September 2017 4for4 Player News Articles

Ravens TE Maxx Williams (ankle, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Ravens TE Ben Watson (calf, questionable) missed practice all week and is questionable for Week 4. With no practice participation this week, Watson looks very iffy for Sunday. The Ravens play early, but owners should get a Plan B ready to go.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (hamstring) took full practice reps again Friday. Walker was removed from the injury report so he’s fully expected to play in Houston on Sunday.

Jets TE Eric Tomlinson (elbow) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Browns TE Randall Telfer (knee, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 4.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (rib, sternum) took limited practice reps again Friday. Reed seems to be on track to play, but we should know more when Washington releases its final injury report on Saturday.

Chargers TE Sean McGrath (foot, questionable) took full practice reps Friday and is questionable for Week 4.

Jets TE Jordan Leggett (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Steelers TE Jesse James (shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Cardinals TE Jermaine Gresham (ribs) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Seahawks TE Jimmy Graham (ankle) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. Graham is good to go for Sunday.

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert (back, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4. Tyler Kroft played 98% of the snaps in Week 3.

Colts TE Jack Doyle (foot) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Doyle was removed from the injury report so he’s good to go for a tough matchup in Seattle.

Chargers WR Mike Williams (back, out) took limited practice reps all week and is out for Week 4.

Rams WR Sammy Watkins (concussion) took full practice reps again Friday. Watkins was removed from the injury report, so he’s a go for a nice matchup against Dallas.

Chiefs WR DeAnthony Thomas (shoulder) took full practice reps Thursday.

Jaguars WR Jaelen Strong (hamstring, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Dolphins WR Kenny Stills (hand, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 4. The full practice indicates that Stills will play against his old team in the London game.

Saints WR Willie Snead (hamstring, questionable) was limited Friday after taking full reps earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 4. This is a downgrade from earlier in the week, so Snead is in danger of missing Week 4. Brandon Coleman and Ted Ginn would stand to benefit.

Patriots WR Matt Slater (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4.

Panthers WR Curtis Samuel (back, out) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday and is out for Week 4.

Bengals WR John Ross (knee, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Colts WR Chester Rogers (hamstring, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Cardinals WR J.J. Nelson (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4. Nelson will probably play, but the likely return of John Brown complicates matters.

Broncos WR Cody Latimer (knee, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice Thursday and is questionable for Week 4.

Bengals WR Brandon LaFell (knee) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. LaFell is a go for Sunday.

Falcons WR Julio Jones (back) took limited practice reps all week. Jones was removed from the injury report, so he’s a go for a home matchup against Buffalo.

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins (knee) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Hopkins was removed from the injury report so fire him up against a sketchy Tennessee pass defense.

Dolphins WR Jakeem Grant (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4.

Lions WR Kenny Golladay (hamstring, questionable) missed practice again Friday and is questionable for Week 4. This was a midweek downgrade, so his Week 4 availability is in question. If he’s out, Marvin Jones and T.J. Jones should see a bump in targets, though it’s a bad matchup against a good Minnesota secondary.

Texans WR Will Fuller (shoulder) took full practice reps all week. Fuller will make his return against the Titans. Fuller’s speed makes him an interesting boom/bust play against a shaky Tennessee secondary.

Patriots WR Phillip Dorsett (knee) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week .

Titans WR Corey Davis (hamstring, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4. Davis has already been ruled out for Week 4. It’s good news for Rishard Matthews, who has posted 69 catches for 1,048 yards and 10 touchdowns in his last 16 games. That works out to 14.6 fantasy points per game (PPR), which is what T.Y. Hilton has scored as this year’s No. 18 receiver. Eric Decker should also see increased snaps against the Texans.

Redskins WR Jamison Crowder (hamstring) took limited practice reps Friday. Crowder is expected to play on Monday night, but keep an eye out for Washington’s final injury report on Saturday.

Raiders WR Michael Crabtree (chest, questionable) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday and is questionable for Week 4. This appears to be a midweek downgrade, but hopefully we’ll get more details on Saturday or Sunday morning. Owners should have a Plan B ready to go.

