Overview

This skill monitors injury news across professional leagues to deliver clear fantasy impact assessments, backup player analysis, and estimated return timelines. It synthesizes injury reports, team announcements, and historical recovery data to produce actionable recommendations for roster management. The emphasis is on concise, copy-paste ready outputs you can use immediately in lineups or communications.

How this skill works

The skill ingests latest injury reports, verified team updates, and trusted beat-reporter tweets or articles. It classifies injuries by type and severity, estimates recovery windows using historical precedent and position-specific norms, and ranks fantasy impact based on usage patterns and projected snap/share loss. Outputs include recommended short-term moves, trade/waiver guidance, and suggested backups to start.

When to use it

Daily lineup check before game-day deadlines
After an injury update or questionable designation
When considering waiver claims or short-term trades
To evaluate long-term roster decisions after major injuries
During bye weeks to identify temporary starters

Best practices

Confirm source credibility before acting on a single report
Prioritize matchup and usage over name recognition for backups
Set clear windows (short, medium, long) for return estimates
Provide copy-ready roster moves and explanation for commissioners
Update recommendations as new official medical info emerges

Example use cases

Generate a quick game-day report: list injured players, expected replacements, and start/sit recommendation
Produce a waiver-wire target list after a key RB injury with projected touches and rest-of-season value
Create a trade advisory note estimating a player’s availability and proposing fair offers
Summarize a team’s injury situation with timelines for league group messaging or a newsletter
Assess fantasy playoff availability probability for players with mid-season injuries

FAQ

How accurate are return timeline estimates?

Estimates use historical averages and position-specific recovery norms; they reflect probability windows (short/medium/long) rather than guarantees and should be revised as new medical updates arrive.

Does the skill replace team medical reports?

No. It augments official communications by translating medical updates into fantasy-relevant outcomes and roster actions.
