Which QBs have appeared on the injury report this week, and what does that mean for fantasy football managers heading into Week 4?
Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens
After missing practice on Wednesday and Thursday with a back issue, Lamar Jackson was a full participant Sunday. All signs indicate that barring any setback on Saturday or Sunday, Jackson should start against the Denver Broncos on Sunday.
Carson Wentz, Indianapolis Colts
Despite playing in Week 3, injuries to both ankles have limited Carson Wentz throughout practices. He will carry a questionable tag into the weekend but is expected to start against the Miami Dolphins.
Ben Roethlisberger, Pittsburgh Steelers
There were some fears Ben Roethlisberger may not suit up in Week 4 with a pectoral injury after he did not practice Wednesday. However, Roethlisberger was a full participant on Thursday and Friday. He carries no injury status into the weekend.
Injury report updates for the Chicago Bears’ QBs
What is the latest news regarding Chicago’s QBs heading into Week 4?
Justin Fields
Fields has dealt with a thumb injury during practice ahead of Week 4. However, he has been a full participant in each of the three days and is not listed on the injury report heading into the weekend.
Andy Dalton
In contrast, the Bears listed Dalton as questionable. Dalton missed Week 3 with a knee injury that has limited him in every practice this week. According to head coach Matt Nagy, the starting QB will be a game-time decision on Sunday.
TE injury update for Week 4
Which top TEs are causing fantasy football managers anxiety with their presence on the injury report this week?
George Kittle, San Francisco 49ers
Seeing George Kittle listed as questionable is a concern heading into Week 4. The 49ers TE is struggling with a calf problem that has put him on the injury report throughout the week.
However, during media availability Friday, Kittle said it is an issue he has been dealing with since Week 1, and he will do everything he can to be available Sunday. Kittle’s tone appeared optimistic, but fantasy managers of the star tight end will be left sweating until Sunday.
Rob Gronkowski, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
After not participating in practice for a third straight day with a rib injury, Rob Gronkowski was listed as doubtful on Tampa Bay’s injury report. However, on Saturday, ESPN’s Jordan Schultz reported that Gronkowski is out for the Buccaneers Week 4 matchup against the Patriots.
