Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon is progressing from his MCL sprain but is questionable for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints, according to Vito Stellino of the Florida Times-Union.
T.J. Yeldon ‘progressing’ from injury, per report; fantasy status needs monitoring
The Jaguars’ backfield remains banged up. We break down the fantasy implications.


With Denard Robinson now nursing a foot sprain, it is possible that the Jaguars will have to resort to a committee of Jonas Gray and Joe Banyard if neither of their top two running backs can take the field on Sunday. Robinson played in all 62 of the team's snaps despite his injury, and Yeldon's status can be considered much less concrete.
Fantasy impact: Fantasy owners with either of Robinson or Yeldon will need to explore backup plans, but Banyard and Gray do not instill much confidence even in a fabulous matchup against the Saints. Fantasy owners would be better off addressing a different backfield if possible for Week 16, or pray that one of Yeldon or Robinson progresses well during the week.
Practice reports will have to be monitored on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday among the fantasy community, but fantasy owners would be wise to search for backup options in championship week.
