Impact Kerr doubled Toronto's advantage by converting Richie Laryea's cross in the 30th minute. Kerr also created two chances and made a tackle.

Kerr will likely not be a top option in the starting XI, though goalscoring like this in his limited chances could help keep him in the first team moving forward.

Questionable to play Saturday Kerr (foot) is questionable to play Saturday against Orlando City SC, manager John Herdman told John Molinaro of TFC Republic on Thursday.

Impact Kerr didn't play against Simcoe County in the Canadian Championship, and it remains to be seen if he'll be available for the weekend. In any case, Kerr has started just three games in the current MLS campaign and hasn't played more than 80 minutes in any match, so his potential absence shouldn't affect many fantasy lineup for this weekend's slate.

APRIL 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up foot injury Kerr is out for Wednesday's Canadian Championship match against Simcoe County Rovers due to a foot injury, according to manager John Herdman, per John Molinaro of TFC Republic.

Impact Kerr looks to be set to miss some time, as he is now out after appearing to go down with a foot injury training. Not much more is known on the issue at the moment, but this will be a somewhat significant loss, as he has started in three of the six matches he has been available for. The club will most likely turn to Prince-Osei Owusu to gain more time in place of Kerr, as they are very low in options in the attacking department. He will now hope for a return in the club's next contest against Orlando City on Saturday.

Assists against Atlanta Kerr assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 victory versus Atlanta United.

Could return Saturday Kerr (calf) could return to action Saturday against New York City FC, John Molinaro of TFC Republic reports.

Impact Kerr has yet to make his season debut in 2024, but he could be in line to feature against NYCFC. That said, even if he's available, his fantasy upside should be pretty low, as he's expected to be nothing more than a bench option in Toronto's attack.

Out two weeks Kerr (calf) set for two more weeks out, manager John Herdman told reporters.

Impact Kerr is still two weeks away from making his return to the first team. The forward will likely be targeting a March 16 trip to NYC FC for his next chance. Kerr made 23 appearances and scored five goals in 2023, but will likely be a depth option for 2024.

If Kerr can continue these improvements he could be an entirely serviceable option in 2024.
