Aaron Jones Injury Update
Jones was listed as a limited participant during the Packers' estimated practice reports on both Monday and Tuesday. He now has one more opportunity to get back on the field Wednesday before Green Bay is forced to add more clarity in regard to his status. As long as Jones is healthy, he should be viewed as a strong RB1 option in fantasy football.
Najee Harris Injury Update
Harris (knee) is dealing with discomfort, but the injury isn't expected to cause him to miss any game time. The second-year back has underachieved in 2022, but he did give fantasy managers some optimism by rushing for a season-high 99 yards on Sunday. At the same time, he was held without a catch in that same contest.
Leonard Fournette Injury Update
Fournette (hip) suffered a hip pointer during Sunday's win in Germany. Although the ailment is painful, he is not expected to miss any game time, partly thanks to Tampa Bay's conveniently placed Week 11 bye. With that said, Fournette has appeared to lose grasp of the starting job as Rachaad White continues to earn more touches. As a result, the veteran falls to the RB3 tier going forward.
Khalil Herbert Injury Update
Herbert (hip) has been placed on injured reserve and will miss four games. Technically No. 2 on the Bears' running back depth chart, Herbert has run better than backfield-mate David Montgomery but worse than quarterback Justin Fields to this point. His absence going forward means that Chicago will have to rely on a larger dose of Montgomery, plus some Trestan Ebner sprinkled in here and there.
Gus Edwards Injury Update
In regards to Edwards' (hamstring) status for Week 11, Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that the team "will see how he progresses throughout the week." The 27-year-old last played in Week 8 when he rushed 11 times for 65 yards before exiting. When healthy, Edwards should serve as the Ravens' lead back, making him a fringe RB2 in fantasy football.
