With a 3-4 record, the New York Giants look like a team that's going backwards fast. Monday night's game against the 5-2 Indianapolis Colts will likely be a nightmare matchup for the Giants.

Everything changed for Big Blue, when their star running back Rashad Jennings went down to injury in Week 5 against the Atlanta Falcons. Jennings suffered a sprained knee, and will miss his third consecutive game. The longer Jennings is out, the more the offense will take a dip.

Backup running back Andre Williams doesn't look like the answer as Jennings replacement. He's only averaging 3.1 yards per carry, and is having a tough time getting into the endzone. Williams is a strong runner that can run over the opposition, but his struggles are trying to get any extra yards.

Rashad Jennings injury isn't the only setback for the New York Giants. Cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie is questionable for Monday night's game, because of a hamstring injury. Also not having Jon Beason in the lineup has hurt the Giants tremendously. We can't ignore the fact that Beason hasn't played in all 16 games for the New York Giants for four straight seasons.

Before Jennings went down, he was looking like a pro bowl running back. However, looking at his past, Rashad Jennings has a history of injuries going back to his playing days with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The offense goes through Eli Manning, and so far he's having a good season. However, he needs his offensive weapons if he's going to lead this team to a playoff berth. It also doesn't help that his main target Victor Cruz is out for the season due to a knee injury.

The Indianapolis Colts have one of the most potent offenses in the NFL, and if the Giants don't come prepared, they'll get blown out. In a very competitive NFC East division, the New York Giants need to win these next few games just to stay in the playoff race.

If you enjoy this post, follow @HarutNFL_FFBall for more information, advice, and much more fantasy football related. A couple notes to begin with.

-A.J. Green hinted that he may play more snaps this Thursday against the Browns.

-Giovani Bernard is questionable at best for Thursday, but my guess would be he sits out. Hill still a borderline RB1 if he sits out. It becomes much more tricky if Bernard plays depending on usage as I believe they won't rush him out there.

-Reggie Bush should be good to go after missing the last game in London and resting this bye week. Early reports on Calvin Johnson look good too.

-Charles Sims should be active next week which makes Rainey a risky roll of the dice. Sims is risky too until we know more about the situation.

-There is nothing to worry about with Philip Rivers. He has a bye week and should be good to go; he was taken out because of the score.

Quarterbacks:

Nick Foles, QB, PHI

• Injury: Collarbone
• Status: Out
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Mark Sanchez
• News: Nick Foles left the game against the Texans after starting off pretty well and did not return. Further testing revealed he has a broken collarbone and will be out for quite some time if not all season.
• Fantasy ramification: Sanchez didn't look too bad filling in for Foles so I think he's worth a shot in really deep leagues or two quarterback leagues. He'll be a matchup-based starter at best until we see more out of him, but in Chip Kelly's high powered offense there is some upside here. Keep an eye on this one.

Running Backs:

Arian Foster, RB, HOU

• Injury: Groin
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Alfred Blue
• News: Foster left the game against the Eagles and was visibly frustratd, but did not return.
• Fantasy ramification: This is quite the interesting one. If you are an Arian Foster owner, I would definitely put in a claim for Alfred Blue right now. The Texans have a bye next week so Foster will have two weeks to heal. If you're not a Foster owner, it just depends on your need at this point. The waiver claim could end up going to waste, but we also do know Foster's injury history so worth a shot. Alfred Blue will definitely be the workhorse if Foster misses any time. Further testing may be done so we could get word on Foster's injury severity as early as Monday afternoon.

Lamar Miller, RB, MIA

• Injury: Shoulder
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Damien Williams and Daniel Thomas
• News: Lamar Miller exited the game against the Chargers with a shoulder injury and did not return. It was reported that he even struggled to put a shirt on after the game. He will undergo an MRI Monday morning.
• Fantasy ramification: Lamar Miller's status isn't looking good for Week 10 at this point. MRI should reveal more, but for now Damien Williams and Daniel Thomas will handle duties at the running-back position if Miller misses any time. The problem here is I see Joe Philbin holding a RBBC if Miller misses any time as he did all last season with Miller and Thomas. If I was going to bet on one of them, it would be Daniel Thomas. Note: I wouldn't be betting very much.

