I'm your host, Justin Boone.

Appreciate you joining me today.

1:18.1

We're going to get you caught up on all the injuries from week 14. Then we're going to turn our attention here to week 15 and the top waiver ads you can make before the first week of the fantasy playoffs. If you're listening, I'm guessing that means that you made the fantasy playoffs. So congrats on that. I only missed the playoffs in one league that I'm in. Came down to point scored I think I was the fourth highest scoring team in the league, but sadly not higher than the team that I was tied with for sixth place.

1:27.0

And to make matters worse, I lost my matchup this week by just five points. Had I won that game, I would have been in since I didn't went to the point tiebreaker.

2:02.7

What can you do? We can't win them all, But like I talked about on Friday's live show, still hurts when you come up short, especially when it's that close. But either way, lots to go over here for week 15. And we'll start with the injuries from Sunday. A bunch of big-name quarterbacks to talk about here. Lamar Jackson was the first. He injured his ankle. according to John Harbaugh today, it's not a high ankle sprain. It sure looked pretty scary when he got carted off the field there. But Harbaugh said the team is still planning to start him this week. Obviously, that could change as the week goes along if he doesn't heal as fast as they hope, all that sort of stuff. But even if he does suit up here, you have to expect that he's going to be a little less dynamic in the running game, not have as much mobility. He was already struggling a little bit. I mean, to put up some fantasy points the last month or so, especially when teams are going blitz heavy against him. He was really having a hard time getting over that. So if Lamar plays this week, going to be more of a low-end QB-1, maybe even a high-end QB-2 in my rankings.

2:20.7

We'll see what it all shakes out when I do that early edition on Tuesday. So that's what you got to look at for Lamar. If he can't go Tyler Huntley, the backup who did a pretty decent job in relief this week, he would be the next man up. you're not really going to trust him as a starter though i mean fantasy wise outside of two quarterback or super flex leagues you're not going after him so if you're a lamar manager you're going to want to get a streaming option on your bench just in case here maybe it'll be a little worse as the week goes along and they won't be able to get them out there. But that's what the waiver wire section is going to be for.

2:52.0

So we're going to go over a bunch of potential pickups there in a minute because we have, like I said, a couple quarterbacks that might be missing. Fantasy managers could also be without Josh Allen this week. And this is another one where the team's really hoping that this is a little bit of a minor injury. he's reportedly dealing with a turf toe after that loss to the bucks, was banged up during the game, was limping at times, was also seen in a boot after the game, but he called it no big deal. And sometimes the boot thing can just be precautionary, right? That's what fingers crossed here. That's what we're hoping. I would lean towards him being available this week, but it's another one where he might be

3:26.0

slightly limited in the run game, right?

3:27.7

At least compared to his normal self out there.

3:30.0

The matchup with the Panthers defense, not the easiest either.

3:32.7

So my outlook is I'm expecting Mitch Trubisky to get some reps and practice this week,

3:36.9

but in the end, seems like Allen should be able to play in week 15 one we're

3:41.2

gonna have to monitor all week long though same goes for Aaron Rogers he
