Entering Monday Night Football, Week 11 brought us a mixed bag of fantasy football performances and utilization data to analyze. Unfortunately, two prominent injuries took center stage and will have lasting ripple effects to be felt the rest of the way, namely the season-ending losses of Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow and Baltimore Ravens TE Mark Andrews.
Other question marks have arisen with injuries to Los Angeles Rams wideout Cooper Kupp, Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones, and Seattle Seahawks rusher Kenneth Walker III. All three of those guys could return or miss games, and the latter scenario will create opportunities for increased utilization down the line.
As we enter the home stretch of the fantasy season, most pecking orders have stabilized, although we’ll see a handful of transitions toward the youth movement as teams fall out of the playoff race. That means fewer notable situations arise, and some of the inclusions will be a rehashing of developing roles.
