Injury Lower Leg
Est. Return 11/24/2024
Suffers broken fibula Wednesday
The Giants placed Schlottmann (leg) on the reserve/injured list Thursday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schlottmann suffered a broken fibula when he got rolled up during practice Wednesday, and while he won't need surgery, he's expected to be out for 8-to-10 weeks, per Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Schlottmann fractured his fibula in Week 17 of the 2022 season, but he was healthy for training camp and appeared in nine regular-season games (including three starts) for the Vikings in 2023. The timeline for his recovery would slate his return for late October or early November.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
In his third year in the league, Schlottmann will look to continue to serve as depth for Denver's interior offensive line. The 25-year-old can play both guard and center. It's this versatility that makes him an attractive option as the coaching staff aims to sort out their depth chart ahead of the 2021 campaign.
