Here are the key injury updates heading into the early games of Week 11:

  • Colts WR Pierre Garcon (ankle) is active at Baltimore. Use him as you normally would.
  • As expected, Seahawks RB Julius Jones (chest) is out. Justin Forsett will start at Minnesota. It's a tough matchup, but he should see enough touches to be fairly effective.
  • Ravens TE Todd Heap (ribs) is active vs. the Colts. He hasn't done much lately and isn't a great fantasy play.
  • For the Browns, both RB Jamal Lewis (ankle) and WR Josh Cribbs (neck) are active at Detroit. Even in a favorable matchup, neither is a recommended start expect in deep leagues. RB Jerome Harrison is a healthy scratch.
  • Falcons WR Roddy White (knee) is active vs. the Giants. Go ahead and get him in your lineup.
  • As expected, Redskins RB Clinton Portis (concussion) is out. Ladell Betts will handle the workload at Dallas and isn't a bad flex option.
  • Saints RB Reggie Bush (knee) is inactive at Tampa Bay. Expect a big day from Pierre Thomas. WR Lance Moore (ankle) is also out.
  • For the Falcons, RBs Michael Turner (ankle) and Jerious Norwood (hip) are inactive. Jason Snelling will see a sizable workload against the Giants and can be used if you need a RB.
  • Vikings WR Bernard Berrian (hamstring) is active vs. the Seahawks. Considering his injury and performance lately, he's a poor fantasy bet.
