The Facts:
Following up on a previous item. ... According to Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel staffer Tyler Dunne, Cobb's injury is worse than first believed. The WR will miss 6-8 weeks with a fractured fibula. Reported by FootballDiehards.com

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Well that's bad news -- especially after fantasy owners though they caught a break with initial reporting suggesting a two-week absence. The team is still hopeful James Jones can play this week after spraining a PCL, but receiving depth will be an issue with Cobb out for a month or more. Jarrett Boykin is the man most likely available on your waiver wires at the moment. Strike while the iron is hot. ... Stay tuned. We'll be following up.
