Damage Control: Owen Daniels Suffers Season-Ending Injury

Owen DanielsDid the injury bug hit your fantasy football team like it was a car windshield moving at 100 MPH? If so, it may be time to do some Damage Control.

Quarterback

Aaron Rodgers, Packers - Rodgers has been sacked 31 times this season to lead the NFL. On Sunday he sprained his toe. His opposite foot was already injured, so watch to see how well he's moving around this week. I would expect him to play through these foot injuries.

Jake Delhomme, Panthers - Delhomme sustained a chest injury against Arizona on Sunday but said on Monday that he feels fine. There's no reason to think that he won't be ready for Week 9.

Matt Hasselbeck, Seahawks - Hasselbeck spent time on Sunday being looked at by trainers on the sidelines but never missed one play. He said on Monday that he felt fine and should miss no time.

Brett Favre, Vikings - Favre may have played with a pulled groin, he may have been sick -- nobody truly knows. He definitely took some hits on Sunday. Watch practice for issues with any groin injury. He may be limited this week, but until Favre sits on the sideline for a series, I'm not buying that he's too hurt to play.

Running Back

Kevin Smith, Lions - Smith injured his shoulder on Sunday and left the game, not to return. Head coach Jim Schwartz said that he could have played if the team really needed him though. If he's unable to go next week or even if he's just banged up and limited, Maurice Morris will see his role expanded.

Wide Receiver

Anquan Boldin, Cardinals - Boldin tweaked his right ankle on Sunday but said on Monday that he doesn't feel any worse than before he aggravated the injury. He also said that as long as he could run, he would play. He doesn't want to take any time off.

Donald Driver, Packers - Driver suffered a shoulder injury on Sunday, but was able to return to the game. His injury was just a stinger and he should be fine for practice this week.

Danny Amendola, Rams - Amendola left Sunday's game with a concussion. He will be tested on Tuesday to see how long the head injury will keep him sidelined.

Domenik Hixon, Giants - Hixon suffered a hip flexor on Sunday. The wide receiver is sore right now but how much he'll be able to practice this week won't be determined until Wednesday when he tests his ability to move.

Lance Moore, Saints - Moore left Monday night's game with a shin bruise and did not return. He's not expected to miss any time.

Tight End

Owen Daniels, Texans - Daniels tore a ligament in his knee and will miss the rest of the 2009 season. He will undergo surgery to repair the damage. It's time to find a replacement for what may have been the best fantasy tight end in football.

Kevin Boss, Giants - An Eagles defensive back fell on the back of Boss' leg, injuring his ankle in the third quarter. Boss was able to return in the fourth quarter to contribute. He should be fine, but don't cement his name onto your roster until he practices fully.

Randy McMichael, Rams - McMichael left Sunday's game with a rib injury but x-rays came back negative. His chest is sore, but he should be able to play in the Rams next game, which won't be until Week 10 as St. Louis has entered their bye week.
