Donald Driver injury update: Fantasy value still low despite ‘probable’ status

Donald Driver got to do a Lambeau Leap in Week 8 agains the Jaguars. Will he be healthy enough for a repeat in Week 9?

Dilip Vishwanat

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Donald Driver is officially listed as probable on the team's injury report for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. Driver is dealing with neck and calf injuries and was limited in practice earlier this week.

Driver was dealing with the same injuries last week and managed to play and catch a touchdown against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Chances are he will be able to play against the Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact: Donald Driver is only worth a flier in deep leagues if you are desperate. He should play, but doesn’t get a ton of snaps at his advanced age.

Driver has, however, gotten on the field more with both Greg Jennings and Jordy Nelson absent from the lineup. If Nelson misses Sunday's game, Driver is a sneaky fantasy play.
