Benedikt Gimber - Busy defensively in loss Gimber made one tackle, four clearances and one block during Saturday's 3-1 loss against Wolfsburg.

Impact Gimber was one of his team's few players capable of salvaging some fantasy value with multiple defensive interventions but his performance was still far from stellar from an individual perspective. However, the center-back already proved himself a strong contributor last year and he'll hope to get more help from teammates to boost his numbers during upcoming matches.

Diant Ramaj - Allows three in debut Ramaj made two saves and conceded three goals during Saturday's 3-1 loss against Wolfsburg.

Impact Ramaj made his debut after joining on loan from Borussia Dortmund and didn't have exactly a dream performance here as he got beaten three times while only making a pair of saves. If Heidenheim's defense isn't able to be much better than this, the goalkeeper will definitely have a lot of action to learn and improve but his fantasy stock won't be so encouraging.

This is rough news for the goalie, as his return will depend on his development through recovery and the grade of the tear. He is their backup, so this isn't a major loss, but they will hope to have him as a depth option and see him back with the club as soon as possible.
