Here’s the first injury report of the week for Conference Champions

Since Sean McDermott took over in 2017, the Bills are 4-1 against the Chiefs in the regular season, but 0-3 in the postseason. Heading into the 2025 matchup in the Conference Championship, the Bills will be the healthiest they’ve been in this matchup in several years.

🚨 Week 15 Injuries Patrick Mahomes (R Ankle (high ankle?) Josh Allen (R shoulder) Justin Fields (Abdominal) Tommy DeVito (Concussion) Nick Chubb (Foot fracture) ❌ Alvin Kamara (Groin) Trey Benson (Ankle) Jaleel McLaughlin (Quad) Tony Pollard (Ankle) Braelon Allen (Back) Jaylen Waddle (Knee)

🚨 Week 14 PROJECTIONS Roschon Johnson - OUT Zamir White - OUT Tommy DeVito - OUT Taysom Hill - OUT Dallas Goedert - OUT Cedric Tillman - OUT Breece Hall - likely OUT Jalen Coker - likely OUT

Which way am I leaning for the GTD players for Week 14: Kenneth Walker - ❌ D'Andre Swift - ✅ Bucky Irving - ✅ Alexander Mattison - ✅ DJ Moore - ✅ Malik Nabers - ✅ George Pickens - ✅ Keon Coleman - ❌ Dalton Kincaid - ✅ Mecole Hardman - ❌ Most of these are a coin flip. Plan accordingly.

Ladd McConkey He’s dealing with a new knee injury, no details, as well as a lingering AC join sprain. McConkey is a player who’s battled through injuries through his entire career, dating back almost 10 years. I think McConkey likely plays in Week 14 at a high level.

I expect the following players to play in Week 14: CeeDee Lamb Ladd McConkey Ja’Marr Chase Mike Evans Malik Nabers Keenan Allen DeVonta Smith Dalton Kincaid Jake Ferguson

I love to educate. Whether it’s sports injuries, medicine, exercise, health optimization, anti-aging or whatever. This is my way of ‘giving back’ to the world to share the information I’ve accumulated over the past 20 years. If you want to learn, give me a follow.

I expect DeVonta Smith (hamstring) to return in Week 14 but Dallas Goedert to miss with a new knee injury.

I’m expecting Keon Coleman to return in Week 14 with his wrist injury. It’s too soon to determine if Dalton Kincaid (PCL) is ready to return, but he’s getting closer.

Trevor Lawrence is the 4th (offensive) player to be placed on IR due to a concussion this year‼️ Tua Tagovailoa Chris Olave Austin Ekeler Trevor Lawrence This is NOT common and appears to be part of a cultural change amongst the teams / medical staff in the NFL.

Taysom Hill Significant left knee injury, likely multi-ligaments possible fracture. Most likely season-ending. SMH

I’m not at home. Trying to watch the game on my phone at the only Michelin-rated taqueria in the world. I’ll update when I can.

Ladd McConkey suffered a knee injury today but there is no further information on it as of now. When I have more I will post something.

Trevor Lawrence with what appears to be a fencing response in part of his (likely) concussion. We have seen Tua Tagovailoa do this multiple times in the past.

Bucky Irving’s currently the RB21 despite only playing in over 55% of the team’s snaps in ONE GAME. He has 15+ fantasy points in 5 of his last 6 games.

Downs is one of my favorite bets for Week 12 He’s a lock for OVER 55.5 receiving yards Lions have a pass funnel defense and the Colts will be playing from behind.

I’ve spoken with several pros in the past and many of them take Viagra/ED drugs to help boost performance during their workout/game. There’s been players dating back to the early 2000s claiming players used to used this class of meds to optimize their performance, reportedly including @ochocinco

BAL injury updates: Agholor - fine, good to go Bateman (knee) - DNP, if DNP tmr then likely OUT Justice Hill - could clear concussion protocol tmr Roquan Smith - likely OUT

Purdy’s been ruled out for Week 12. He’s likely dealing with type I AC sprain in his right throwing shoulder.

Welp… sounds like Devonta Smith is officially out for Sunday’s game. Not sure the details of the setback yet, but a good reminder that hamstring problems can be particularly nasty.

Pacheco isn’t playing Week 12 because the #ChiefsKingdom are playing again 5 days later on Black Friday.

Aging is a disease. Everyone ages at a different speed, a different rate.

Looks like DeVonta Smith might have suffered a setback with his hamstring strain. He has yet to practice this week and his game status for Sunday is really up in the air.

Josh Jacobs Popped up today on the injury report with a quad and calf injury. Both of these are likely new. The good news is that he was a limited practice today which tells me he should be good to go for Week 12 with no restrictions. Likely a quad bruise and a minor tweak to the calf.

I expected Mike Evans to return in Week 12, and he is. Now the question becomes is he a ‘full go’ or a Nico Collins ‘full go’ Either way, you’re starting him…

Hollywood Brown He’s recovering from (likely) a dislocated SC joint which required surgery. Sounds like he is nearing his return, potentially ready to open up the 21-day practice window. With Pacheco potentially returning this week, there’s a chance the Chiefs look much healthier come December.

WR ranks through Week 12 1. Ja’Marr Chase (251.7 pts) 2. Amon-Ra St. Brown 3. Justin Jefferson 4. CeeDee Lamb 5. Garrett Wilson 6. Drake London 7. Zay Flowers 8. Terry McLaurin 9. Darnell Mooney 10. Jaxon-Smith Njigba Top 6 looks similar to ADPs except Tyreek Hill and AJ Brown (hamstring)

RB ranks through Week 12 NOT WHAT WE PREDICTED 1. Derrick Henry (223.1 pts) 2. Saquon Barkley 3. Alvin Kamara 4. Bijan Robinson 5. Jahmyr Gibbs 6. Joe Mixon 7. Breece Hall 8. De’Von Achane 9. James Cook 10. Kyren Williams Henry, Barkley, Kamara, and Mixon are all 27+ years old, Henry 30!

After tonight’s game, Joe Mixon will be in the top 8 for RBs (PPR) in 7 full games. That’s DESPITE MISSING 3.5 games with a high-ankle sprain. He’s been incredible and turned back the clock!
