Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Westbrook fractured two of his ribs during the opening drive of Sunday’s 23-17 loss to the Redskins. So, lending at least some comfort to Fantasy owners counting on Westbrook would be the fact he was able to continue playing -- with the help of a pain-killing injection -- after suffering the injury. It should also be noted that because the ribs are fractured, the healing process will be finite and his ability to manage the pain. It will undoubtedly lead to some "Dreaded Game-Time Decisions."
