniewski has been decent when given playing time but now even he’s hurt. He suffered multiple injuries in Week 16 that should keep him out of action in Week 17. If he’s out, there’s no telling who will play tight end for the Ravens this coming week.
