As we look towards Week 12 of the NFL season, several teams are struggling with key injuries that may impact upcoming games. At SICscore.com, we provide expert insights from Dr. David Chao, MD (@ProFootballDoc) and other top sports doctors to help fans and analysts understand the impact of these injuries on the player and team.
Has now officially been ruled out of W12 action with the shoulder injury he sustained last week, his next chance to play will be Week 13 against the Bills.
Listed as questionable with a groin injury for Sunday's game against the Vikings, he did log a full practice on Friday, he is considered more likely than not to play with the upgraded practice session on Friday.
We said since the beginning of the season Pacheco will be back in December, one more week of November games in Week 12, this is his second week of the practice window, expect another week in the practice window before he returns but Pacheco will be back for the Chiefs in December just not quite yet.
He might make his return in Week 12, and if he does, we don't expect him to be as productive as he's been in his career, Chuba Hubbard will still be the main running back for Carolina.
Will make his return after a 4-week absence from a hamstring strain this Sunday vs the Giants, however, head coach Todd Bowles has indicated that he may be on a snap restriction so don't expect a full workload or production out of Evans.
He should be able to play through his injury, by video analysis, he has an AC joint sprain, he already returned to the last game, likely with an injection and padding, he should be able to return and play through on MNF in W12 and be a weapon for Justin Herbert. After a DNP on Thursday, McConkey did log a limited session on Friday, it was likely pre-cautionary and his chances of being available on Sunday for W12 against the Ravens on MNF are fairly high.
Is expected to be back in the lineup for Week 12 at Indianapolis, according to head coach Dan Campbell “He's been good”, regarding the shoulder injury he was dealing with, he was a full participant in practice on Thursday and Friday, increasing the likelihood of his availability.
Kittle says he's going to play, we shouldn't believe that all he had was hamstring tightness, we believe he had a hamstring strain, he is as tough as they come and he has played through injuries before, besides he has a lot of value in the run game blocking scheme, he’s not just a downfield threat, we expect him to play against the Packers but he may not be 100% with his hamstring strain.
