Fantasy football injuries, NFL Week 8: Projections for 49ers following Brock Purdy's injury

The Cleveland Browns have been dealing with key Fantasy football injuries throughout the season, and they could be missing another key player on Sunday. Running back Jerome Ford has missed two straight practices to begin Week 8 prep due to a high-ankle sprain that is expected to keep him out for at least one week. There are some starting quarterbacks sidelined this week as well, leaving owners scrambling to add players to their Week 8 Fantasy football lineups. 

Luckily, with the SportsLine Projection Model, you can get live-updated projections that can help you inform your lineup decisions in the event of any Fantasy football injuries. SportsLine's model beat human experts for the past several seasons, especially when there were big differences in ranking! It is simulating Week 8 10,000 times multiple times daily to give you the most up-to-date information.

One Fantasy football injury that the model can help you deal with: 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy. San Francisco's signal-caller was placed in concussion protocol earlier this week after Monday's loss at Minnesota. Purdy is going to have trouble passing the five-step protocol on a short week, leaving Sam Darnold in line to start Sunday's game against Cincinnati. 

The model can also help you figure out how to handle Jerome Ford and Deshaun Watson while providing live-updated projections for every player on your roster! These Fantasy football projections can help ensure you've optimized your Week 8 Fantasy football lineups. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before locking in your lineups.