Wide Receivers:

Wes Welker, WR, DEN

• Injury: Back
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Cody Latimer
• News: Welker left the game late against the Patriots and did not return, but might have if the game wasn't out of hand.
• Fantasy ramification: Wes Welker wasn't producing much for our fantasy teams to start off with. Even if he does miss time, I don't see any value in Cody Latimer just yet unless you're in a deeper league. Even if Welker does play, he still hasn't show to be much of a factor in any of the Broncos' games after returning.

If you enjoy this post, follow @HarutNFL_FFBall for more information, advice, and much more fantasy football related. First, a couple notes on a few players here and there. Rob Gronkowski did leave the game after his 40+ yard touchdown scamper, but said it was due to dehydration. It was a blowout game and there was no need for him to re-enter, so he will be fine. In addition, Jeremy Maclin and Torrey Smith both went to the locker room during their respective games and returned to the game so no fear there.

Tight Ends:

Aaron Rodgers, QB, GB

• Injury: Hamstring
• Status: Probable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Matt Flynn
• News: Rodgers looked like he tweaked his hamstring after a scramble in the second half of the game against the Saints. He did stay in the game, even in a blowout.
• Fantasy ramification: Rodgers said after the game that he will be fine and will not miss any time due to this injury so fantasy owners can relax. If he did miss any time, Matt Flynn would not be a recommended option.

Running Backs:

Doug Martin, RB, TB

• Injury: Ankle
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Bobby Rainey, Charles Sims
• News: Doug Martin left the game against the Vikings on Sunday with an ankle injury in the 3rd quarter and did not return.
• Fantasy ramification: Doug Martin had another unimpressive effort this past week and is almost borderline droppable in fantasy leagues. Charles Sims is getting ready to finally play a game in his rookie year and should see some touches, but I still view him as a change of pace back due to how most coaches treat rookies these days; especially running-backs. Doug Martin is looking to miss some time and Bobby Rainey is the guy to have as he has looked 10 times as better than Doug Martin. Even when Martin returns, Rainey should be the starter.

Giovani Bernard, RB, CIN

• Injury: Hip
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Jeremy Hill
• News: Bernard exited the game against the Ravens left the game in the fourth quarter and did not return with a hip injury.
• Fantasy ramification: Neither Giovani Bernard or the Bengals' head coach seemed concerned about his injury so he has a solid shot at suiting up next week. Nonetheless, if Jeremy Hill is available in your league, PICK HIM UP. Even if Bernard doesn't miss any time, Hill should be owned in all leagues due to the injury risk Giovani Bernard carries. Not only that, the Bengals should be looking to reduce Bernard's workload after getting banged up the last few weeks so Hill could be a bye-week filler.

Wide Receivers:

Brian Quick, WR, STL

• Injury: Left Arm
• Status: Out
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Kenny Britt and Stedman Bailey
• News: Quick went down early in the game against the Chiefs with an injury and did not return,
• Fantasy ramification: Nether Quick nor head coach Jeff Fisher gave an update on Brian Quick after the game so let's consider him questionable at best and not a good bet to play next week. Either way, he has come back down to earth after a few good games early on, getting bottled up in his last couple games. There's not much value for any receivers on the Rams at this point. In deeper leagues, Britt might be worth a flier.

Nate Washington, WR, TEN

• Injury: AC Joint
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Slot Receiver
• Back-up: Kris Durham
• News: Nate Washington sprained his AC Joint and may miss some time.
• Fantasy ramification: Washington was not a fantasy option in a unreliable Titans offense and neither he or anyone behind him will be. Justin Hunter and Kendall Wright are still the guys to start who are every week dicey WR3 plays. You just got to hope they score touchdowns because they aren't doing much else for you right now.