Bengals WR Cody Core (ribs) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Raiders WR Amari Cooper (knee) took full practice reps again Friday. Cooper was removed from the injury report so he’ll be out there in a tough matchup against Denver.

Browns WR Sammie Coates (hamstring, questionable) missed practice all week and is questionable for Week 4.

Steelers WR Martavis Bryant (illness) took full practice reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week. Bryant is "good to go” for a tough matchup in Baltimore.

Cardinals WR John Brown (quadricep, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4. Per HC Bruce Arians, Brown will play in Week 4. His presence puts a dent in the outlook for J.J. Nelson and Jaron Brown.

Browns WR Kenny Britt (knee) took full practice reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week. It looks like Britt will be fine for a tough matchup against Cincinnati.

Panthers WR Kelvin Benjamin (knee) took full practice reps again Friday. Benjamin was removed from the injury report so he’s good to go.

Seahawks WR Doug Baldwin (groin, questionable) missed practice again Thursday and is questionable for Week 4. Baldwin practiced on Friday and avoided any setbacks, so it appears that he’ll play on Sunday night. Owners may want to roster Tyler Lockett or Paul Richardson as a pivot if Baldwin is unable to play.

Rams WR Tavon Austin (concussion) took full practice reps again Friday.

Jets WR Robby Anderson (ankle) took full practice reps all week.

Patriots WR Danny Amendola (knee) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Amendola is a go for Week 4.

Colts WR Kamar Aiken (concussion) took full practice reps again Friday.

Lions RB Dwayne Washington (quadricep, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4. Jalen Richard will serve as Marshawn Lynch’s primary backup in Week 4.

Falcons RB Terron Ward (neck, shoulder, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4.

Giants RB Shane Vereen (calf) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week. Vereen was removed from the injury report so he’ll be out there against the Bucs.

Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart (not injury related) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday. Stewart will be fine to face New England. It’s a good matchup, but game script could work against Stewart if the Panthers fall behind early.

Raiders RB Jalen Richard (calf) took full practice reps again Friday. With DeAndre Washington out, Richard will serve as Marshawn Lynch’s primary backup in Week 4. Normally, he’d have some Sneaky Start potential in this role, but it’s a tough matchup against Denver.

Seahawks RB C.J. Prosise (ankle, doubtful) missed practice again Thursday and is doubtful for Week 4. Pete Carroll suggested that J.D. McKissic could absorb some of Prosise’s work in the passing game in Week 4.

Saints RB Adrian Peterson (not injury related) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday. Peterson will play against Miami.

Redskins RB Samaje Perine (hand) took full practice reps again Friday.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy (wrist) took full practice reps all week. McCoy will be fine to face Atlanta.

Colts RB Marlon Mack (shoulder, out) took limited practice reps again Friday and is out for Week 4.

Saints RB John Kuhn (biceps) was removed from the injury report Friday.

Redskins RB Rob Kelley (rib) took limited practice reps again Friday. Kelley seems to be on track to play, but we’ll know more on Saturday when the final MNF injury report is released.

49ers RB Kyle Juszczyk (concussion, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4.

Browns RB Duke Johnson (shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Johnson was removed from the injury report so he’ll play against Cincy.

49ers RB Carlos Hyde (hip, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 4. Hyde is being described as a game-time decision by HC Kyle Shanahan. The 49ers play in the late round of games on Sunday, so owners will need to have a Plan B ready if he can’t play. Hopefully, we’ll have a better idea of his status by Sunday morning, but for now we’re expecting that he’ll play.

Colts RB Frank Gore (not injury related) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday. Gore will be fine for a tough matchup in Seattle, though the Seahawks have struggled against the run this year.

Chargers RB Melvin Gordon (knee, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 4. The full practice indicates that he’ll be fine to face Philadelphia. Branden Oliver is his backup.

