NFL Injury Report: Tracking Week 4 Fantasy Football Injuries For Notable Stars

Oct 2, 2016

Week 4 of the NFL season begins in London at 9:30 a.m. ET, which forces fantasy football owners to make their lineup decisions earlier than normal.

One of the main injury storylines involves the quarterback position for the New England Patriots. We still don’t know if Jimmy Garoppolo or Jacoby Brissett will start against the Buffalo Bills.

If Garoppolo does play, all of the Patriots’ receivers and tight ends become much more fantasy relevant because he’s already shown this season that he can spread the ball around and put up points. A Brissett-led offense probably would lead to a more run-based attack, which would increase LeGarrette Blount’s value.