Tight Ends:

Jordan Cameron, TE, CLE

• Injury: Concussion
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Gary Barnidge
• News: Cameron left the gamea and did not return wtih a concussion.
• Fantasy ramification: Barnidge is in no way a fantasy option as Jordan Cameron barely has been this season anyways. Cameron has a history with concussion so it is a bit worrisome, but it's not like he was producing. If he does play though, he probably plays for your fantasy team with the lack of depth at the tight end position.

Running Backs:

Fred Jackson , RB, BUF

• Injury: Groin
• Status: Out
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Anthony Dixon, Bryce Brown
• News: Fred Jackson left the game against the Vikings early with a groin injury and it's not looking good for him to suit up next week.
• Fantasy ramification: Early reports on Fred Jackson are that he will almost certainly miss a few fames, but it is not expected to be season ending. With Spiller and Jackson out, Anthony Dixon came in and ran well, finishing with 51 yards on 13 carries and catching three passes for 15 yards..  Bryce Brown is also someone to keep an eye on. Brown showed flashes with the Eagles when McCoy went down a few years ago so he's more than capable of succeeding.

C.J. Spiller , RB, BUF

• Injury: Collarbone
• Status: Out
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Anthony Dixon,  Bryce Brown
• News: Spiller, like Fred Jackson, had a nasty injury after a 50+ yard run which was tough to watch. He will be out for season with a broken collarbone according to early reports.
• Fantasy ramification: Bryce Brown and Anthony Dixon are the guys to have. For more on them, see above. (Fred Jackson)

Trent Richardson, RB, IND

• Injury: Hamstring
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Ahmad Bradshaw
• News: Trent Richardson left the game against the Bengals in the 3rd quarter with a hamstring injury.
• Fantasy ramification: Trent Richardson actually looked pretty good early on against the Bengals in this one. He totaled over 100 yards for the first time all year, but unfortunately got hurt late in the game. If he is to miss any time, the only person that gets a fantasy boost is Ahmad Bradshaw who's been one of the top waiver wire pick-ups of the year. Trent is still hard to trust in fantasy and Bradshaw is the guy to have.

James Starks,  RB, GB

• Injury: Ankle
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Back-up
• Back-up: DuJuan Harris
• News: James Starks left the game against the Panthers, but it looked to be precautionary since it was a blowout from the get-go.
• Fantasy ramification: The Packers clearly are giving Starks more time each and every week, but Starks is still more of a change of pace guy and will never be that feature type of 'back. It's unknown how severe his injury is, but if he is to miss any time; I'd bet on Lacy's stock rising more than anyone elses. He isn't startable in fantasy at this point if he does play. He is a touchdown-dependet RB3.

Pierre Thomas,  RB, NO

• Injury: Shoulder
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Committee
• Back-up: Mark Ingram / Khiry Robinson
• News: Pierre Thomas hurt his shoulder early in the game against the Lions, but returned. He got hurt again later in the game and did not return.
• Fantasy ramification: Pierre Thomas has his moments as a fantasy running-back, but isn't reliable whatsoever. He's a touchdown dependent RB3 for the most part and if he misses time, I see Cadet getting some more reps so no one's value suddenly rises in this RBBC in New Orleans.

• Injury: Shoulder
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Committee
• Back-up: Mark Ingram / Khiry Robinson
• News: Pierre Thomas hurt his shoulder early in the game against the Lions, but returned. He got hurt again later in the game and did not return.
• Fantasy ramification: Pierre Thomas has his moments as a fantasy running-back, but isn't reliable whatsoever. He's a touchdown dependent RB3 for the most part and if he misses time, I see Cadet getting some more reps so no one's value suddenly rises in this RBBC in New Orleans.

