When a player lands on the injury report, how likely are they to be back on the field within three weeks? You know the player has a significant injury but isn't likely to go on injured reserve. They're expected to miss time or have given a timeframe, but how often do they beat that timeline?

This insight tracks players from the moment they first appear on the injury report with a Questionable, Doubtful, or Out designation, then calculates the percentage who returned to play by week one, two, or three following that initial designation — giving you a fuller recovery window instead of just a single-week snapshot.

Some injuries clear up fast; others stretch closer to a month even when a player isn't headed for IR. This tool separates the two with real historical data, built from 10 years of verified practice participation across all 32 teams, so you can gauge whether a player's absence is likely a short blip or something that runs deeper into the season. Whether you're planning a multi-week lineup outlook, evaluating an IR stash timeline, or projecting a multi-week absence, know the real data before you commit.
