Week 13 has provided a lot of ups and downs for fantasy owners, and more importantly, their playoff implications. Here is a quick recap of some of the top performers from this past week as well as some key injuries to take not of going into the fantasy playoffs.

Early Week 14 Injury Report

Stevie Johnson, SD WR

Johnson went down again on Sunday with a resurging groin injury that seems like it just doesn’t want to go away. With Malcom Floyd also suffering an injury in the same game, this left the already diminished San Diego team with just two wide receivers in Malcom Floyd and Javontee Herndon. Johnson’s status is in the air as of now for their next game and should be closely monitored if you intend on starting him Week 14.

Dontrelle Inman, SD WR

Inman went down with a scary neck injury, having play stopped and getting carted off the field is never a pretty sight. Fortunately, he arose, and now has a day-to-day tag by his name. With an already depleted offensive line and wide receiver core, head coach Mike McCoy said it’s a sliver of good news.

Karlos Williams, Buf RB

Williams, who missed all of last week’s practice, is questionable at best with his shoulder injury that continues to keep him on the sidelines. Especially now that the Bills take on the Eagles in LeSean McCoy’s revenge game, Karlos Williams is far from being a fantasy starter at this point.

Travis Benjamin, Cle WR

Benjamin who is day-to-day as of current, has a shoulder injury but is “unlikely to miss time”, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. With that being said, keep a close eye on his work on the practice field this week.

Jermaine Gresham, Ari TE

Gresham went down with a left knee injury in Sunday’s rout against the St. Louis Rams. The injury occurred in the second half of the game, and as of now, his status is listed as “uncertain”. Keep an eye on the Card’s tight end as this week progresses for more information.