Jets RB Matt Forte (knee, toe, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 4. ESPN’s Rich Cimini said that the Jets will “lean heavily” on Powell if Forte can’t play. Powell should serve as the lead back against the Jaguars, who are No. 12 in RB aFPA. However, the Jaguars have given up sizable yardage games to Alex Collins (82 yards), Derrick Henry (92 yards, touchdown), and Lamar Miller (65 yards) in each of the first three weeks. As the lead back in the final four games of last season, Powell averaged 23.7 fantasy points (PPR) and was second only to LeVeon Bell at his position in that span. When 4for4’s Joe Holka studied Powell for his Rushing Expectation series, he noted that Powell has “rare finishing ability” and “attacks defenses and runs with authority.” Holka also described himself as “a fan of Powell’s talent.” Powell hasn’t run the ball as well this year, but this should be his chance to get into a rhythm.

Texans RB Tyler Ervin (shoulder) took full practice reps all week.

Giants RB Orleans Darkwa (back, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 4.

Browns RB Isaiah Crowell (shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. He was removed from the injury report, so he’ll play against Cincinnati.

Broncos RB Jamaal Charles (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday. Charles is a go to face Oakland. He looked like his old self in Week 3.

Patriots RB Rex Burkhead (ribs, doubtful) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is doubtful for Week 4. It looks like he’s making progress, but he’s not going to play against Carolina. Dion Lewis picked up his snaps in Week 3.

Rams RB Malcolm Brown (hamstring) took full practice reps all week.

Texans RB Alfred Blue (ankle) took full practice reps all week.

Bengals RB Giovani Bernard (thigh) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Bernard was removed from the injury report so he’ll be fine to face Cleveland.

Steelers RB LeVeon Bell (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday. Bell is good to go for Week 4.

Dolphins RB Jay Ajayi (knee, questionable) took full practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 4. The full practice indicates that he’ll play against New Orleans in the London game. He should have a very productive day after a disappointing outing against the Jets.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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).

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

Ravens TE Maxx Williams (ankle) missed practice again Thursday.

Ravens TE Ben Watson (calf) missed practice again Thursday. Watson’s status on Friday will be key for his Week 4 availability.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (hamstring) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday. Walker will be good to go to face Houston.

Jets TE Eric Tomlinson (elbow) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Browns TE Randall Telfer (knee) missed practice again Thursday.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (rib, sternum) took limited practice reps Thursday. Reed seems to be progressing, but the Redskins play on Monday night, so owners will have another tough decision on their hands. Vernon Davis is the ideal pivot. Since last season, in the five games that Reed has missed, Davis has averaged 3.8 catches for 49 yards and 0.40 touchdowns.

Jets TE Jordan Leggett (knee) missed practice again Thursday.

Steelers TE Jesse James (shoulder) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Cardinals TE Jermaine Gresham (ribs) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Seahawks TE Jimmy Graham (ankle) did not practice Wednesday. Graham missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday and ultimately suited up on Sunday.

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert (back) missed practice again Thursday. He’s not expected back this week. Tyler Kroft played 98% of the snaps in Week 3.

Colts TE Jack Doyle (foot) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Doyle will play, but he has a tough matchup with a talented Seattle secondary.

Chargers WR Mike Williams (back) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Rams WR Sammy Watkins (concussion) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Watkins continues to work his way through the concussion protocol.

Jaguars WR Jaelen Strong (hamstring) missed practice again Thursday.

Dolphins WR Kenny Stills (hand) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Stills should be fine to face the Saints. He has seen 15 targets in his first two games with Jay Cutler, and he’s played 93% of the snaps.

Patriots WR Matt Slater (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Panthers WR Curtis Samuel (back) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Bengals WR John Ross (knee) missed practice again Thursday. Ross is not looking good for Week 4.

Colts WR Chester Rogers (hamstring) missed practice again Thursday.

Cardinals WR J.J. Nelson (hamstring) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Nelson played last week so he should be fine to face San Francisco. Keep an eye on John Brown’s status before plugging Nelson into your lineup.

Broncos WR Cody Latimer (knee) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Bengals WR Brandon LaFell (knee) took limited practice reps again Thursday. LaFell has been able to produce with Tyler Eifert sidelined, but a sore knee isn’t helping his Sneaky Start status.

