Raiders will start Charlie Frye vs. Broncos

Dec 16, 2009

Oakland coach Tom Cable said on a conference call with Denver reporters this morning that Charlie Frye will be the Raiders quarterback Sunday against the Broncos.

That means Jamarcus Russell, the No. 1 overall draft pick in 2007, has again been demoted. Russell was benched last month for Bruce Gradkowski, who is now out with MCL sprains in both knees.

Eli Manning will hold a news conference Friday to announce his retirement, sources tell @JordanRaanan and me.

Fantasy Impact:

With two Super Bowl MVP nods and a .500 career record of 117-117 over 16 seasons with the Giants, it appears to be the end for Eli Manning. He'll retire with 57,023 passing yards and 366 passing touchdowns and somehow managed to never miss a contest due to injury. The Daniel Jones era in New York should officially begin in 2020.

#Broncos @I_CU_boy had cleanup procedure on right wrist. Source said no issues, all good. Recovery time minimal. Should barely impact offseason training. Lindsay was in discomfort during season. @MikeKlis had first. Lindsay plans to improve route running this offseason

Fantasy Impact:

This is Philip Lindsay's second wrist surgery in just a few years, but the Denver back should be good to go by OTAs.
