Putting a player in your Fantasy lineup dealing with an injury always comes with some risk, so don't make the final call until you see what SportsLine NFL injury analyst Dr. Brandon Bowers has to say.
Dr. Bowers, a Doctor of Physical Therapy currently practicing in the outpatient orthopedic setting on northeast side of Columbus, Ohio, completed his undergraduate work at Siena Heights University. He earned his doctorate in physical therapy from the University of Toledo. He is currently employed by Athletico Physical Therapy and treats a high volume of high school and collegiate athletes in the clinical setting. He's worked previously for a host of different websites serving as an injury analyst, publishing weekly columns, appearing on podcasts and radio shows to provide injury content.
We can tell you Dr. Bowers is optimistic that Patriots running back Sony Michel will be on the field in Week 10, and has a good medical outlook going forward as he overcomes a knee injury.
"A return to game action for Michel following his knee injury is in sight as the Patriots expect him to play in Week 10 against Tennessee," Dr. Bowers said. "He has missed the past two games for New England and figures to slide right back into the running back mix once cleared medically. Michel was able to participate in a limited capacity during a walk through on Wednesday and should be able to participate at a higher level as the week progresses. The possibility of Michel sustaining this exact injury again the rest of the season is low to moderate, and his ability to perform at a high level should not be impacted."
Dr. Bowers also has a breakdown of Rob Gronkowski's back injury, and has updates on A.J. Green, Leonard Fournette and Chris Carson.
