Rostering 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.
He's broken down some of the most notable injuries heading into Week 13 and here's what he had to say about Tyreek Hill's (hamstring) outlook.
"Grade 1 injuries carry a usual timetable of 2-4 weeks for full return to play -- Hill will be two weeks removed from his injury this weekend," Dr. Bowers said. "He practiced in full on Wednesday -- in the absence of setback he will be in line to play this weekend against Oakland. Re-injury risk the rest of this season is moderate."
Dr. Bowers is also breaking down what challenges Julio Jones (shoulder) faces as he tries to return to the field, and has an in-depth look at JuJu Smith-Schuster's knee injury. You ABSOLUTELY need to see his breakdowns before making any Fantasy decisions.
