Summary
- Marvin Harrison Jr. had appendix surgery, impacting his fantasy availability.
- Joe Burrow is expected to return for the Bengals' Thursday game.
- Dillon Gabriel remains in concussion protocol, giving Shedeur Sanders a start.
Several prominent NFL players are currently sidelined due to various health concerns, creating ripple effects for fantasy football managers. Marvin Harrison Jr. of the Arizona Cardinals is recovering from appendix surgery, making Michael Wilson a strong fantasy start in his absence. The Cincinnati Bengals may soon welcome back quarterback Joe Burrow from a toe injury, potentially for their Thursday night matchup.
Meanwhile, Dillon Gabriel of the Cleveland Browns is still working through the NFL's concussion protocol. This situation allows Shedeur Sanders an opportunity to lead the team this Sunday. Other notable absences include Jayden Reed of the Green Bay Packers, who is managing a foot injury and may require several more weeks to return to the team's receiver depth.
Jaxson Dart of the New York Giants is recovering from a concussion, but Jameis Winston will remain under center for Week 12 as a precautionary measure. Additionally, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton begins an injured reserve stint due to a shin injury, coinciding with Rashid Shaheed's increasing comfort in the offense.