Falcons WR Julio Jones (back) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Jones is expected to play through the injury.

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins (knee) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Hopkins should be fine for a good matchup against a struggling Tennessee secondary.

Dolphins WR Jakeem Grant (ankle) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Lions WR Kenny Golladay (hamstring) missed practice Thursday after taking limited reps Wednesday. This is a midweek downgrade, so his Week 4 availability is in question. If he’s out, Marvin Jones and T.J. Jones should see a bump in targets.

Texans WR Will Fuller (shoulder) took full practice reps again Thursday. Fuller will make his return against the Titans. Fuller’s speed makes him an interesting boom/bust play against a shaky Tennessee secondary.

Patriots WR Phillip Dorsett (knee) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Titans WR Corey Davis (hamstring) missed practice again Thursday. Davis has already been ruled out for Week 4. It’s good news for Rishard Matthews, who has posted 69 catches for 1,048 yards and 10 touchdowns in his last 16 games. That works out to 14.6 fantasy points per game (PPR), which is what T.Y. Hilton has scored as this year’s No. 18 receiver. Eric Decker should also see increased snaps against the Texans.

Raiders WR Michael Crabtree (chest) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Crabtree looks like he’ll be active for a tough matchup in Denver.

Bengals WR Cody Core (ribs) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Raiders WR Amari Cooper (knee) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Cooper is fully expected to play in a tough matchup in Denver.

Browns WR Sammie Coates (hamstring) missed practice again Thursday.

Steelers WR Martavis Bryant (illness) missed practice again Thursday. Bryant should be fine to face Baltimore, though it’s a tough road matchup.

Cardinals WR John Brown (quadricep) took limited practice reps Wednesday. This is an upgrade from last week. Brown may be able to play against San Francisco, but he’s hard to trust at this point. His potential return would put a dent in J.J. Nelson’s upside.

Browns WR Kenny Britt (knee) missed practice again Thursday. Britt should be fine to play against the Bengals, but this is worth monitoring on Friday.

Panthers WR Kelvin Benjamin (knee) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday. Benjamin looks like a full go for a nice matchup against New England.

Seahawks WR Doug Baldwin (groin) did not practice Wednesday. Pete Carroll expects Baldwin to play in Week 4. If he’s out, Tyler Lockett and Paul Richardson will become Sneaky Starts in a great matchup against the Colts.

Rams WR Tavon Austin (concussion) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Jets WR Robby Anderson (ankle) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Patriots WR Danny Amendola (knee) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Amendola should be able to play through the injury again this week.

Lions RB Dwayne Washington (quadricep) missed practice again Thursday.

Falcons RB Terron Ward (neck, shoulder) missed practice again Thursday.

Giants RB Shane Vereen (calf) missed practice again Thursday. Vereen looks iffy for Week 4. With Orleans Darkwa also missing practice, Paul Perkins could see a large workload or the Giants could elect to work rookie Wayne Gallman into the mix.

Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart (not injury related) was added to the injury report Thursday after missing practice. This looks like a veteran’s day off. The Patriots are No. 30 in RB aFPA, so if the Panthers can keep it close, Stewart is likely to produce.

Raiders RB Jalen Richard (calf) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Seahawks RB C.J. Prosise (ankle) did not practice Wednesday. Pete Carroll suggested that J.D. McKissic could absorb some of Prosise’s work in the passing game in Week 4.

Saints RB Adrian Peterson (not injury related) was added to the injury report Thursday after missing practice. Peterson “tweaked his knee” per Ian Rapoport, but the Saints aren’t listing it as a knee injury on the injury report.

Redskins RB Samaje Perine (hand) took full practice reps Thursday.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy (wrist) took full practice reps again Thursday. McCoy should be fine to face Atlanta. The Falcons own the No. 28 RB aFPA and McCoy has averaged 5.51 YPC in 15 games held either in a dome or in a stadium with a retractable roof.

Colts RB Marlon Mack (shoulder) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. Mack’s return makes it possible that he’ll play against Seattle.

Saints RB John Kuhn (biceps) was added to the injury report Thursday after missing practice.

