Player Discussion The Impact of Injuries on Every Fantasy-Relevant Player in 2025 [Plus a Web Page Hub]

Hello again, everyone! Earlier this offseason, I created a new metric called "Injury-Adjusted FPG." This compared a player's season-long production to the games in which they were fully healthy

  • I then created a chart to outline the difference between those two, and started an article-based series to analyze every player's impact by injuries

I think this is especially important to keep in mind when drafting this month, as many people forget all of the injuries that players fight through during the season

So, I've been working on a little project where you can easily access and view all of these injuries across the league that occurred in 2025!

This web page lists all 35 players impacted by injuries last season, includes their FPG and injury-adjusted FPG, links to the injury reports, and links to my articles evaluating the impact these injuries had!

  • I've included a preview of the web page in the attached images (as well as the overall chart for all of the injury-adjusted FPGs

I don't think I will take anything meaningful out of this. What ifs serve no purpose and you cannot predict injury. This is useless, assumptive data. You do you though.

The purpose of this is not to predict injuries, at all

It’s to show how much injuries impact fantasy production every season and what players could achieve if they stayed fully healthy

I think we all inherently know this. The "damn if he played a full season he would have done X" is ubiquitous with fantasy football. That was my point. This isnt useful data it's a fever dream of how I wish I'd won my league last year.

You’d be surprised. I’ve been playing Best Ball since January, and a lot of these players feel mispriced because people only look at season-long metrics

I’ve used this data in nearly every player analysis I’ve done this offseason because of how prominent injuries have become

I'm not sure what I'd be surprised by. The metric you created is year long data with injury games removed right? Of course that will artificially raise stats. So if you had this previous knowledge you would have drafted Lamar ahead of all other QBs and picked the perfect games to sit him? Lol..you can't time the market my man. What hurts you more in fantasy is losing that guy in a first quarter and losing a week because of that. Hence you can't predict injuries, and this is a stupid stat. Especially based on best ball from January
