Fargas hurt? (1 Viewer)

Checked the Injury thread - nothing. But Rotoworld said he went out with a bum knee.

Anyone see the play or hear anything else?

To me, it looked like the defender (didn't catch the player as I wasn't paying close attention at that time) wrenched on Fargas' lower leg after Fargas was down on a goal-line run. Fargas started kicking at him to get him off of his leg, and I didn't see him back in after that play.

He had a pack of ice on his knee while sitting on the bench in the 4th Q.

per RotoworldJustin Fargas believes he has a sprained MCL right knee injury.Fargas was hurt late in the Raiders loss to the Colts and was on the bench much of the fourth quarter. Monitor the situation over the next couple of days as the Raiders have yet to disclose Fargas' status, but Dominic Rhodes, who filled in with Lamont Jordan inactive, could be the Raiders starting running back in Week 16.

i watched the game. It was when he ran in for his TD. But when he crossed the line he threw his hands up fired up and excited from scoring. Didnt look hurt, so it was surprising that he was injured

I don't think it's a lock that Rhodes would pick up the slack. Any chance Rhodes was active over Jordan so he could get a few carries against his old team? It is obvious that Kiffin hates both Rhodes and Jordan. Just because Rhodes got the call this week that doesn't mean squat. Having said all that you can be sure I'll be picking up Rhodes just in case (Jordan is already owned).

Any word out of Oakland on this?

I picked up Rhodes just in case. He did fine against the Colts with the limited opportunities he had.

Lamont hasn't been looking too good when he's been in the game...he's still complaining about his back.

This week they play the Jags, whose run D isn't too shabby...so pick up Rhodes if you're desperate (which I am).

Sprained MCL for Justin Fargas will keep him out for the last 2 games according to this link:
