Injury Ryan Mathews injured in car accident     -- Wed Aug 1 3:40 pm --

Chargers' RB listed as day to day with sore elbow
San Diego Chargers running back Ryan Mathews is listed as "day to day" after getting banged up in a car accident. Mathews told reporters he banged an elbow "a little bit" and was sore on Tuesday. He said the accident occurred while he was driving a familiar road on his way to the team hotel after watching a movie at his home. "It's a freak thing that happened," he said. "I drive that corner every day going to work. I felt like I played about four games when I woke up this morning," Mathews said after sitting out Tuesday's practice. (ESPN)

FF Today's Take: This injury doesn't sound particularly serious for Mathews but considering you'll likely need to spend a first round selection to secure the highly-coveted running back in your pool, his recovery is worth monitoring as your fantasy draft approaches. Mathews is projected to hit new rushing heights this season and secure a position among the NFL's elite running backs.
