Dallas Clark Injury: Updates on Colts Star's Week 10 Status and Fantasy Value

Dallas Clark suffered a significant injury to his lower leg in the Indianapolis Colts' Week 9 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Clark left the game in the second quarter after having just two catches and did not return.

Dallas Clark (fibula) is inactive today, according to NFL.com. Jacob Tamme is expected to start in his place.

Phillip B. Wilson confirmed via Twitter that Jim Caldwell said that the injury to Clark was significant and that it would last more than a week.

The growing fear now is that Clark could be done for the season.

Tom James has recently tweeted that exact thought. He reported that the Colts will know within a day or two and should announce his status for the rest of the season shortly after.

Jacob Tamme would start in place of Clark if he misses some time or the rest of the season. This is another blow to the 0-8 Colts, who are playing absolutely awful without Peyton Manning.

Rotoworld is saying that this would be the worst year of Dallas’ career if he were to be put on the I.R: “If Clark's year is over, it will finish as the most disappointing of his career to date. He was exposed as a blocker on the line and has struggled mightily with dropped passes.”

Fantasy owners should not have been starting Clark except in very deep leagues, so it should not have much of an impact on that front. Tamme cannot be relied on to contribute, just as Clark failed to do so on a regular basis.
