Week 7: Infirmary Report
QB Matt Schaub, Houston Texans
Schaub was hurt a couple of times on Sunday. He ended the day with an injured ankle and an injured hip. His status for Week 8 is unknown at this point.
QB Byron Leftwich, Atlanta Falcons
Leftwich injured his right ankle in his first start of the season with the Falcons. Leftwich has never been a sturdy option at quarterback and it appears he could be out for a while. If he is, Joey Harrington would likely get his job back.
RB Ronnie Brown, Miami Dolphins
Brown hurt his knee in the game against the Patriots and missed the rest of the game. There is some talk that this could be a major injury, which could be devastating to Brown owners. Jesse Chatman would likely get the start if Brown is unable to go.
WR Michael Clayton, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Clayton has been a disappointment ever since his big rookie season. Against the Lions, Clayton injured an ankle after catching a pass. He’s not much of a fantasy player at this point and if he’s out, it wouldn’t change much for the Bucs on offense.
TE Tony Scheffler, Denver Broncos
Scheffler had an expanded role for the Broncos on Sunday night after being slowed early in the year by injuries. He was playing well in his increased role before injury his foot in the fourth quarter. His status for Week 8 is unclear.
