NFL Injury Report: Keeping up with the most recent updates for Jayden Daniels, Justin Herbert, and others in fantasy football during Week 14

As we approach Week 14 of the fantasy football season, keeping track of player injuries is critical for your lineup decisions. Heres a detailed update on the latest injury news for several notable NFL players.

Jayden Daniels, QB, Commanders (Elbow)

All eyes are on the Commanders as they prepare for Week 14. Daniels may return after missing three games due to a dislocated left elbow. Washington has lost seven straight games and is close to playoff elimination, but Daniels is determined to play before the season ends. Monitor his practice status; if he cannot play, Marcus Mariota will start.

Justin Herbert, QB, Chargers (Hand)

Herbert suffered a fracture in his non-throwing hand last week versus the Raiders. He will undergo a procedure on Monday but still aims to play in Monday Night Football. Watch his practice participation for potential fantasy impact.

Omarion Hampton, RB, Chargers (Ankle)

Hampton could return from injured reserve for Monday Night Football against the Eagles. If active, he is expected to lead the backfield with Kimani Vidal as backup.

Trey Benson, RB, Cardinals (Knee)

Benson is eligible to return from IR this week. He practiced in a limited capacity last week, and his availability for Sundays game against the Rams will affect the backfield rotation alongside Bam Knight and Michael Carter.

Alvin Kamara, RB, Saints (Knee)

Kamara missed Week 13s game against the Dolphins. Rookie Devin Neal stepped in with 14 carries and 22 receiving yards. Kamara may play in Week 14 versus the Bucs, but Neal will likely remain involved.

Aaron Jones Sr., RB, Vikings (Shoulder)

Jones left Sundays game against the Seahawks with a shoulder injury after 10 touches for 25 yards. If he misses more time, Jordan Mason could become the primary back down the stretch, particularly in favorable matchups.

Amon-Ra St. Brown, WR, Lions (Ankle)

St. Brown exited the Thanksgiving Day game early and may miss additional games. Rookie Isaac TeSlaa, who played 92% of snaps in Week 13, becomes an intriguing waiver option. Jameson Williams is expected to handle most targets against the Cowboys, and the Lions might emphasize the run if St. Brown is inactive.

Drake London, WR, Falcons (Knee)

London has been out with a PCL injury for two games. He may return in Week 14, but the Falcons season struggles and quarterback situation with Michael Penix Jr. injured limit expectations for fantasy impact.

Tee Higgins, WR, Bengals (Concussion)

Higgins missed Thursday nights game due to a concussion but could return against the Bills. His availability would provide a boost to the Bengals offense and restore him as a reliable WR2 option.

Dalton Kincaid, TE, Bills (Hamstring)

Kincaid has missed three games and his status for Week 14 versus the Bengals is key. If active, he could be a major fantasy contributor given the Bills lack of pass-catching options and the Bengals weak defense against tight ends.

Fantasy managers should continue monitoring practice reports closely, as these injuries will influence lineups and potential breakout opportunities for backups.