Running Backs:

Fred Jackson , RB, BUF

• Injury: Groin
• Status: Out
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Anthony Dixon, Bryce Brown
• News: Fred Jackson left the game against the Vikings early with a groin injury and it's not looking good for him to suit up next week.
• Fantasy ramification: Early reports on Fred Jackson are that he will almost certainly miss a few fames, but it is not expected to be season ending. With Spiller and Jackson out, Anthony Dixon came in and ran well, finishing with 51 yards on 13 carries and catching three passes for 15 yards..  Bryce Brown is also someone to keep an eye on. Brown showed flashes with the Eagles when McCoy went down a few years ago so he's more than capable of succeeding.

C.J. Spiller , RB, BUF

• Injury: Collarbone
• Status: Out
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Anthony Dixon,  Bryce Brown
• News: Spiller, like Fred Jackson, had a nasty injury after a 50+ yard run which was tough to watch. He will be out for season with a broken collarbone according to early reports.
• Fantasy ramification: Bryce Brown and Anthony Dixon are the guys to have. For more on them, see above. (Fred Jackson)

Trent Richardson, RB, IND

• Injury: Hamstring
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Ahmad Bradshaw
• News: Trent Richardson left the game against the Bengals in the 3rd quarter with a hamstring injury.
• Fantasy ramification: Trent Richardson actually looked pretty good early on against the Bengals in this one. He totaled over 100 yards for the first time all year, but unfortunately got hurt late in the game. If he is to miss any time, the only person that gets a fantasy boost is Ahmad Bradshaw who's been one of the top waiver wire pick-ups of the year. Trent is still hard to trust in fantasy and Bradshaw is the guy to have.

James Starks,  RB, GB

• Injury: Ankle
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Back-up
• Back-up: DuJuan Harris
• News: James Starks left the game against the Panthers, but it looked to be precautionary since it was a blowout from the get-go.
• Fantasy ramification: The Packers clearly are giving Starks more time each and every week, but Starks is still more of a change of pace guy and will never be that feature type of 'back. It's unknown how severe his injury is, but if he is to miss any time; I'd bet on Lacy's stock rising more than anyone elses. He isn't startable in fantasy at this point if he does play. He is a touchdown-dependet RB3.

Pierre Thomas,  RB, NO

• Injury: Shoulder
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Committee
• Back-up: Mark Ingram / Khiry Robinson
• News: Pierre Thomas hurt his shoulder early in the game against the Lions, but returned. He got hurt again later in the game and did not return.
• Fantasy ramification: Pierre Thomas has his moments as a fantasy running-back, but isn't reliable whatsoever. He's a touchdown dependent RB3 for the most part and if he misses time, I see Cadet getting some more reps so no one's value suddenly rises in this RBBC in New Orleans.

It was a relatively quiet week on the injury front on Sunday and hopefully it continues like this, but here are some of the notable injuries that will affect your fantasy football team. If you enjoy this post, follow @HarutNFL_FFBall for more information, advice, and much more fantasy football related.

Quarterbacks:

Tony Romo, QB, DAL

• Injury: Ribs
• Status: Probable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Brandon Weeden
• News: Romo took a huge shot early in the game against the Seahawks. He was slow to get up, but stayed in the game and looked fine.
• Fantasy ramification: Although Tony Romo finished off the game, he's going to get his ribs checked out early this week. He shouldn't miss anytime and should be good to go as he has played through a rib injury before. Nonetheless, if he does miss any time, Weeden is not a fantasy option.

Running Backs:

Darren Sproles, RB, PHI

• Injury: Knee
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Back-up / Change of pace back
• Back-up: Trey Burton
• News: Sproles had another nice game, but left the game in the third quarter and did not return. He did walk off the field on his own power.
• Fantasy ramification: Darren Sproles may miss an extended period of time. According to reports, the team doctor fears the stability of his ACL & MCL which means Sproles will undergo further testing. It's a wait and see moment, but there is no fantasy ramification at this point because they really do not have any healthy backs except for McCoy and Trey Burton.

