Kyle Juszczyk News
Monday, December 1, 9:34 PM
San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk (rib) was forced to exit during the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. After further evaluation, Juszczyk was diagnosed with a rib fracture. Luckily for San Francisco, Juszczyk will get a week off to rest with the team on a bye in Week 14. Following that, the 49ers will re-evaluate the 34-year-old ahead of their Week 15 matchup versus the Tennessee Titans. There's a chance that Juszczyk won't miss any time, which would be good news for San Fran's offense. As mostly a blocking asset, Juszczyk is not fantasy relevant.

Chris Brooks News
Tuesday, May 26, 5:32 PM
Green Bay Packers running back Chris Brooks could be emerging as a top handcuff to stash in fantasy football leagues after news broke on Tuesday that starting RB Josh Jacobs has been arrested and booked into jail on five charges, including domestic abuse. If Jacobs is eventually suspended by the NFL to begin the 2026 season, both Brooks' and MarShawn Lloyd's short-term fantasy value for the upcoming season could skyrocket with Emanuel Wilson now out of town. The 26-year-old Brooks, a former undrafted free agent out of BYU, began his NFL career with the Miami Dolphins in 2023, but he has spent the last two seasons in Green Bay. In 32 games (zero starts) with the Packers, he has seen 63 carries for 289 yards (4.6 yards per tote) and one touchdown on the ground, adding 24 catches for 160 yards and no TDs as a pass-catcher. Because of Lloyd's lengthy injury history, Brooks is ranked a tad higher (No. 71 RB) in half-PPR formats for the 2026 campaign. Brooks could be Green Bay's go-to back if Jacobs is hit with a suspension.
