Monday brought a wave of injury news across football and basketball, with ripple effects from the NFL trade deadline to the Champions Classic.

In Kansas City, another wide receiver injury has the Chiefs positioned to be active in the trade market ahead of Tuesday's deadline, with GM Brett Veach's aggressive track record fueling expectations of a move. The Cowboys got bad news of their own: the running back coming off a breakout 77-yard game against the Colts is now banged up out of Week 9. Looking ahead to Thursday night against the Commanders, the latest Giants injury update has boosted the fantasy stock of Cam Skattebo and J.J. McCarthy, with knock-on effects for Malik Nabers, Isaiah Likely and Devin Singletary.

College hoops took a hit too. Kansas will be without Melvin Council Jr. for its Champions Classic showdown with Kentucky — a critical loss for the Jayhawks.

And two ranked college football teams enter the week with unsettled quarterback rooms: Michigan has reopened its QB battle ahead of the Oregon game, while No. 4 Indiana's Curt Cignetti declined to name a starter between the injured Josh Hoover and fill-in Grant Wilson for the matchup with No. 20 USC.