Stevan Ridley, RB, NE

• Injury: Knee/ACL
• Status: Doubtful
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Shane Vereen / Brandon Bolden
• News: Ridley exited the game against the Bills and did not return.
• Fantasy ramification: It's initially feared as a torn ACL, but further tests will be done on Monday to confirm. Vereen has been a non-factor for most of the year and this all but boosts his value. Bolden is worth the pick-up in deeper leagues, but not really sure about ten man leagues at this points. Keep in mind, though, this is Belichick we are talking about. Bolden might score four touchdowns for all we know.

Theo Riddick,  RB, DET

• Injury: Hamstring
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Back-up
• Back-up: Reggie Bush / Joique Bell
• News: Theo Riddick re-aggravated a previous injury and did not return to the game against the Vikings.
• Fantasy ramification: Riddick was playing a solid game, but Joique Bell also did really well. Reggie Bush, in addition, said he will definitely play against the Saints in the upcoming week so Riddick has no fantasy value anymore. Bush and Bell are both in the RB2 conversation.

Fozzy Whittaker,  RB, CAR

• Injury: Quad
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Committee
• Back-up: Darren Reaves
• News: Whittaker left the game against the Bengals and did not return, but didn't seem too concerned with the injury afterwards.
• Fantasy ramification: You really don't want any of the Panther running backs at this point. None seem to be doing too much and I should note that Stewart has a solid chance of coming back this upcoming week. Stewart may be worth a plug-and-play shot if you're in need.

Wide Receivers:

Victor Cruz, WR, NYG

• Injury: Torn patellar tendon
• Status: Out
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Rueben Randle / Odell Beckham JR.
• News: Victor Cruz did not return to the game after tearing his patellar tendon on a non-contact injury. He will be out for the season, most likely.
• Fantasy ramification: Well, first and foremost, it was sad to see Cruz go off like that. But in the fantasy world, we have to move on and talk about replacements. Rueben Randle and Odell Beckham are now MUST haves in the fantasy world. I know they struggled Sunday night, but they should turn it around and have a nice season. Rueben Randle also gets a ton of red-zone looks. I prefer Randle over Beckham Jr. at this point in time.

Eddie Royal, WR, SD

• Injury: Ribs
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Slot Receiver
• Back-up: Malcom Floyd / Seyi Ajirotutu
• News: Royal left the game against the Raiders and did not return.
• Fantasy ramification: Royal was actuall having a pretty solid season thus far and was a solid WR3, but it's now a wait-and-see moment here in seeing how he heals. In the meantime, Ajirotutu will replace him who isn't a fantasy option at all. Floyd, Allen, and Gates all get a slight boost.

Quarterbacks:

Drew Stanton, QB, ARI

• Injury: Concussion
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Logan Thomas
• News: Drew Stanton was knocked out of the game against Denver after taking a shot to the head and was later diagnosed with a concussion.
• Fantasy ramification: The fantasy appeal here is low. Logan Thomas looked decent in relief and until proven otherwise, neither of these guys are fantasy options. The player to watch in Arizona is how Carson Palmer is progressing because it is hurting everyone's value out in Arizona at this point.

Jake Locker, QB, TEN

• Injury: Thumb
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Charle Whitehurst
• News: Jake Locker got hurt yet again against the Browns this week and did not return to the game. He had x-rays on his thumb which came back clean and is slated for an MRI on Monday.
• Fantasy ramification: Locker was never a fantasy option and neither will Whitehurst be. I don't think either of the quarterbacks starting affect any of the fantasy appeal around them. Nothing to see here from a fantasy standpoint.

Running Backs:

Reggie Bush, RB, DET

• Injury: Ankle
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Joique Bell / George Winn
• News: Reggie Bush suffered an ankle injury against the Bills and downplayed it afterwards, but did say he'll take a wait and see approach so his status is in question.
• Fantasy ramification: There may be quite a bit of shifting going around in this backfield. If Bush can't go, Joique Bell will be the primary back, assuming he goes. Bell was cleared for activities late in the week, but was inactive; most likely due to missed practice time. He should be good to go, but if neither of these backs are good to go, George Winn will probably be the guy. Bell will be an RB2 if Bush can't go.

