Donald Driver injury update: Will play for fantasy owners Sunday
Donald Driver is expected to play Sunday when the Packers take on the Lions despite a broken thumb. We break down the fantasy implications.
Jeff Hanisch-US PRESSWIRE
Driver is on pace for his quietest season since his rookie year. Through Week 13, he has just eight receptions for 77 yards and two touchdowns.
Fantasy Impact: Driver will play, but he is way down the Packers' depth chart at this point. He could see the field a bit more now that Jordy Nelson has been ruled out, but he is still expected to see targets behind Greg Jennings, Randall Cobb, James Jones and tight end Jermichael Finley.
