NFL Injuries: Dart Out, Burrow Questionable, Week 12 Fantasy Impact

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones will not participate in their Week 12 contest against the Detroit Lions.

Acting head coach Mike Kafka mentioned Jones’s absence of advancement through concussion protocol as the explanation he will sit out this week, rather than the group practicing extreme care.

Dart had restricted involvement in practice on Wednesday and Thursday and remains in protocol.

The rookie quarterback was absent from last week’s defeat to the Green Bay Packers following a concussion sustained in Week 10 versus the Chicago Bears.

Having endured numerous impacts during his initial NFL season and requiring four concussion assessments, the Ole Miss player has reportedly been advised by individuals both inside and outside the organization to exercise greater caution while running with the ball and to prioritize self-protection.

Dart has showcased a notable commencement to his NFL journey with the Giants. Across nine matches, he has amassed 1,417 passing yards accompanied by 10 touchdowns and three interceptions. He has similarly demonstrated efficiency in ground plays, securing 317 rushing yards and seven touchdowns — both figures leading among rookies.

Could Joe Burrow return this week? Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor suggested on Friday that they will delay their decision as much as possible regarding the quarterback’s participation in Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots.

“Feel at ease postponing this decision for as long as feasible,” Taylor stated, as conveyed by The Athletic’s Paul Dehner.

Burrow, who underwent toe surgery on Sept. 19, remains on injured reserve, with the team required to transition him to the active roster by 4 p.m. on Saturday.

“He’s maximized his efforts. He appears in excellent condition,” Taylor remarked. “The anticipation is for a favorable response upon tackling, yet uncertainty remains … coupled with two games within five days, necessitating consideration.”

Burrow has been categorized as “questionable.”

Additional noteworthy Week 12 injuries:

  • Aaron Rodgers is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Bears as he manages a fractured left wrist. One day after head coach Mike Tomlin indicated Rodgers wouldn’t need surgery, the veteran was observed wearing a brace as a limited participant in Thursday’s practice.

  • David Njoku has been sidelined since Week 4 but is “progressing positively,” according to Tampa head coach Todd Bowles. The running back has been recovering from foot and shoulder injuries, but recently rejoined practice. Bowles commented that Njoku “struggled with” the unfamiliar experience of being injured in the NFL, and they are targeting Week 13 against the Cardinals for a potential return.

  • Josh Jacobs has communicated that any absence would be limited to a single game. The Green Bay Packers running back sustained a knee injury during the previous week’s victory over the Giants and resumed practice on Thursday in a restricted capacity after sitting out Wednesday. He’s been dealing with swelling and stiffness in the knee. He is listed as “questionable.”

    Despite running back Kenneth Walker III’s presence on Seattle’s injury report with a glute injury, head coach Mike Macdonald informed reporters on Friday that Walker is likely to participate on Sunday, contingent on no significant setbacks.

    “We are currently prioritizing his care for today. It is merely a precautionary measure,” Macdonald conveyed during a press conference. “Presumably, he will be in suitable condition.”

    Walker, unequivocally the Seahawks’ leading rusher, is presently categorized as “questionable” for Sunday’s match against the Titans.

    Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III has been classified as questionable for Sunday’s contest against the Tennessee Titans. According to ESPN’s Brady Henderson, the injury is reportedly a new development, and this marks his initial appearance on the injury report.

    Should Walker be unavailable, anticipate Zach Charbonnet to assume the majority of carrying duties. Charbonnet has accumulated 105 carries resulting in 350 yards and six touchdowns.

    Following an absence from practice on Wednesday due to an ankle injury, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has been removed from the injury report for Week 12. Jackson engaged in full practice sessions on both Thursday and Friday, and consequently, he carries no injury designation for Sunday’s clash against the Jets.

  • Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs is officially listed as questionable due to a knee injury for Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings.

    Jacobs participated in practice for the second consecutive day with limitations, and according to The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman, head coach Matt LaFleur indicated that Jacobs’s condition is improving.

    Jacobs sustained the knee injury last week during the match against the New York Giants, concluding with seven carries for 40 yards. In the event that Jacobs is unable to play on Sunday, Emanuel Wilson is expected to take over the majority of carrying responsibilities. The Packers are scheduled to play the Lions on Thanksgiving following Sunday’s game.

    Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is officially “questionable” to participate in Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bears, according to head coach Mike Tomlin.

    “We’ll monitor the situation as the weekend progresses,” Tomlin communicated, as reported by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

    Rodgers sustained a fractured left wrist late in the second quarter during a victory over the Cincinnati Bengals the previous week. The injury affects his non-throwing hand and does not require surgery, according to Tomlin.

    The 41-year-old signal-caller was absent from practice on Wednesday, while he participated in a limited capacity on both Thursday and Friday.

    If Rodgers is unable to participate against the Bears, backup Mason Rudolph is expected to assume the starting position.

    New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson and wide receiver Kayshon Boutte have been authorized to play and are projected to participate in Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals, as relayed by head coach Mike Vrabel to reporters.

    Stevenson has been absent from the previous three games due to a toe injury, which he sustained in Week 8 during a match against the Cleveland Browns. This season, he has 83 carries resulting in 279 yards and three touchdowns.

    In his absence, rookie back TreVeyon Henderson has experienced a heightened workload. Henderson delivered a standout performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, accumulating 14 carries for 147 yards and two touchdowns. So far this season, he has 100 carries resulting in 492 yards and five touchdowns, leading the Patriots across all three rushing statistical categories.

    Boutte has missed the last two games stemming from a hamstring injury incurred in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons. Preceding the injury, Boutte was pacing toward his most successful season, recording 23 catches for 431 yards and holding the team’s highest number of receiving touchdowns with five. Wide receivers Stefon Diggs, Mack Hollins, Demario Douglas, and tight end Hunter Henry have notably augmented their contributions in his absence.

    Despite Cleveland Browns quarterback Dillon Gabriel (concussion) returning to practice on Friday, he is ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Las Vegas Raiders, as confirmed by ESPN Browns reporter Daniel Oyefusi.

    Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski communicated that Gabriel has not completed the concussion protocol. Gabriel suffered an injury in last week’s game versus the Baltimore Ravens. Since succeeding former Browns quarterback Joe Flacco in Week 5, the rookie quarterback has passed for 937 yards, throwing seven touchdowns and two interceptions.

    Shedeur Sanders is scheduled to initiate his inaugural career start in Gabriel’s stead. Sanders completed 4 of 16 passes for 47 yards, accompanied by one interception, against the Ravens. Bailey Zappe is slated to serve as Sanders’ backup.

    Offensive tackle Jack Conklin (knee), wide receiver Jamari Thrash (foot), and defensive end Alex Wright (quad) are also labeled as questionable. It is reported that Myles Garrett, presently dealing with an illness, along with David Njoku (knee), are expected to participate.

    The Browns are positioned last in the AFC North with a record of 2-8.
