As we Week 10 of the NFL season enters it's final stages with just the Sunday night football and Monday night football games to go we take a quick look around the league to provide you with the most up-to-date injury news from around the league including Zach Ertz, Cooper Kupp, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Jerry Jeudy and more. This week the list is short but unfortunately there are few impact names that went down this week that will likely be sending fantasy football managers to their fantasy football waiver wire this week for some replacement options.

 

 

NFL Wide Receiver Injury Updates

Leonard Fournette, RB Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Hip)

Fournette suffered a hip injury during the Buccaneers win over the Seattle Seahawks. The status of Fournette will likely be coming in the next few days but rookie Rachaad White filled in and had himself a strong game in the second-half of the contest after Fournette exited. White would be a must add in all formats should Fournette miss extended time.

Khalil Herbert, RB Chicago Bears (Hip)

Herbert suffered a hip injury towards the end of the Bears win against the Lions and was quickly ruled out. There was no immediate update given towards his status after the game so fantasy managers will need to stay tuned.

NFL Wide Receiver Injury Updates

Cooper Kupp, WR Los Angeles Rams (Ankle)

Fantasy managers had to deal with an injury scare to Cooper Kupp a few weeks back but were fortunate to not have him miss any time. Unfortunately they may not escape that fate this time around as Kupp again went down with with is being deemed an ankle injury by the team reports. 

After the game Rams head coach Sean McVay told reports he didn't have any updates on Cooper Kupp but that he suffered an ankle injury and that while he hasn't talked to the medical staff this it “didn't look good and didn't sound good”. 

Van Jefferson will become a popular waiver wire add this week if Kupp is to miss extended time.

JuJu Smith-Schuster, WR Kansas City Chiefs (Concussion)

It was a scary scene in Kansas City this afternoon as Smith-Schuster attempted to make a play on a ball thrown in the middle of the field and took a crushing blow which knocked him unconscious. The now all-too obvious signs of head trauma were immediate as Smith-Schuster's arms were out stiff. After a few moments down on the field he was eventually helped off the field and taken to the locker room. 

With the leagues new emphasis on concussion protocols following the Tua Tagovailoa incident fantasy managers should likely expect to be without Smith-Schuster for Week 11.  Kadarius Toney becomes a must-add off the waiver wire where he is available. 

Jerry Jeudy, WR Denver Broncos (Ankle)

Jeudy went down early in the Broncos loss to the Titans today with an ankle injury. There have been no immediate updates on Jeudy's status but head coach Nathaniel Hackett told reporters that the team will further evaluate his injury but that they team was hopeful that he may have avoided a serious injury.

 

NFL Tight End Injury Updates

Zach Ertz, TE Arizona Cardinals (Knee)

Tough news here with Ertz suffering a knee injury during the team's Week 10 win over the Rams. After the game reports stated that Ertz was seen wearing a brace. The team feels that the ACL was not damaged but Ertz will require an MRI to get the full extent of the injury.
