NFL Injury Report, Week 8: Latest news, updates on Lamar Jackson, Breece Hall, more players for fantasy football

Fantasy managers can breathe a little easier heading into Week 8 with a comparatively light injury report across the league. Quarterback Lamar Jackson is expected to return for Baltimore's upcoming matchup following a multi-game absence due to a high-ankle sprain, which should provide a significant boost to the entire offensive unit including teammates Derrick Henry, Ja'Kobi Lane, Mark Andrews, and Zay Flowers.

Meanwhile, running back Breece Hall is projected to rejoin the Jets' lineup after missing their previous loss to Miami, potentially altering a backfield where Braelon Allen has recently excelled. In Arizona, rookie running back Jeremiyah Love aims to overcome an ankle issue ahead of a clash with Dallas, though Bam Knight's strong performances in his absence threaten to create a crowded committee.

Additionally, Minnesota's Aaron Jones sustained a knee injury late in Sunday's victory against Indianapolis, paving the way for Jordan Mason to potentially handle a larger share of the rushing duties.
