Week 1 of the Regular season has come and gone, which players suffered injuries that you should find temporary or permanent solutions for?

The first week of the regular season in the NFL has finally come and gone. Hopefully, all of your fantasy teams are doing well. It will take a few weeks before we know what players will become in the upcoming season, but like every year, there are notable injuries that as a fantasy owner you must prepare for.

The next man up mentality will be apart of every NFL team, but it might not be best for your fantasy team. Today we are going to take a look at the injuries sustained in Week 1 of the regular season. We will keep you up to date on these injuries, but who should you find a replacement for in Week 2, and who should you stick with despite minor injuries?

I had two players on my fantasy team get hurt in the Week 1 action. It’s a perfect example of this piece. Leonard Fournette left the game early with what looks like a hamstring injury but is expected to play for their Week 2 game. I will be keeping a close eye on that injury report. Another player that I lost was Delanie Walker who is out for the season.

Luckily I had a backup tight end that I feel comfortable with considering that good tight ends in fantasy football are hard to come by. It’s still a position that I will be looking to address in this weeks waiver wire. Expect my top waiver wire pickups to come out tomorrow morning!
