Welcome, everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. I'm your host, Justin Boone.

0:18.7

Appreciate you tuning in today for another Friday show, second last Friday show of the season. And we're going to over all the notable injuries as quick as we possibly can here. Because if you've made it this far in the fantasy season, I'm sure you're staying on top of this stuff yourself. And also, because it's the holidays. So you likely have better things going on in your life that you want to tend to.

0:37.6

Maybe not, though. With all the bad weather this week, could be a lot of plans that get canceled here. Fingers crossed, that's not the case. Maybe you are bunkered down for the next couple days. Maybe you're excited about that. Either way, we're going to get you caught up on all the injury updates. And I mentioned the weather. If you haven't already, go back, listen to Wednesday show with John Daigle.

0:55.1

We get John's thoughts on all the different games that could be impacted by the elements this week. So you can go back. You can check that one out. But let's get to the injuries here. We will start with quarterbacks. And we talked about this one all week. Jalen Hertz officially out for week 16 now so garder minchu's going to get the

1:12.3

start and he was my recommended pickup in the qb section of the waiver war column on monday so i'm not

1:17.4

going to rehash it too much here but even in a bad matchup minchu has the skills he's got the talent

1:22.9

around him he could produce a solid fantasy day for you so he's a quality high-end QB2 streamer against

1:28.3

the Cowboys. Now, there was some hope last week and even early this week that Lamar Jackson

1:34.0

could return for this game, but he wasn't able to practice. He ultimately got ruled out again. And

1:39.7

so the Ravens are going to go with Tyler Huntley one more time. And he was a little limited in practice early in the week two of the shoulder issue, but he's good to go. He's going to get another start here. And he really hasn't done too much. He stepped in these last few games. I know he got hurt at one point, but he really hasn't put up any big score. So he's a low end QB2 streamer in what should be a pretty decent matchup against

2:02.0

the Falcons Ryan Tannahill he is out for the Titans he's got that ankle injury he's going to be

2:07.5

replaced by Malik Willis and Willis just he shouldn't be on the fantasy radar for you he is not

2:12.6

an option the Titans they're going to try to beat the Texans in spite of having to start Willis here. He's really not going to give them much. Even with all the rushing ability, it's not going to be enough to make up for the fact that he has just struggled to move the ball through the air so far and the chances that he's gotten. So that hurts all the Titans receiving options. Even Chigaconquo, he's going to get bumped down to more of a tight end to

2:34.4

streamer and that's especially because Traylon Berks I'm going to spoil this

2:38.4

because we're going to talk about him a little bit in the receiver section

2:40.8

we get to it but Traylon Berks is expected to return as well this week I just have

2:45.7

a hard time starting either guy I think you basically have to hope for a big play

2:49.6

or a touchdown or something like

2:51.6

that to save their fantasy day because the volume's just not going to be there with Willis

2:56.0

under center. The Cardinals, they officially ruled out Colt McCoy too. So they're down to Trace

3:01.1

McSorley. He's just a low-end QB2 streamer at best. He's also somebody that I would rather

3:06.2

avoid, even in two quarterback or
