Britton was deemed fit to play earlier this week, so his absence appears to be tactical, which is obviously not good news for his fantasy prospects.
August 25, 2016
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Britton (illness) will be available for Saturday's match with Leicester City.

August 22, 2016

Britton signed a new contract that will keep him with Swansea until the summer of 2018, reports Sky Sports.
The opening match against Burnley this season was Britton's 514th time playing for the club since joining on loan in 2002, but did not face Hull last weekend due to illness.

April 9, 2016
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Britton (back) is out Saturday against Chelsea.
Britton has seen an increase in playing time lately, though his fantasy upside remains fairly limited.
April 7, 2016
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Britton is questionable for Saturday's game against Chelsea because of a back injury, the South Wales Evening Post reports.
Britton's role as a holding midfielder doesn't lend itself to much fantasy value, as evidenced by his zero goals and zero assists in 21 appearances (16 starts) this season.
January 14, 2016
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Britton's first-half substitutions was not injury related.
The defensive midfielder was the unfortunate victim of a tactical substitution triggered by the need to fill the gap at the left back after the early Kyle Naughton's dismissal. Britton ended up the game with one dribble, 28 passes and two interceptions in 42 minutes of action. The 33-year-old has found himself a surprising run of starts under interim manager Alan Curtis and already has amassed more appearances, starts and playing minutes then he had for the whole last season. Despite his run, though, he is not a fantasy factor in most formats.
