Injuries continue to hit the NFL hard in 2024, with multiple star fantasy football players missing time early on this season. With four more teams on a bye this week — Kansas City, Minnesota, Miami, and the Los Angeles Rams — player availability is key.
Here's what we know about injured fantasy football players ahead of Week 6.
The Giants' leading rusher missed Week 5 due to a groin injury and was limited in practice on Wednesday. He did practice last Friday in a limited capacity as well.

Nabers missed the Giants' Week 5 win over Seattle as he goes through the concussion protocol. He still hasn't been cleared and did not practice with the team on Wednesday.
Moss left Cincinnati's Week 5 loss to Baltimore with an injury and did not practice on Wednesday.
Gesicki did not practice Wednesday after notching two catches for 31 yards in Week 5. This is the first time he's appeared on the injury report since Week 3; he hasn't missed any playing time so far.
Johnson was listed on the injury report last week but still played against Chicago. This could be something similar after he practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday.
Mooney was limited in practice Wednesday. His status remains uncertain but his practice participation could ramp up during the week.
White missed last week's loss to the Broncos and did not practice again on Wednesday. His status remains up in the air with Alexander Mattison set to start in his place if needed.
Meyers — the Raiders' top wide receiver with Davante Adams out — did not practice Wednesday. He played nearly every snap in Week 5 and that gives confidence he should be back in action in Week 6.
After playing well against the Colts in Week 4, Patterson missed last week's loss to the Cowboys. He did not practice Wednesday and Steelers coach Mike Tomlin says he will not play against the Raiders.
Warren missed the last two games with a knee injury but was back practicing Wednesday in a limited capacity. That improves his outlook for playing on Sunday, but later practices this week will be more telling.
The Chargers' second-string running back is still recovering from an ankle injury suffered against the Chiefs in Week 4. He did not practice Wednesday and his status is still up in the air.
Taylor missed last week's game against the Jaguars and did not practice Wednesday. He said this latest ankle sprain isn't as bad as the one he had in 2022, giving some hope he can be back in Week 6. Thursday's practice will likely decide his status for the Colts' game against Tennessee this week.
Richardson was out of the lineup for the Colts' Week 5 game with an oblique injury. He practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday and said he feels much better than last week.
Pittman did not practice Wednesday due to a back injury. He's been dealing with that issue for most of the season so far and has yet to miss time.
Downs had a season-high in targets in Week 5 but did not practice Wednesday due to a toe injury suffered during the loss to the Jaguars.
Smith was a full-go in practice Wednesday. He needs to get cleared by the team's medical staff and an independent neurologist but looks on track to play for the first time since Week 3.
Brown was a full participant in practice on Wednesday for the first time since Week 1. He should be back in the lineup for Week 6 against the Browns.
Chubb is back in practice this week as he works his way back from a knee injury he suffered last season. He was limited in practice all of last week and did not play, so it remains to be seen if that availability improves this week.
The Saints' leading receiver in yards and touchdowns did not practice Wednesday. There's no update yet on his status.
This marks the third week in a row that Kamara is listed on the report with hip and hand injuries. He did not practice Wednesday but played in Week 5 with the same injury designations.
Stevenson was benched to start Week 5 against the Dolphins but still managed 12 carries for 89 yards and a touchdown. He suffered what's been called a minor foot injury and missed practice on Wednesday.
Mixon's been out since Week 2 with a right ankle injury but still leads the team in rushing yards. Texans coach DeMeco Ryans says his status is still up in the air. Mixon practiced on Friday last week in a limited fashion but did not practice Wednesday.
Pierce has also missed the last three weeks with an injury but Ryans expects him to be back in action against the New England Patriots in Week 6.
Bateman had his best game of the year in Week 5 against Cincinnati but did not practice Wednesday due to injury.
Etienne injured his shoulder late in Jacksonville's Week 5 win over Indianapolis and was limited in practice Wednesday. The Jaguars fly to London on Thursday for their overseas game against Chicago in Week 6.
Moody injured his ankle during San Francisco's Week 5 loss to Arizona. He's expected to miss multiple games and the 49ers signed Matthew Wright to replace him this week.
