1. Leonard Fournette Injury Update
Even though Jacksonville Jaguars running back Fournette left the game this past weekend it was reported that he would have been able to return. The game was already in hand so it isn't a surprise that Fournette didn't return.
.@Jaguars RB Leonard Fournette did not return, but after being spatted for right ankle injury, he was medically cleared to return to action.

The fact that he was medically cleared to return is a good sign and he looks like he will be a go in Week 7 against the Indianapolis Colts.

2. Tyreek Hill Injury Update
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill was hit hard in Sunday's games against the Steelers and went through the concussion protocol. He left the game at the end of the third quarter while returning a punt.
Since Hill didn't suffer a concussion he should be a full go against the Raiders in Week 7.

3. Golden Tate Injury Update
Bad news for the Detriot Lions and their best wide receiver Golden Tate. He was forced to leave Sunday's game early with a shoulder injury. He didn't hurt his shoulder before his great touchdown celebration which was him dropping the people's elbow on the football.
#Lions WR Golden Tate, who injured his shoulder Sunday, is expected to miss time, source says. Likely a few weeks. MRI will tell full story.

If he misses a few weeks this will hurt the offense and Matthew Stafford since Tate is the safety blanket for Stafford. Luckily the Lions are on a bye in Week 7 to give him extra time to rest.
