The Facts:
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb suffered an ankle injury following an 8-yard punt return in the third quarter of Sunday's blowout win against the Tennessee Titans. He was immediately ruled out for the remainder of the game. Cobb had three catches for 62 yards and a touchdown prior to the injury. In his post-game presser, head coach Mike McCarthy said "The training staff on the field did not give me anything to believe that it was very serious. But as you know with ankle sprains and joint injuries the next day is a huge indicator."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The always productive Cobb came through for fantasy owners once again, though it's hard not to obsess just a little about what more he might have done if not for the injury. It's also reasonable to wonder what the heck the Packers are doing having Cobb return kicks. We'll know more about the severity of Cobb's ankle sprain on Monday and will keep you posted on his status heading into Week 17.
