SIC Roundup: Key Injury Insights from Week 11

Cooper Kupp - SIC score 82 

Injury: Ankle

Impact: By video, minor inversion ankle sprain when he was stepped on while run blocking - aggravation of mid-October right inversion ankle sprain but unrelated to high-ankle sprain that knocked him out last season - good chance to play in W12.

Week 12 Opponent: Cardinals

Team: Rams

Aaron Jones - SIC score 46 

Injury: Left knee

Impact: By video, worry for left knee MCL sprain - bent at an odd angle on a tackle with 3 minutes left in the 2nd Quarter - now ruled out and unlikely to play on Thanksgiving against the Lions - difficult to cut effectively but hopefully not much new damage as he's had a previous left knee MCL sprain in 2017

Week 12 Opponent: Lions 

Team: Packers

De’Von Achane - SIC score 65 

Injury: Right knee

Impact: In medical tent after catch and run early in the first quarter - by video, did not appear to suffer a new injury but may have reaggravated right knee MCL sprain from mid-October - questionable to return with a knee injury - difficult to return given his previous injury

Week 12 Opponent: Jets 

Team: Dolphins

Joey Bosa - SIC score 39 

Injury: Right foot

Impact: Limped off after pass rush early in 1st Q and was carted to locker room - questionable to return with a foot injury - hopefully X-ray does not show a 5th metatarsal Jones fracture - returned to sidelines in a boot and on crutches - previous foot issues to other side

Week 12 Opponent: Ravens

Team: Chargers

Kenneth Walker - SIC score 68

Injury: Oblique

Impact: By video, apparent left oblique injury suffered before he was hit - exited in first quarter and now doubtful to return - 

Week 12 Opponent: 49ers 

Team: Seahawks

Talanoa Hufanga - SIC score 23

Injury: Right knee

Impact: By video, worry for right knee ACL tear when he attempted to tackle Rachaad White in the open field - carted to locker room and quickly ruled out - would be a big loss for the 49ers' defense

Week 12 Opponent: Seahawks 

Team: 49ers
