Injuries suck, but they are a part of professional sports. Of course, they’re also part of fantasy sports and betting. In both instances, they can be the difference between wins and losses on a weekly basis.
As a fantasy football manager, you’ll need to know which players are in and which are out. We’re here to help you keep a tab on all of the important ones.
With 12 NFL games this Sunday and one on Monday, there are plenty of injuries to discuss.
Here’s an early look at which players give it a go and which ones won’t in Week 12.
QB Kyler Murray - Arizona Cardinals
For the first time since Week 9, Kyler will be back in Arizona’s starting lineup on Sunday.

WR Rondale Moore - Arizona Cardinals
Rondale Moore injured his groin on his first touch of the game last week in Mexico, and it appears he still isn’t quite right.
Players already ruled out Sunday include Ronnie Stanley, Sheldon Rankins, Russell Gage, Greg Newsome, Joe Mixon, Denico Autry, Derek Stingley, Jerry Jeudy, K.J. Hamler, Matt Ioannidis, Mike Williams, Rondale Moore, Byron Murphy, Matthew Stafford, Kadarius Toney and Romeo Doubs.

RB Joe Mixon - Cincinnati Bengals
Joe Mixon will not score five touchdowns this week. In fact, he will not score a single touchdown. He’ll miss Cincy’s game at Tennessee this weekend due to a concussion.
"We don't anticipate traveling him." Zac Taylor said Joe Mixon likely won't make trip to Tennessee as he has been ruled out for the game.

WR Ja'Marr Chase - Cincinnati Bengals
It appeared as though Ja’Marr was going to make his return to the field on Sunday for the first time since Week 7, but it looks like he’ll have to wait at least another week.
Ja’Marr Chase is OUT vs the #Titans, sources tell @theScore.
I’m told the #Bengals’ All-Pro WR had a good week of practice, but isn’t quite ready to return from a hairline hip fracture and torn labrum.
The hope is that Chase will play Week 13 vs the #Chiefs. pic.twitter.com/5gnktvpkFF

RB Josh Jacobs - Las Vegas Raiders
Apparently, Jacobs injured his calf during practice this past week, which led to his name appearing on the injury report. No indication yet on if he’ll play on Sunday or not.
Raiders RB Josh Jacobs was added to the injury report with a calf injury and is now questionable to play Sunday against the Seahawks.

WR Mike Williams - Los Angeles Chargers
Williams re-injured his ankle last week against the Chiefs and will not play in Week 12.
WR Mike Williams (high ankle sprain) has been ruled OUT of Sunday's game at Cardinals.

QB Matthew Stafford - Los Angeles Rams
At this point, the Rams likely just want to throw this whole season away. Stafford won’t play.
Rams HC Sean McVay said QB Matthew Stafford is in concussion protocol and will not play Sunday against the Chiefs because of a neck issue. That does not mean Stafford has been diagnosed with a concussion yet.

WR Deebo Samuel - San Francisco 49ers
It’s a hammy issue for Deebo. He’s listed as “questionable” to play against the Saints.
#49ers WR Deebo Samuel (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday against the Saints.

RB Leonard Fournette - Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Hope you fantasy football managers invested in Rachaad White.
Bucs RB Leonard Fournette is listed as doubtful to play Sunday vs. the Browns, putting rookie Rachaad White in line for a significant role.