Redskins RB Rob Kelley (rib) took limited practice reps Thursday. Kelley practiced last week before ultimately sitting out.

49ers RB Kyle Juszczyk (concussion) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Browns RB Duke Johnson (shoulder) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Johnson should be available to face Cincinnati. After a very quiet Week 1 (2 touches, 20 yards), Johnson has 15 touches for 184 yards and a touchdown over the past two weeks.

49ers RB Carlos Hyde (hip) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Hyde should be fine to face Arizona.

Colts RB Frank Gore (not injury related) was added to the injury report Thursday after missing practice. This looks like a veteran’s day of rest for Gore.

Chargers RB Melvin Gordon (knee) did not practice Wednesday. Gordon is expected to play this week, but given a tough matchup against Philadelphia, he’s not a sure bet to produce at his usual levels.

Jets RB Matt Forte (knee, toe) missed practice again Thursday. ESPN’s Rich Cimini said that the Jets will “lean heavily” on Powell if Forte can’t play. Powell should serve as the lead back against the Jaguars, who are No. 12 in RB aFPA. However, the Jaguars have given up sizable yardage games to Alex Collins (82 yards), Derrick Henry (92 yards, touchdown), and Lamar Miller (65 yards) in each of the first three weeks.

Texans RB Tyler Ervin (shoulder) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Giants RB Orleans Darkwa (back) missed practice again Thursday. Shane Vereen is also missing practice. This means Paul Perkins could be in for a larger than usual workload in Week 4.

Browns RB Isaiah Crowell (shoulder) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Crowell has had a tough start to the season and things aren’t going to get much easier against the Bengals (No. 10 in RB aFPA). He has a great matchup against the Jets in Week 5.

Broncos RB Jamaal Charles (not injury related) did not practice Wednesday. Charles is just getting his usual midweek rest.

Patriots RB Rex Burkhead (ribs) missed practice again Thursday. It appears that Burkhead will sit out another week. Dion Lewis took over his snaps in Week 3.

Rams RB Malcolm Brown (hamstring) practiced fully Wednesday.

Texans RB Alfred Blue (ankle) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Bengals RB Giovani Bernard (thigh) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Bernard should be fine to face Cleveland, but any injury to Bernard or Jeremy Hill would seem to bode well for Joe Mixon.

Steelers RB LeVeon Bell (not injury related) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday.

Dolphins RB Jay Ajayi (knee) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday. Ajayi is expected to play in a nice matchup against New Orleans.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger (not injury related) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday.

Panthers QB Cam Newton (right shoulder) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Newton 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.

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

Jaguars QB Blake Bortles (right wrist) took full practice reps again Thursday. Bortles should be fine to face the Jets.

Ravens TE Maxx Williams (ankle) did not practice Wednesday.

Ravens TE Ben Watson (calf) did not practice Wednesday. Watson’s age makes any appearance on the injury report concerning, but he’s still on track to play against the Steelers. He has posted two usable fantasy lines in a row.

Titans TE Delanie Walker (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday. Walker is considered “day-to-day” with the injury, but is expected to play against Houston.

Jets TE Eric Tomlinson (elbow) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Browns TE Randall Telfer (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

Jets TE Jordan Leggett (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

Steelers TE Jesse James (shoulder) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert (back) did not practice Wednesday. He’s not expected back this week. Tyler Kroft played 98% of the snaps in Week 3.

Colts TE Jack Doyle (foot) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Doyle should be fine to face Seattle.

Jaguars WR Jaelen Strong (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.

Dolphins WR Kenny Stills (hand) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Stills should be fine to face the Saints. He has seen 15 targets in his first two games with Jay Cutler, and he’s played 93% of the snaps.

Patriots WR Matt Slater (hamstring) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Panthers WR Curtis Samuel (back) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Bengals WR John Ross (knee) did not practice Wednesday. The rookie’s week is not off to a good start.

Colts WR Chester Rogers (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.

Bengals WR Brandon LaFell (knee) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Falcons WR Julio Jones (back) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Jones is expected to play through the injury.