Rashad Jennings, RB, NYG

• Injury: Knee
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Andre Williams
• News: Rashad Jennings exited the matchup with the Falcons with a knee injury and did not return.
• Fantasy ramification: Andre Williams looked great in relief of Rashad Jennings which doesn't please Jennings owners at this point. Jennings had a great matchup with the Falcons and unfortunately got a bit banged up. He will have an MRI on Monday to see if there is any further damage. It's a wait and see game here, but Andre Williams is definitely worth the add at this point as we await news. They may start using him some more as well.

Montee Ball,  RB, DEN

• Injury: Groin
• Status: Doubtful
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Ronnie Hillman / C.J. Anderson
• News: Montee Ball left the game against the Cardinals after not doing much and did not return. Early reports are that he will be out "for a while" which certainly isn't good news.
• Fantasy ramification: Ronnie Hillman has to be the top waiver wire pick-up of the week now. Ball's chances aren't looking good and he hasn't done much to prove he'll assume the starting role when/if he does come back. Hillman is the better add, but Anderson is a player to own as well. Hillman was working as the change of pace back with Ball healthy and should assume most of the work in the backfield as it stands.

Donald Brown,  RB, SD

• Injury: Concussion
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Branden Oliver
• News: Donald Brown left the game against the Jets with a concussion injury after taking a hit to the head.
• Fantasy ramification: The UDFA made his name known on Sunday even when Brown was still in. Oliver is a strong add in all leagues at this point as he was clearly the better back on Sunday. Even if Donald Brown plays, Oliver should get quite some work. He's a small, but strong back that had over 150 total yards and two touchdowns against a tough Jets defense.

Zac Stacy,  RB, STL

• Injury: Calf
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Benny Cunningham
• News: Stacy left the game against the Eagles with a calf injury and it appeared serious as he was quickly ruled out of the game.
• Fantasy ramification: The Rams like both their running-backs and this is awful news for both Zac Stacy and his fantasy owners. Cunningham will be a hot waiver wire pick-up as well as we wait and see what happesn with Stacy. Stacy was having a pretty nice game, but shortly after his exit, Cunningham scored a touchdown for the Rams and we may be seeing more of that soon. Like Montee Ball, Stacy could lose his job if he is to miss an extended amount of time.

Fred Jackson,  RB, BUF

• Injury: Sprained Ankle
• Status: Probable
• Depth Chart: Timeshare with C.J. Spiller
• Back-up: C.J. Spiller
• News: Fred Jackson apparently sprained his ankle late in the game against the Lions, but finished the game.
• Fantasy ramification: If Fred Jackson misses any time, Spiller is an automatic RB2 with upside, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Fred Jackson should be fine as he finished the game and is a strong RB2 in PPR formats and a RB2/Flex in standard formats.

Wide Receivers:

Calvin Johnson, WR, DET

• Injury: Ankle
• Status: Questionable At Best
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Golden Tate / Jeremy Ross
• News: Calvin Johnson looked like a decoy yet again and on his lone catchgot hurt bad and did not return.
• Fantasy ramification: Calvin Johnson hasn't done his fantasy owners any favors after his huge week one outing and it's not looking good for him to suit up next week against the Vikings. Golden Tate automatically becomes a WR3 with upside. The severity of his ankle injury is not known yet, but don't count on him for the time being as he hasn't done much these past few weeks although he's been active. Jeremy Ross would be an interesting add if Calvin misses some time, but he isn't a reccommended fantasy option at this point.

Danny Amendola, WR, NE

• Injury: Head
• Status: Probable
• Depth Chart: Slot Receiver
• Back-up: Aaron Dobson
• News: Cecil Shorts left the game against the Chargers with another hamstring injury.
• Fantasy ramification: Danny Amendola left the game briefly and was being evaluated for a possible concussion, but passed all his tests and was cleared to return. No fantasy appeal here either way. The Patriots just haven't used him enough or looked at him at all in the first five weeks.

