Here are the latest injury updates from around the league as you enjoy Sunday Night Football: * Adam Thielen missed another game with his hamstring issue Sunday, but he should be back out there soon. âAll parties are optimisticâ that the Vikings will have their star receiver when they play a pivotal Week 15 game against the Chargers, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network (Twitter link). Thielen has only played eight games this season, and in two of those he played only a handful of snaps. * The Raiders have been pretty banged up recently, and they took another blow during their crucial loss to the Titans. Tight end Foster Moreau went down with a knee injury, and Raiders head coach Jon Gruden said after the game he could be done for the season. Moreau doesnât play a huge role as a pass-catcher, but he has had a couple of big games and has been playing around half of the teamâs offensive snaps. * Ravens fans were left holding their breath when breakout tight end Mark Andrews left their victory over the Bills and didnât return, but fortunately it doesnât appear to be anything too serious. Andrews suffered a contusion between his knee and thigh a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN.com, and the âindication is itâs nothing majorâ (Twitter link). Thatâs good news, but Baltimore does have a short week with a Thursday Night Football game against the Jets waiting. It wouldnât be surprising if Andrews misses that one, but it doesnât sound like itâll be a longterm absence. * Derrius Guice has had brutal injury luck so far in his young NFL career, so it was terrible to see the Redskins running back go down with another knee issue during their loss to the Packers. Fortunately it seems like he mightâve dodged a bullet, as Tom Pelissero of NFL Network tweets that the initial diagnosis is an MCL sprain. It seems like Guice could miss some time and potentially the rest of the season, but fortunately it doesnât appear to be anything long-term. Guice missed his entire rookie season due to a torn ACL that resulted in multiple infections, and then missed the first eight games of this season with a knee injury. * The Jaguars have been getting embarrassed weekly recently, and now things are getting even worse. On the heels of their 45-10 blowout loss to the Chargers, it looks like they could be without top receiver D.J. Chark moving forward. Chark left the game with an ankle injury, and his âleft foot was in a protective boot and he left the locker room using a scooterâ after the game, tweets Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com. Chark has been having a breakout year and has 881 yards with eight touchdowns, and it now seems like his sophomore campaign could be over. Weâll have more on all the other big injuries suffered today as soon as there are additional details to pass along. #AdamThielen #DerriusGuice #FosterMoreau
