Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon hopes to recover from a sprained MCL in time for Week 16, according to Ryan O'Halloran of the Florida Times-Union.
T.J. Yeldon aims to return Week 16, fantasy owners must wait
The Jaguars will likely turn to Denard Robinson in Week 15. We break down the fantasy implications.


Yeldon missed Wednesday's practice, and is unlikely to play on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons, according to O'Halloran's report. The rookie running back continues to sport a knee brace, but his MRI showed no major damage, indicating that Week 16 could be a realistic return date for Yeldon. Denard Robinson will start for however long Yeldon is sidelined.
Fantasy impact: It's unfortunate timing for Yeldon's injury, given that he has a fabulous matchup with a reeling Falcons defense at hand. If Yeldon is able to take the field at full capacity for Week 16, another strong matchup presents itself against the Saints, which fantasy owners would love to exploit if they make it past this round of the fantasy playoffs.
In the meantime, Robinson makes for a plug-and-play RB2 for Week 15, and should be given strong consideration by fantasy owners who are fortunate to have made it this far in the season.