Malcom Floyd, WR, SD

• Injury: Calf
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Eddie Royal
• News: Malcom Floyd left the game against the Jets after a calf injury and didn't return.
• Fantasy ramification: Eddie Royal's value, despite having an off game, seems to have just gone up if Floyd misses some time. Either way, Royal has been playing more and more snaps each week. People will point to his fluky couple of games last year, but this year may be different. Hang onto Royal if you have him, and pick him up if you don't. He's a WR4 with upside and a WR3 if Floyd misses time.

Tight Ends:

Jimmy Graham, TE, NO

• Injury: Shoulder
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Benjamin Watson
• News: Jimmy Graham got hurt early against the Buccaneers and returned for a couple of plays, but couldn't handle the pain and left for good.
• Fantasy ramification: The good news is Jimmy Graham will have the bye week to get healthier. Early reports suggest that the injury isn't believed to be too serious which is also good news. If he does miss time, Benjamin Watson could be a streamer option at an extremely weak tight end position.

It's a wait and see game here, but Andre Williams is definitely worth the add at this point as we await news. They may start using him some more as well.

Montee Ball,  RB, DEN

• Injury: Groin
• Status: Doubtful
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Ronnie Hillman / C.J. Anderson
• News: Montee Ball left the game against the Cardinals after not doing much and did not return. Early reports are that he will be out "for a while" which certainly isn't good news.
• Fantasy ramification: Ronnie Hillman has to be the top waiver wire pick-up of the week now. Ball's chances aren't looking good and he hasn't done much to prove he'll assume the starting role when/if he does come back. Hillman is the better add, but Anderson is a player to own as well. Hillman was working as the change of pace back with Ball healthy and should assume most of the work in the backfield as it stands.

Donald Brown,  RB, SD

• Injury: Concussion
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Branden Oliver
• News: Donald Brown left the game against the Jets with a concussion injury after taking a hit to the head.
• Fantasy ramification: The UDFA made his name known on Sunday even when Brown was still in. Oliver is a strong add in all leagues at this point as he was clearly the better back on Sunday. Even if Donald Brown plays, Oliver should get quite some work. He's a small, but strong back that had over 150 total yards and two touchdowns against a tough Jets defense.

Zac Stacy,  RB, STL

• Injury: Calf
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Benny Cunningham
• News: Stacy left the game against the Eagles with a calf injury and it appeared serious as he was quickly ruled out of the game.
• Fantasy ramification: The Rams like both their running-backs and this is awful news for both Zac Stacy and his fantasy owners. Cunningham will be a hot waiver wire pick-up as well as we wait and see what happesn with Stacy. Stacy was having a pretty nice game, but shortly after his exit, Cunningham scored a touchdown for the Rams and we may be seeing more of that soon. Like Montee Ball, Stacy could lose his job if he is to miss an extended amount of time.

Fred Jackson,  RB, BUF

• Injury: Sprained Ankle
• Status: Probable
• Depth Chart: Timeshare with C.J. Spiller
• Back-up: C.J. Spiller
• News: Fred Jackson apparently sprained his ankle late in the game against the Lions, but finished the game.
• Fantasy ramification: If Fred Jackson misses any time, Spiller is an automatic RB2 with upside, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Fred Jackson should be fine as he finished the game and is a strong RB2 in PPR formats and a RB2/Flex in standard formats.

Wide Receivers:

Calvin Johnson, WR, DET

• Injury: Ankle
• Status: Questionable At Best
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Golden Tate / Jeremy Ross
• News: Calvin Johnson looked like a decoy yet again and on his lone catchgot hurt bad and did not return.
• Fantasy ramification: Calvin Johnson hasn't done his fantasy owners any favors after his huge week one outing and it's not looking good for him to suit up next week against the Vikings. Golden Tate automatically becomes a WR3 with upside. The severity of his ankle injury is not known yet, but don't count on him for the time being as he hasn't done much these past few weeks although he's been active. Jeremy Ross would be an interesting add if Calvin misses some time, but he isn't a reccommended fantasy option at this point.

