Fantasy football injury updates
JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) out Thursday
JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) did not participate in Thursday’s practice.
Fantasy impact
The Chiefs were without Smith-Schuster in Week 8, and it looks like he might miss another game. He’s dealing with a knee injury and it doesn’t look like he’ll be healthy enough to play in time for Monday’s game. DeAndre Hopkins should have plenty of opportunities to start working with his new team this week.

Bucky Irving (finger) did not practice Thursday
Bucky Irving (finger) sat out Tampa Bay’s practice Thursday.
Fantasy impact
The rookie was unable to practice Thursday. He’s dealing with some sort of toe injury right now, and recent reports suggest that it’s something he’ll likely struggle with all season. It seems likely that he’ll play in Week 9, but it’s not ideal for him to play at less than 100% health.

DK Metcalf (knee) did not practice Thursday
DC Metcalf (knee) sat out Seattle’s practice Thursday.
Fantasy impact
To no surprise, Metcalf was unable to practice on Thursday. He’s still dealing with a knee injury, and that’s a real threat to his availability for Week 9. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on what his official injury status is after Friday’s practice.
