No structural damage for Reggie Bush's knee

Sep 24, 2012

An MRI showed Reggie Bush did not suffer any structural damage to his left knee and he could play Sunday at Arizona.

Fantasy Impact:

Don't go putting him in your lineup just yet. But, it's certainly good news from earlier today when a Palm Beach Post source said Bush could miss several weeks. Be sure to monitor the situation this week leading up to the game. The Fins play on the road so it will be a late game.

Daniel Thomas stepped in and had 19 carries for 69 yards and a TD in place of Bush, but it was just a 3.6 average to go along with his second fumble in two games. Rookie Lamar Miller added nine carries for 48 yards, however, it's said Miller still doesn't really know the playbook and is a raw pass blocker. Thomas could get a bulk of the carries, but Miller is sure to cut into that workload making it a committee.

Chargers to sign RB J.K. Dobbins on one-year deal

Former Ravens RB J.K. Dobbins is planning to sign with the #Chargers on a one-year deal. Electric when healthy, Dobbins — who averages 5.8 yards per carry in his career — reunites with OC Greg Roman and can hit the market again in March.

Related Players: Gus Edwards

Fantasy Impact:

Dobbins has had poor injury luck in his career, but has only managed 234 total rushes since being drafted in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft. This is a low-risk, high-reward move by the Chargers and might give them a runway to wait a little longer in the '24 Draft before they address the position.

Cowboys sign RB Royce Freeman

The Cowboys have signed running back Royce Freeman to a one-year deal. Freeman had 319 yards on 77 carries with 2 touchdowns last year for the Los Angeles Rams. He was 3rd round pick of Denver in '18.

Related Players: Rico Dowdle, Deuce Vaughn

Fantasy Impact:

Freeman hasn't rushed for 500 yards since 2018, his rookie season. This shouldn't have any impact on the team drafting at the position and/or bringing back Ezekiel Elliott.

The Eagles have paid another big-time, rising player. This time, WR DeVonta Smith gets a 3-year, $75M contract extension that includes $51M guaranteed.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, DeVante Parker, Parris Campbell

Fantasy Impact:

Great news for Jalen Hurts and the Eagles offense as a whole. Smith will continue his 1b role in which he finished the 2023 season as fantasy's WR22.