Danny Amendola, WR, NE

• Injury: Head
• Status: Probable
• Depth Chart: Slot Receiver
• Back-up: Aaron Dobson
• News: Cecil Shorts left the game against the Chargers with another hamstring injury.
• Fantasy ramification: Danny Amendola left the game briefly and was being evaluated for a possible concussion, but passed all his tests and was cleared to return. No fantasy appeal here either way. The Patriots just haven't used him enough or looked at him at all in the first five weeks.

Malcom Floyd, WR, SD

• Injury: Calf
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Eddie Royal
• News: Malcom Floyd left the game against the Jets after a calf injury and didn't return.
• Fantasy ramification: Eddie Royal's value, despite having an off game, seems to have just gone up if Floyd misses some time. Either way, Royal has been playing more and more snaps each week. People will point to his fluky couple of games last year, but this year may be different. Hang onto Royal if you have him, and pick him up if you don't. He's a WR4 with upside and a WR3 if Floyd misses time.

Tight Ends:

Jimmy Graham, TE, NO

• Injury: Shoulder
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Benjamin Watson
• News: Jimmy Graham got hurt early against the Buccaneers and returned for a couple of plays, but couldn't handle the pain and left for good.
• Fantasy ramification: The good news is Jimmy Graham will have the bye week to get healthier. Early reports suggest that the injury isn't believed to be too serious which is also good news. If he does miss time, Benjamin Watson could be a streamer option at an extremely weak tight end position.

Quarterbacks:

Drew Stanton, QB, ARI

• Injury: Concussion
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Logan Thomas
• News: Drew Stanton was knocked out of the game against Denver after taking a shot to the head and was later diagnosed with a concussion.
• Fantasy ramification: The fantasy appeal here is low. Logan Thomas looked decent in relief and until proven otherwise, neither of these guys are fantasy options. The player to watch in Arizona is how Carson Palmer is progressing because it is hurting everyone's value out in Arizona at this point.

Jake Locker, QB, TEN

• Injury: Thumb
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Charle Whitehurst
• News: Jake Locker got hurt yet again against the Browns this week and did not return to the game. He had x-rays on his thumb which came back clean and is slated for an MRI on Monday.
• Fantasy ramification: Locker was never a fantasy option and neither will Whitehurst be. I don't think either of the quarterbacks starting affect any of the fantasy appeal around them. Nothing to see here from a fantasy standpoint.

Running Backs:

Reggie Bush, RB, DET

• Injury: Ankle
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Joique Bell / George Winn
• News: Reggie Bush suffered an ankle injury against the Bills and downplayed it afterwards, but did say he'll take a wait and see approach so his status is in question.
• Fantasy ramification: There may be quite a bit of shifting going around in this backfield. If Bush can't go, Joique Bell will be the primary back, assuming he goes. Bell was cleared for activities late in the week, but was inactive; most likely due to missed practice time. He should be good to go, but if neither of these backs are good to go, George Winn will probably be the guy. Bell will be an RB2 if Bush can't go.

Rashad Jennings, RB, NYG

• Injury: Knee
• Status: Questionable
• Depth Chart: Starter
• Back-up: Andre Williams
• News: Rashad Jennings exited the matchup with the Falcons with a knee injury and did not return.
• Fantasy ramification: Andre Williams looked great in relief of Rashad Jennings which doesn't please Jennings owners at this point. Jennings had a great matchup with the Falcons and unfortunately got a bit banged up. He will have an MRI on Monday to see if there is any further damage. It's a wait and see game here, but Andre Williams is definitely worth the add at this point as we await news. They may start using him some more as well.
