I've been trying to plan my fantasy roster around injury updates, but lately the ESPN injury reports seem to change like every few hours. Last week a player was listed as questionable on Monday, then ruled out Tuesday morning right before kickoff. Is anyone else noticing these reports are less reliable than they used to be, or am I just checking too obsessively?
Don't rely on any single report as final - the constant updates you're seeing are actually pretty normal because teams themselves don't finalize injury decisions until the last possible moment, and ESPN is just reflecting that uncertainty. The reports aren't necessarily less reliable than before; they're just more transparent about how fluid the situation is. Your best move is to check the official team statements and beat reporters closer to game time rather than planning around Monday or Tuesday reports, since those early designations (questionable, doubtful) are genuinely uncertain until the team makes a final call.
