Even with a full slate of games, Week 12 was fairly kind as far as injuries go -- or so we thought.
Tuesday morning, fantasy managers received some bombshell news:
#Colts owner @JimIrsay confirms the injury and tells @RomeovilleKid that Jonathan Taylor will have surgery tomorrow and miss a couple weeks.

Source says no decision on Injured Reserve yet. It’s possible and will be decided later this week. https://t.co/2AvUKXGxRD
It looks like there’s a possibility that Jonathan Taylor could return before the fantasy playoffs conclude, but it’s time to start scouring the waiver wire for immediate replacements.
There are a few more players we need to keep an eye on this week. With six teams on bye, fantasy managers hope to have as many players healthy as possible. Check the injury reports on Friday to see the latest status of these players. And remember: You can also anticipate which players may get bumps if the player ahead of them is out. As you make your waiver claims this week, be sure to grab some insurance.
Players to track:
QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson (concussion)
QB Baker Mayfield (ankle)
RB Travis Etienne (chest)
RB Aaron Jones (knee)
RB Javonte WIlliams (neck)
