Fantasy Impact: This is generally one of the worst in-season foot injuries as it usually results in a missed season. Similar injuries felled Darren McFadden and Matt Schaub in 2011. Holmes should be back in plenty of time for next season, but he will likely be on the shelf the rest of this year. Holmes was coming off a huge game against the Miami Dolphins in which he hauled in 147 receiving yards. It will be worth waiting a day or two for official word, but one and done leagues will want to release Holmes at some point this week.
