Will Kenny Yeboah Play vs. the Texans? Week 9 Injury Status & Updates
Kenny Yeboah Injury Update
As the Giants prepare to face the Houston Texans in Week 9, there is some uncertainty surrounding the status of tight end Kenny Yeboah. Yeboah suffered a calf injury in the Giants' Week 8 loss to the Seattle Seahawks and did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday.Yeboah is a key part of the Giants' offense, and his absence would be a significant blow. He is the team's leading receiver among tight ends with 18 catches for 203 yards and two touchdowns. He is also a valuable blocker in the running game.
The Giants are hoping that Yeboah will be able to play on Sunday, but they are preparing for the possibility that he will not. If Yeboah is unable to play, the Giants will likely turn to Chris Myarick and Tanner Hudson to fill his role.
Week 9 Fantasy Outlook
If Yeboah is unable to play, he would be a major loss for fantasy owners. He is a solid TE1 option, and his absence would leave a big hole in the Giants' passing game.
Myarick and Hudson are both capable players, but neither is a true replacement for Yeboah. Myarick has only 10 catches for 99 yards this season, while Hudson has only one catch for 10 yards.
If you are relying on Yeboah in your fantasy lineup, you should consider looking for a replacement. Myarick and Hudson are both risky options, and there are better options available on the waiver wire.
