Isaiah Hodgins Injury Update
Isaiah Hodgins started this past week of practice as a limited participant due to an ankle injury. After managing the minor injury throughout the week, the 24-year-old was left off the final injury report and will be active for the Giants' road matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.
LB Azeez Ojulari (quad) is the only player on the final Giants injury report for the week. He’s listed as questionable to play vs. the Eagles Saturday night in Philly.

The Giants' leading receiver over the last few weeks of the regular season will be ready to roll for the team's third meeting against their division rival. The young receiver will be a popular FLEX option for those playing in DFS tournaments and playoff leagues, even when going against Philadelphia's solid cornerback corps.
Mecole Hardman Injury Update
Mecole Hardman was unable to return to practice this week even after getting an extra week of rest during last week's Wild Card round due to a pelvis injury. The team officially ruled him out for Saturday's game against Jacksonville on Thursday.
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid confirms that WR Mecole Hardman (pelvis) will "most likely be listed as OUT" vs. the Jaguars in the Divisional Round.

Kadarius Toney will continue to operate as the No. 2 option while Hardman is out. Rookie receiver Skyy Moore will be active this week and is likely to see a few snaps, but Toney and JuJu Smith-Schuster are the only Kansas City wide receiver worth starting for fantasy purposes this week.
Jamison Crowder Injury Update
Jamison Crowder had his practice window to return from Injured Reserve due to an ankle injury opened last week on January 11th. The 29-year-old was not activated off the IR and will not play during the Bills' divisional-round matchup against the Bengals on Sunday.
Sean McDermott says that Jamison Crowder won’t play this week.

There is a chance that the veteran receiver will be activated next week if Buffalo advances to the AFC championship game. Khalil Shakir saw an increase in usage last week, as well as veteran Cole Beasley, but fellow slot receiver Isaiah McKenzie returning to the lineup, all Bills slot wide receivers will be risky FLEX options at best against Cincinnati.
Jauan Jennings Injury Update
Jauan Jennings popped up on this past Wednesday's injury report with an ankle injury that made him a limited participant in practice. While the injury is new, the 49ers left him off of the final injury report, and he will be active for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys.
#49ers injury updates: DE Samson Ebukam and WR Jauan Jennings are day to day with ankle injuries
— Josh Dubow (@JoshDubowAP) January 16, 2023
Jennings has been a boom-or-bust fantasy option this season in San Francisco. With so many options ahead of him in the pecking order, the 25-year-old is tough to trust as a FLEX option this weekend. However, due to his explosive nature, he is a cheap DFS dart throw for those playing in tournaments.
Jamal Agnew Injury Update
Jamal Agnew has been dealing with a shoulder injury that has left him as a limited participant in practice. The 27-year-old was limited again this week, and the team officially listed him as questionable for Saturday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Everyone is questionable again! https://t.co/BQ877EQdKa

Agnew played through the injury last week and likely will do so again this weekend. The special teamer was targeted once during last weekend's historic comeback and tallied two yards. He is not a viable fantasy option in DFS or playoff leagues, with the rest of the Jaguars' starting receivers healthy.
