Week 4 Fantasy Football Practice News & Notes for Friday

Sep 29, 2017

Jaguars QB Blake Bortles (right wrist) took full practice reps all week. Bortles will be fine to face the Jets.

Vikings QB Sam Bradford (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4. He has been ruled out, so Case Keenum will get another start. He completed 25-of-33 passes for 369 yards and three touchdowns against the Bucs in Week 3, but the Lions are tougher against the pass (#8 in QB aFPA).

Redskins QB Kirk Cousins (not injury related) missed practice Friday. His absence was due to the birth of his child, so he’ll be fine to play on Monday night.

Colts QB Andrew Luck (right shoulder, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4. Luck needs to practice for two weeks or so before returning to game action. He’s supposedly targeting Week 6 for his return.

Broncos QB Paxton Lynch (right shoulder, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Jets QB Josh McCown (ribs) took full practice reps all week. McCown will be out there against Jacksonville.

Panthers QB Cam Newton (right shoulder) took limited practice reps all week. Newton was removed from the injury report, so he will play, but he hasn’t been his usually productive self this season. He’s running less by design — he’s averaging 4.7 attempts per game after averaging 6.0 attempts in 2016 and 8.3 attempts in 2015.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday. No worries here, outside of a bad matchup in Baltimore and Roethlisberger’s historically poor splits in early games on the road.
