How NFL injury reports impact NFL betting

Obviously, injuries will have an impact on any given game, especially to key players.

For example, if Bills QB Josh Allen gets sidelined with an injury, Buffalo won’t have that dynamic playmaker calling the shots. In theory, that Bills offense becomes less effective and powerful. Of course, the lower tier the player (franchise player to vital position player to back-up), the less direct impact that injury could have on the game’s outcome.

In that same vein, injuries can also affect the NFL betting odds. Going back to the previous example, Allen going down could result in a 3- or even 6-point swing in the point spread, depending on the replacement quarterback. At other positions, there might not be much of a shift in the spread. That is, unless a cluster of injuries at one position occurs. Then you might see more movement.
