Week 9 NFL injuries sideline stars across multiple teams
Yahoo Sports reported that several players entered concussion or injury protocols after Week 9 games, among them Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden, Los Angeles Rams pass rusher Myles Garrett, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and Rams wideout Puka Nacua. Earlier in the week, ESPN’s fantasy football roundup listed a range of NFL players as inactive or questionable for Week 9, offering guidance for fantasy lineups.
CBS Sports noted injuries affecting multiple teams, highlighting absences such as Mike Evans, Quenton Nelson and several quarterbacks, and later reported that Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens was ruled out for the Cowboys’ Week 9 matchup. Yahoo Sports also said that several teams would start backup quarterbacks on as starters dealt with injuries.
