| 0:00.0 | Welcome everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. |
| 0:16.9 | I'm your host, Justin Boone. |
| 0:18.6 | Great to have you with us on a beautiful Friday afternoon. It's supposed to be a really nice weekend, too. Hopefully you're getting the same where you are. And hopefully your fantasy teams aren't getting crushed by injuries like a couple of mine are right now. Got a couple of two and four teams that look really good on paper, but have been hit pretty hard by injuries. Some stars missing time there. Regardless, that's part of the fantasy game. We got to adapt on the fly. We got to make the best decisions possible. So let's go over the injury updates heading into week seven, and let's make sure that you are caught up on all of it. And as usual, we will start with quarterbacks, which I think should be fairly quick here. Anthony Richardson, full practices all week. He's starting versus the |
| 0:55.1 | Dolphins. Not a great matchup against Miami, but Richardson always has that QB1 upside. |
| 1:00.8 | Stills, receivers, they're banged up. No Jonathan Taylor and spoiler for the running back section, |
| 1:05.3 | but yeah, Taylor's been ruled out already. And given all that, Richardson more of a risky |
| 1:10.4 | QB2 for fantasy, albeit one that always |
| 1:13.5 | has that QB1 upside. If he gets back to running the ball, he could still come through for us, but I know |
| 1:18.9 | at this point, maybe a little bit doubtful, looks a little more like a risky fantasy play weekend |
| 1:24.3 | and week out. Drake May coming off that solid debut fantasy wise. |
| 1:27.9 | He was the QB 10 last week, mostly thanks to the rushing numbers, also had some garbage |
| 1:32.9 | time stats that helped him out, but he's got some juice out there. He was pushing the |
| 1:37.0 | ball downfield. I liked what I saw, but he popped up on the injury report this week, got a |
| 1:42.1 | little scared, a knee injury reportedly he |
| 1:44.4 | went for an MRI after Wednesday's practice got it checked out but he was full in practice all week |
| 1:49.6 | he's starting on Sunday they've said that he's okay he's good to go great matchup two against |
| 1:54.5 | the jags they're giving up the most fantasy points to quarterbacks this year so may a solid |
| 1:59.1 | fantasy streamer this week Aaron Aaron Rogers. He's still |
| 2:02.0 | working his way through that ankle injury, had a vet day on Wednesday. At least I'm calling it a vet |
| 2:06.5 | day because he got back to full practices. He's good to go Sunday. No injury designation for him. |
| 2:12.2 | He will be out there against the Steelers and he's going to be out there with his bestie. |
| 2:16.1 | Devante Adams getting ready to make his debut for the Jets in that game. No way Rogers was going to miss that one. There was no chance. I don't know what kind of injury would have sidelined him for that game. And then on the other side, we should talk about this. Mike Tomlin said he has made his decision on who is going to start at quarterback, but he is not going to announce it until Sunday. The problem for him is that Justin Fields was already talking earlier in the week about how he didn't play well enough to keep the starting job. And then on Friday, George Pickens just flat out said that he's been spending extra time catching passes from Russell Wilson because it's Wilson's first start this week. So sure seems like Wilson is going to get the nod after being held out with the calf issue to start the year. |
