Note: If you’re a contender with bench space, add Hollywood Brown, who can return by the fantasy football playoffs.
Christian McCaffrey: PCL
Can be safely dropped.
Projected Return: 2025
Jordan Mason: High Ankle Sprain
Now on IR with a high ankle sprain, Mason is out for the rest of the fantasy season.
Projected Return: 2025
Taysom Hill: ACL++
Taysom will be hard-pressed to even be ready by the start of 2025 at his age.
Projected Return: Mid 2025
Trevor Lawrence: Concussion
Lawrence took an absolute shot and was seen fencing immediately after. This is Lawrence’s second concussion since 2023.
Why throw him back out there? For who? For what? Expect to be without him for at least the next week.
Projected Return: TBD
Dallas Goedert: PCL (?)
Goedert is considered week-to-week with a knee injury which generally means he’ll miss at least two weeks. Given the injury itself, his soonest return will likely be in the fantasy football playoffs.
Projected Return: Week 16-17
Ladd McConkey: Knee
Young Ladd was able to finish the game despite now banging up his knee. With the shoulder issue and the knee now, it wouldn’t be shocking to see him rest this week during practice but he should be able to play in Week 14.
Projected Return: Week 14
