Through five weeks of the 2024-25 NFL season, the injury bug has run fairly rampant. Key players such as Nico Collins, Michael Pittman Jr., James Cook and more have been added to the injury reports, paving the way for backups and handcuffs to shine. The question is: how do I keep track of all of the pertinent injuries?
That’s where Injury Report Live comes into play. Every Friday at 3 p.m. ET streaming on @DKNetwork (X) and on DraftKings on YouTube, DraftKings Sportsbook analyst Steve Buchanan and NFL guru Meghan Townsley bring you Injury Report Live: your go-to spot for fantasy and betting advice based on the most notable injuries in the league.
This week, Steve and Meghan will break down the Week 6 injury report and give you top-tier DraftKings fantasy advice based on player statuses: with Nico Collins on the IR, is Tank Dell or Stefon Diggs a must-start? What is James Cooks’ injury status, and how would his absence affect the Bills offense vs. the Jets?
In Week 5, Meghan and Steve analyzed the Raiders’ current situation and lingering injuries—Steve did not hold back on his advice on Las Vegas:
Here is a sneak peek of names you could hear on Injury Report Live this Friday:
- James Cook (foot/toe)

- Malik Nabers (concussion)
- Jakobi Meyers (ankle)
- RB Zamir White (groin)
