Texans Beat: WR Will Fuller is making 'serious progress in all facets' of the offense

Aug 12, 2016

John Harris of Texans.com:

I’m not going to put anyone in the Hall of Fame after a training camp practice, but get ready, folks. Wide receiver Will Fuller is making serious progress in all facets of this offense. I don’t know how many different types of balls he caught during the day, but trust me when I say that the 49ers had issues with him in all areas on the field.

Fantasy Impact:

Fuller is competing with Cecil Shorts and Jaelen Strong for snaps, but it appears that he's off to a great start. The Texans are run-heavy, but there's room in the passing game for another fantasy relevant receiver.

DeVante Parker, Albert Wilson clear concussion protocol, will play Sunday

Dolphins WRs DeVante Parker and Albert Wilson have both cleared concussion protocol and were removed from the injury report.

Fantasy Impact:

Ryan Fitzpatrick gets his array of weapons against the Giants secondary that is now much weaker on paper after waiving Janoris Jenkins. It’s definitely been a good week for Parker. He gets a contract extension and is now cleared from his concussion.

Redskins place Paul Richardson on injured reserve

Washington Redskins

yesterday · 4:31 PM EST

The Redskins placed WR Paul Richardson on injured reserve with a hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact:

Richardson finishes the season with just 28 catches for 245 and two touchdowns. Richardson has not lived up to the five-year contract he received from Washington in 2018. He has 48 catches for 507 yards and just four touchdowns in 17 games since the start of the 2018 season. Rookie Kelvin Harmon will likely see more snaps as a result.

Jared Cook expected to play Monday night

Mike Triplett

yesterday · 3:21 PM EST

Saints head Sean Payton said he expects TE Jared Cook (concussion) to play Monday against the Colts.

Fantasy Impact:

Cook was a full participant in practice Friday. He left Sunday’s game early after catching his second touchdown pass against the 49ers but getting knocked out in the end zone. The extra day certainly had to help Cook, who will face a desperate Colts defense. But Cook has been rolling of late, scoring four touchdowns in the last four games. He should continue to be a favorite target for Drew Brees in their final home game of 2019.
