Falcons' Todd Gurley (knee) ruled out for Week 12's clash with Raiders
Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurley has been downgraded to out for Week 12's game against the Las Vegas Raiders.
What It Means:
Gurley has been downgraded to out after a limited practice on Friday and will not play against the Raiders in Week 12. Gurley has a long history of knee injuries, so his status for future weeks could certainly be in question, although no indication has been given. With Gurley out, Brian Hill is expected to operate as the lead back for Atlanta in Week 12 against a Raiders defense ranked 29th against running backs in numberFire's advanced stats.
The Falcons are 3.0-point underdogs against the Raiders in Week 12. Their implied team total of 25.25 points is the tenth-highest team total on Sunday's main slate, according to numberFire's DFS Heat Map.
