The NFL injury report heading into Week 10 has some notable names like Dion Lewis, Latavius Murray, Malcom Floyd, Matt Forte, Eddie Lacy, LeSean McCoy, Ben Roethlisberger, Sean Lee and Calvin Johnson banged up. Forte is expected to be out for another week, while Roethlisberger said he will try and play despite dealing with a foot injury, but his status remains uncertain.
Dion Lewis is out for the season after suffering a torn ACL, according to reports from ESPN and Fox Sports. Lewis had been the most consistent running back for the Patriots and now he will be done for the year, leaving LeGarrette Blount, James White and Brandon Bolden to pick up his production. The Patriots had initially hoped that Lewis did not suffer a tear, but an MRI showed the extent of the damage and now his season is done.
The Steelers came out of Sunday expecting to be without Ben Roethlisberger for a couple weeks with a foot injury, but the quarterback has not been ruled out for next week yet. According to Pro Football Talk, Roethlisberger spoke to "The Cook and Poni Show" on 93.7 The Fan and said that he's "not even going to rule myself out this week" and will take it "one day at a time" to see if his foot heals up. The Steelers just lost Le'Veon Bell for the season and Roethlisberger has already missed time with a knee injury this year.
Latavius Murray is coming into the week with a concussion and he remains in the protocol heading into Week 10, according to Bill Williamson at ESPN. Jack Del Rio said he thinks Murray will "bounce back fine," but he will have to pass the concussion tests before he can play on Sunday and it comes after Murray took a hard hit from Mike Mitchell against the Steelers. Murray missed a game last year for the Raiders with a concussion and having him out would be a big hit, as he has 630 yards rushing this season and has been averaging nearly five yards per attempt. Marcel Reece likely would get some carries if Murray is out.
Matt Forte is dealing with an MCL injury and he could miss at least two weeks. Forte initially was called "day to day," but after missing Week 9 against the Chargers, there is a good chance that he will be out for Week 10, according to the Chicago Tribune. Malcom Floyd left the game on Monday night and is dealing with a shoulder injury for the Chargers. Eddie Lacy had to leave the game against the Panthers with a groin injury and that gave way to James Starks. Lacy could be limited for this week.
LeSean McCoy is coming into the week with a shoulder injury, but he is expected to play on Thursday night for the Bills. Rex Ryan said to Mike Rodak at ESPN that he thinks McCoy will play, but that he could be limited in the game. McCoy has dealt with numerous injuries this season, but he still put up over 100 yards in the last game for the Bills. Karlos Williams returned from a concussion and he could be the lead back Thursday night.
