Kevin Kolb Injury: Updates on Cardinals Star's Week 11 Status and Fantasy Value

Kevin Kolb has not played since the Arizona Cardinals' Week 8 collapse against the Baltimore Ravens, and it is not looking likely that he will rejoin the team in Week 11 against the San Francisco 49ers. John Skelton has lead the team to back-to-back victories over the St. Louis Rams and Philadelphia Eagles in Kolb’s absence, and the rumor is that the Cardinals may have a QB controversy on their hands.

Stay tuned here throughout the week to get the latest updates on Kolb’s status for Week 11 and the QB situation in Arizona.

Whether or not Kevin Kolb dresses is still up in the air, but even if he is on the sidelines, he won't be given the start.

CBS' Charlie Casserly Tweets that Kolb remains a game-time decision.

The Cardinals thought they would be in contention this year, but Kevin Kolb hasn't been as good as they hoped he would be, and now he's battling a nasty injury. 

NFL reporter Jason LaCanfora tweeted today an update on Kolb's status. 

Once thought to be a fantasy sleeper, Kolb should no longer be on your roster. His injury will keep him off the field for a while, and he serves you no purpose in fantasy football.

This of course doesn't sit well with a lot of fantasy owners, as many waited until the late rounds to take Kolb as their starting QB.

However, there is nothing they can do. It's unfortunate he suffered an injury, but it's a apart of the game and we all have to move on.

Darren Urban tweeted today that Kolb isn’t practicing, and head coach Ken Whisenhunt will not comment on the status of his quarterback situation.

Rotoworld points out that the Cardinals possibly have a major controversy on their hands if they win next week.

They noted:

"

Whisenhunt also refused to comment when asked whether John Skelton has permanently supplanted Kolb as the starting quarterback. There's "nothing to discuss," said the Cardinals' head coach. Skelton is tentatively expected to make at least one more start. If he knocks off 8-1 San Francisco, the Cards will undoubtedly have a full-blown quarterback controversy on their hands.

"

It will be interesting to see what direction the team goes in if they beat their hated division rival with Skelton under center. While he isn’t an excellent QB and Kolb cost the Cardinals a fortune, Skelton has been winning games. You definitely can’t discount that.