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins (knee) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Hopkins should be fine for a good matchup against a struggling Tennessee secondary.

Dolphins WR Jakeem Grant (ankle) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Lions WR Kenny Golladay (hamstring) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Texans WR Will Fuller (shoulder) practiced fully Wednesday. Fuller seems to be on track to make his 2017 debut in a good matchup with a Tennessee defense that is No. 31 in WR aFPA.

Patriots WR Phillip Dorsett (knee) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Titans WR Corey Davis (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday. Davis has already been ruled out for Week 4. It’s good news for Rishard Matthews, who has posted 69 catches for 1,048 yards and 10 touchdowns in his last 16 games. That works out to 14.6 fantasy points per game (PPR), which is what T.Y. Hilton has scored as this year’s No. 18 receiver. Eric Decker should also see increased snaps against the Texans.

Bengals WR Cody Core (ribs) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Packers WR Randall Cobb (chest) practiced fully Wednesday. Cobb was removed from the injury report so it looks like he’s a go for Thursday Night Football.

Browns WR Sammie Coates (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.

Steelers WR Martavis Bryant (illness) did not practice Wednesday. This shouldn’t keep Bryant out of Week 4, but with a road game against a tough defense, this is not a prime blowup spot for the boom-or-bust receiver.

Browns WR Kenny Britt (knee) did not practice Wednesday. This looks like a maintenance day for the vet, but we’ll monitor his practice activity this week.

Panthers WR Kelvin Benjamin (knee) did not practice Wednesday. Benjamin stretched with the team, which is a relatively good sign for his Week 4 availability. He’s a player to monitor closely this week.

Jets WR Robby Anderson (ankle) practiced fully Wednesday.

Patriots WR Danny Amendola (knee) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Owners should get used to seeing Amendola on the injury report. He played 49% of the snaps in Week 3.

Colts WR Kamar Aiken (concussion) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Lions RB Dwayne Washington (quadricep) did not practice Wednesday.

Falcons RB Terron Ward (neck, shoulder) did not practice Wednesday.

Giants RB Shane Vereen (calf) did not practice Wednesday. Orleans Darkwa is also hobbled. Rookie Wayne Gallman could split the workload with Paul Perkins in Week 4.

Packers RB Ty Montgomery (wrist) practiced fully Wednesday. Montgomery was removed from the injury report, so he’s good to go for Thursday Night Football.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy (wrist) practiced fully Wednesday. McCoy should be good to go to face Atlanta in the dome.

Colts RB Marlon Mack (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday. It looks like Mack may miss another week.

Browns RB Duke Johnson (shoulder) took limited practice reps Wednesday. It’s a new injury for Johnson, but the limited Wednesday practice indicates that he’ll be fine to face Cincinnati.

Jets RB Matt Forte (knee, toe) did not practice Wednesday. Forte is dealing with turf toe and is not expected to play in Week 4. The Jets signed Travaris Cadet to shore up the depth chart.

Texans RB Tyler Ervin (shoulder) practiced fully Wednesday.

Giants RB Orleans Darkwa (back) did not practice Wednesday. He’s been pushing Paul Perkins for snaps, but his Week 4 availability is in doubt.

Browns RB Isaiah Crowell (shoulder) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Crowell has had a tough start to the season and things aren’t going to get much easier against the Bengals (No. 10 in RB aFPA). He has a great matchup against the Jets in Week 5.

Patriots RB Rex Burkhead (ribs) did not practice Wednesday. Burkhead may have to sit out another week. Dion Lewis took over his snaps in Week 3.

Texans RB Alfred Blue (ankle) practiced fully Wednesday.

Bengals RB Giovani Bernard (thigh) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Bernard should be fine to face Cleveland, though he has taken a backseat to Joe Mixon in the Cincinnati backfield.

Steelers RB LeVeon Bell (not injury related) did not practice Wednesday. It’s probably just a rest day for Bell.

Dolphins RB Jay Ajayi (knee) did not practice Wednesday. Joe Schad of the Palm Beach Post reports that Ajayi is expected to play in Week 4.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger (not injury related) did not practice Wednesday. It’s a rest day for Big Ben, so he should be fine to face Baltimore. In his last three regular season games in Baltimore, he has averaged 237 yards with 0.33 touchdowns and 1.33 interceptions. Not good.

