Week 9 features a host of new injuries, and the QB position has been especially affected. With four quarterbacks on bye this week, many fantasy managers will need to watch the injury reports and have contingency plans in place for their signal-caller. New quarterback injuries include Matthew Stafford, Desmond Ridder, Kenny Pickett and Tyrod Taylor. Kirk Cousins is unfortunately out for the remainder of the season with an Achilles tear.
