The Injury Index

Each listed player is weighted by availability status, then summed per team. A higher index means more — and more serious — absences. Every FBS team carrying at least one injury is listed.
3.0 Out (Season)2.0 Out1.5 Doubtful1.0 Questionable0.5 Probable

Sources & Movement

The ranking blends the RotoWire injury report with supplemental public injury reports. The ▲/▼ chips and the Biggest Movers tab track the RotoWire report week over week so comparisons stay like-for-like. NEW marks teams with no injuries on the prior report.

On Season-Ending Tags

Out-for-season entries share a long-range placeholder return date, so we treat them as long-term-out, not confirmed season-ending injuries.

What's Excluded

Non-injury absences (Transfer Portal, Suspension, Not Injury Related, Personal) and rows with no team listed are excluded, not estimated.

Ties & Snapshot

Tied index values share a rank with a T- prefix. Single snapshot ahead of kickoffs; statuses shift through gameday.

Illinois Football Injuries Headline the Report

The Fighting Illini carry 14 listed injuries, including 4 players with out-for-season tags (Tanner Hollinger, Grant Smith, BJ Thurman and Ca'Lil Valentine) and Alex Perry ruled out. The other 9 are Questionable tags that could go either way by kickoff — the volume that carries Illinois to an index of 23.

Tennessee Surges to No. 2 With the Heaviest Losses

Tennessee is the week's biggest mover among the top teams, jumping to 22 on the RotoWire report. It lists just 9 players, but 6 carry out-for-season tags (Ethan Davis, Joakim Dodson, Endrees Farroq, Jaedon Harmon, Wendell Moe and Jadais Richard), with Qua Moss also out. Fewer names than Illinois, heavier losses — the sharpest example of severity beating volume in this week's data.

South Alabama posted the largest single-week jump in the FBS, from 1 to 10 on the RotoWire report, with 4 players now listed (3 out for the season, 0 out, 1 questionable).

How the Injury Index Is Calculated

Every player on a team's report is weighted by availability status, then summed. The weights:

Out for Season / IR ×3.0  ·  Out ×2.0  ·  Doubtful ×1.5  ·  Questionable ×1.0  ·  Probable ×0.5

Non-injury absences (transfers, suspensions, personal matters, and 'not injury related' designations) are excluded, not estimated. Out-for-season tags carry a long-range placeholder return date, so we treat them as long-term-out rather than asserting a confirmed season-ending diagnosis. Teams tied on the index share a rank, shown with a T- prefix. This is a single snapshot ahead of Week 2 kickoffs; statuses shift through gameday.

About This College Football Injuries Study

This college football injuries study is compiled and maintained by the Grandstand data desk. We track availability designations across all 134 FBS programs each week, apply a consistent severity model, and refresh the ranking as reports change. The goal is a single, apples-to-apples view of injury burden that holds up from week to week -- not a collection of one-off headlines. Figures are drawn from published injury reports and cross-checked before publication; where sources disagree, we flag it rather than guess.

College Football Injury Report FAQ

Which college football team is the most injured right now?

Illinois tops the injury index this week at 23 with 14 listed injuries. Tennessee is a close second at 22 with the most out-for-season tags in the FBS.

Where can I find a college football injury report today?

This page is refreshed each week through the season. The interactive tracker at the top reflects the latest available designations for all 133 affected teams, so it doubles as a live college football injury report today.

What does "Out for Season" mean in this report?

It marks a player carrying a long-term or season-long absence on the source report. Because these entries use a placeholder return date, we weight them most heavily but don't assert a specific medical diagnosis.

How is the most-injured ranking decided?

Each listed player is weighted by status (Out for Season ×3 down to Probable ×0.5) and summed per team. A higher index means more — and more serious — absences. Ties share a rank.
