Fantasy Injury Updates Latest news on Da

With Sunday's kickoffs on the horizon, fantasy football owners are doing their last-minute checks of the Week 15 injury report and making their final Kyle Allen Jersey start 'em, sit 'em decisions. Standout tight ends Dallas Goedert (shoulder), Darren Waller (hamstring), and Juwan Johnson (ankle) have all mi sed some time due to various injuries but could potentially be back on the field, adding some depth to one of fantasy's thinnest positions.Below, we'll give you the latest news on these tight ends and break down how their injuries could potentially affect the Week 15 fantasy landscape.WEEK 15 INJURY UPDATES: | WEEK 15 FANTASY PICKS: | | UPDATE: The Eagles did not activate Goedert (shoulder) for Sunday's game against the Bears, but he's still on track to return in Week 16, .Goedert (shoulder) is still on the IR, so the Eagles don't have to give him a designation for Week 15's game against Chicago, but he told reporters on Wednesday that things are "still up in the air" but also "trending in the right direction" to play on Sunday, . We Chase Young Jersey should know if he's going to be active on Saturday afternoon.If Goedert is ready to play, owners should not have any hesitation about starting him against the Bears. It's a tough matchup, as Chicago allows the fourth-fewest fantasy points to TEs, but Goedert averaged five catches for 65.1 yards and scored three total TDs in his eight full games this year. Those are must-start numbers for virtually any TE. If Goedert is held out for another week, Jack Stoll and Grant Calcaterra will once split TE snaps, but neither is worth considering in fantasy.WEEK 15 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | | UPDATE:Waller was activated on Saturday afternoon, meaning he's fully expected to start on Sunday against the Patriots.UPDATE 2:Waller is officially ACTIVE.Raiders' coach Josh McDaniels was non-committal about activating Waller (hamstring) for Sunday's game against New England when speaking Dyami Brown Jersey with reporters on Friday, . McDaniels said that "one more day of practice will be good for us, and we'll see how today goes and make a good choice."It's hard to make sense of what McDaniels was trying to say about Waller, who has not played since Week 5. Earlier this week, the Raiders designated the veteran tight end to return from injured reserve. If Waller is activated for Week 15, he still holds some value as a low-end TE1 despite not having a great statistical season (four catches, 43.8 yards per game in his four full games). He would have a solid matchup on Sunday against a Patriots' defense that allows the 11th-most fantasy points to the position this season. If's he out again, look out for Foster Moreau, who has filled in admirably, to get some looks in Sunday's game and be a boom-or-bust sleeper in deep leagues.WEEK 15 STANDARD Darrick Forrest Jersey RANKINGS: | | | | | UPDATE:Johnson is officially ACTIVE.Johnson (ankle) for Sunday's game against the Falcons. The 26-year-old pa s-catcher was limited participant in practice this week.With New Orleans having a bye in Week 14, Johnson had another week of rest after not playing in Week 13 against the Buccaneers. This season, Johnson has 31 receptions (49 targets) for 349 yards and five touchdowns, but it's important to note that all five scores have come in his past five full games. If Johnson suits up, he has a good matchup against the Falcons, who allow the ninth-most fantasy points to TEs this season. If Johnson is out again, which seems unlikely at this point, his owners could always pivot to backup Adam Trautman Matt Ioannidis Jersey (ankle), though there are plenty of higher-upside options available on waiver wires (Tyler Conklin, Chig Okonkwo, Robert Tonyan).
