Welcome everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. I'm your host, Justin Boone. Thank you so much for spending some time with us today.

And it's Monday. So that means we got injuries to go over from week nine. We also have the top waiver wire pickups to get to as we're turning the page here towards week 10. Before we get to that stuff, though, just a small item to note. We're not going to have a Tuesday episode again this week. And don't worry, they're not gone for good. There's just been some things in my schedule that's kind of prevented me from recording each of the last two Tuesdays. And sadly, it's going to happen again this week. So no Tuesday episode, but my rankings, they're going to go up that day as usual. And then everything else should be back on track the rest of the week. All right, let's get to the injury roundup here. And another week, another quarterback loss for the year. This time it's Daniel Jones on the Giants. And it was already a tough year for him. They had so many injuries in the offensive line. He already missed some time with a neck issue. Now it's been confirmed. He tore his ACL on Sunday, and that means he is done for the season.

And to make matters worse, Tyrod Taylor got placed on IR before this game.

So the Giants are down to Tommy DeVito, who stepped in in relief duty the last two weeks.

And sure, he looked a little bit better on Sunday.

But if they're going to start him the rest of the way, that's just a path to want a top pick next year. I mean, there's not much happening in that offense if it's going to be Tommy DeVito under center. Or they could play Matt Barkley, who's on the practice squad, and he's a guy that we've seen get some starts in the past for other squads. He might be a little bit better, especially in terms of, you know, fantasy-wise for the giant skill position players. But overall, you already have Darren Waller on IR. None of the receivers are emerging here. So it's Saquan Barkley and it's not much else for fantasy in this offense. And we wish Daniel Jones a full recovery, no setbacks. We want to see him back in a healthy in

2024, but we're going to steer clear this giant's offense for fantasy unless you're talking

about Saquan and even Saquan is going to take a hit now. Some other quick ones at quarterback,

Jalen Hertz, he got banged up and he limped off. He ended up going back in right away. Seems like

it's that knee that's bothering him and he wasn't moving as well after he aggravated it in this game but

he keeps gutting it out and as long as he's out there we're gonna keep starting

him for fantasy because he keeps producing he also does get a buy in week 10 so let's

hope that he can get some much needed rest and he can come back full strength for the

stretch run after week 10 guys like lamar jackson and cj stroud they also limped off in their games

but they came right back in didn't seem any worse for where so nothing to be concerned about

i just want to mention it when i see that stuff and then jaren hall he's the other quarterback jaren hall

and the viking he was the one that got the start this week, but his day came to an early end. He took that big shot from two defenders at the goal line, and he was ruled out with a concussion, and then that set the stage for Josh Dobbs to just shock the world and lead the Vikings to the win, despite the fact that he just showed up there at the trade deadline earlier in the week.

So pretty good story and we'll talk more about Dobbs when we get to the waiver wire section in a second.

For injured running backs, we don't have much actually, at least in terms of big names.

Cam Acres, he was the worst of the bunch.

He suffered another torn Achilles and it doesn't get much worse than that. I mean your heart has to go out to him 24 years old

Had so much promise a couple years ago now he's got another serious knee injury and we don't see many running backs return from one Achilles and we talked about that when he hurt the first one
