NFL Injury Report For Week 12: Fantasy Football Injuries

NFL Week 12 Injury Report: Quarterbacks
Brock Purdy Injury Update - Shoulder
Head coach Kyle Shanahan deemed Brock Purdy as day-to-day with a sore right shoulder suffered in the 49ers Week 11 loss to their divisional foe, Seattle. This is slightly concerning heading into Week 12.
NFL Week 12 Injury Report: Running Backs
Jonathan Brooks Injury Update - Knee
The week every fantasy football player has been waiting for has finally arrived. Albeit 12 weeks into the season, it’s here. Head coach Dave Canales expects Jonathan Brooks to make his season debut. He’ll likely operate as Chuba Hubbard’s backup, but we’ll get a good idea of how Carolina will utilize him early on.
Tyjae Spears Injury Update - Concussion
Another day, another Tyjae Spears injury. It’s been a disappointing 2024 campaign thus far and per head coach Brian Callahan, Tyjae Spears is currently in concussion protocol.
Alexander Mattison Injury Update - Ankle
Both Raiders running backs have injuries, which is problematic for them, but we’ll see how things progress throughout the week. Mattison has an ankle sprain.
Zamir White Injury Update - Quad
After injuring his quad and not returning, Zamir White was replaced by Ameer Abdullah, and it’s been one thing after another for White this season.
Miles Sanders Injury Update - Ankle
Miles Sanders sprained his ankle, has already been ruled out for Week 12, and is considered week-to-week per Dave Canales. He’s likely going to be the third string running back when he returns.
Marshawn Lloyd Injury Update - Ankle, Hamstring, Abdomen
This poor guy. Marshawn Lloyd was activated off of the IR just to be put back on because as soon as his 21-day window was opened, he had appendicitis. This season is a lost cause for the promising young running back.
NFL Week 12 Injury Report: Wide Receivers
Darnell Mooney Injury Update - Hamstring
After Darnell Mooney himself told the media after Sunday’s loss that he’s going to be fine and that his leg simply gave out on him, early reports are that it’s not serious. That’s per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.
Gabe Davis Injury Update - Knee
It has been confirmed by head coach Doug Pederson that Gabe Davis has a torn meniscus and will miss the remainder of the year.
Adam Thielen Injury Update - Hamstring
Despite all of the excitement surrounding the debut of Jonathan Brooks, Adam Thielen is slated to return, according to head coach Dave Canales. Thielen hasn’t played since Week 3, so we’ll see if he’s on some type of snap count.
NFL Week 12 Injury Report: Tight Ends
George Kittle Injury Update - Hamstring
George Kittle was a true game-time decision in Week 11 and was ultimately held out and didn’t play. The 49ers lost without him and the result will not rush him back, but more so shows his importance to the team. Kittle, per head coach Kyle Shanahan, could return to practice on Wednesday.
