SIC Roundup: Key Injury Analysis from Week 12

Chris Olave - SIC score 22 

Injury: Concussion

Impact: Ruled out with a concussion he suffered on a big fall early in the 3rd quarter - Saints now down top 3 wideouts - exited after 7 catches for 114 yards - by our data, 22% chance to clear without missing a game

Week 13 Opponent: Lions 

Team: Saints

Justin Jefferson - SIC score 71

Injury: Hamstring

Impact: Questionable with a hamstring injury that has kept him out since early October - LP all week but team likely to play it safe and rest him through bye week - if active, likely on limited snaps or a decoy role

Week 12 Opponent: Bears

Team: Vikings

Cooper Kupp - SIC score 86 

Injury: Left ankle

Impact: By video, minor left ankle injury early in the first quarter against the Cardinals - returned to the game but hasn't looked fully mobile - previous injury to right ankle but did not miss a game with after the W11 injury

Week 13 Opponent: Browns 

Team: Rams

Amari Cooper - SIC score 64 

Injury: Ribs

Week 13 Opponent: 49ers 

Team: Eagles

Travis Etienne Jr. - SIC score 47

Team: Jaguars

Rashid Shaheed - SIC score 47

Injury: Thigh
