| 0:00.0 | Welcome, everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. |
| 0:16.9 | I'm your host Justin Boone, the lead fantasy analyst at the score. |
| 0:20.0 | We've got another injury-filled Friday show for you. |
| 0:22.5 | So I appreciate you tuning in and we'll try to get you caught up on everything. |
| 0:26.1 | And normally I would start to show off by talking about the Thursday night game. |
| 0:29.8 | And yeah, we could pile on Russell Wilson even more. |
| 0:32.7 | And we could call for Nathaniel Hackett to be fired. |
| 0:34.9 | But let's face it, both teams deserve to lose that game. And I think fantasy-wise, it was pretty straightforward. So I'm not going to waste any more time on it. We already wasted three hours of our lives watching it. What I will mention, though, is Naheem Hines. He got hurt. It happened early in the game. Hines expected to take on a bigger role in that one with Jonathan Taylor out. It did not last long. He got placed in the concussion protocol, and he's the latest player to be out there and really not be able to stand upright on his own after taking a hit, that same kind of scenario that we've seen a couple times recently. But fortunately, and maybe because of the two-as situation, Heinz was ruled out of the game almost immediately. So we'll be monitoring to see if he can return next week. |
| 1:13.0 | And we're also hoping that Jonathan Taylor can get over that ankle sprain and we can get him back in our |
| 1:17.2 | lineups next week. I know Frank Reich said that that's what they're expecting. They figure that Taylor should be out there for that one. |
| 1:22.9 | So fingers crossed, that happens. Otherwise, Dion Jackson, Philip Philip Lindsay they might be highlighted in the waiver |
| 1:30.1 | column next week if we don't get good news on Taylor but right now I'm expecting that Taylor will be out there for week six |
| 1:36.0 | because if he wasn't I mean Jackson Lindsay they wouldn't be anything more than RB3 flex options at this point for fantasy and that |
| 1:44.8 | would be if Taylor and Heinz were out for that game. We also saw the Broncos lose their |
| 1:49.4 | stud left tackle last night. Garrett Bowles. He got carted off and that could be a big loss for |
| 1:54.6 | their offense. Not that they can really withstand another big loss here, but we'll wait to hear |
| 1:59.1 | the severity of that one before we actually talk about what the fallout could be there. That is enough about the Thursday nighter. Like I said, do not want to spend much time there. Let's move right into the rest of the injuries that could cause your fantasy lineup some problems this week and week five. So we'll do this position by position like usual, and we will start with the quarterbacks and some quick ones that we |
| 2:18.3 | could hit on, Dak Prescott still isn't able to grip a football the way he needs to. |
| 2:22.8 | He's going to miss at least another week, and this is no surprise. |
| 2:25.8 | Jerry Jones tried to give us some crazy timeline on the injury, but in the end, Prescott likely |
| 2:31.3 | going to miss six to eight weeks before he comes back. |
| 2:34.0 | In the meantime |