Panthers QB Cam Newton (right shoulder) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Newton should be able to play against New England, but he doesn’t look like the same fantasy player that we’ve seen in years past.

Jets QB Josh McCown (ribs) practiced fully Wednesday. McCown will be out there against Jacksonville.

Colts QB Andrew Luck (right shoulder) did not practice Wednesday. Luck needs to practice for two weeks or so before returning to game action. He’s supposedly targeting Week 6 for his return.

Vikings QB Sam Bradford (knee) did not practice Wednesday. The Vikings are hoping Bradford can return this week. Stay tuned.

Jaguars QB Blake Bortles (right wrist) practiced fully Wednesday. Bortles should be fine to face the Jets.

Jay Ajayi left the game early in the first quarter favoring his left arm or wrist, per ESPN's James Walker. He returned for the start of the Dolphins' second drive.

Ravens WR Jeremy Maclin underwent concussion protocol after falling and hitting his head during an interception in the second quarter against Jacksonville. He was cleared to return at the start of the second half.

After taking a hard hit on his left shoulder, Steeler TE James left the game for a series, then returned but took himself back out after one play. He was examined in the sideline medical tent before leaving for the locker room with his shoulder pads off, and was declared questionable to return. He made his return in the third quarter.

Colts WR Kamar AIken OUT with concussion.

Ravens TE Maxx Williams (ankle, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3.

Colts TE Brandon Williams (calf, questionable) took full practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 3.

Jets TE Will Tye (illness, questionable) missed practice Friday and is questionable for Week 3.

Jets TE Eric Tomlinson (elbow, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3.

Browns TE Randall Telfer (knee) took full practice reps all week.

Jets TE Neal Sterling (ankle) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week .

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (rib, sternum, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 3. Described as “not healthy right now” by his head coach, Reed has a chest injury that he may be able to play through, presuming he can handle the pain. On Thursday, Jay Gruden said, “The pain is becoming manageable.” On Friday, Reed said that he considers himself a “game-time decision.” We’ll continue to monitor his status, but his owners may want to get a Plan B ready to go. Vernon Davis was serviceable (3.5-47-0.25) in the four games that Reed missed last year. Better yet, Jared Cook plays in the same game and looks like a nice streaming option against Washington.

Bills TE Nick O'Leary (hamstring) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week .

Bears TE Zach Miller (not injury related) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday. Miller has the sixth most targets at his position through two weeks.

Jets TE Jordan Leggett (knee, doubtful) missed practice all week and is doubtful for Week 3.

Steelers TE Jesse James (ankle) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. James should be able to play against Chicago.

Saints TE Michael Hoomanawanui (illness) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday.

Broncos TE Jeff Heuerman (shoulder) took full practice reps again Friday.

Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski (groin, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 3. Gronk said the injury wasn’t serious and it looks like he’s on track to play against Houston. ESPN writer Mike Reiss said that Gronk is “good to go” to face Houston.

Texans TE Ryan Griffin (concussion) took full practice reps all week.

Cardinals TE Jermaine Gresham (ribs) took limited practice reps again Friday. Gresham is expected to play in Week 3.

Seahawks TE Jimmy Graham (ankle, questionable) missed practice again Thursday and is questionable for Week 3. Graham “should be fine” to play, per head coach Pete Carroll. The matchup against Tennessee is pretty good, but he has not played well this year.

Giants TE Evan Engram (concussion) took limited practice reps all week. Engram should be good to go to face Philadelphia.

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert (back, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. With Eifert out, Tyler Kroft will likely draw the start, but C.J. Uzomah will also be involved. Uzomah was actually more productive while Eifert was out early in the 2016 season.

Raiders TE Jared Cook (shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Cook is good to go for a nice matchup against Washington.

Bills TE Charles Clay (knee) took full practice reps again Friday. Clay will be fine to face Denver.

Texans TE Stephen Anderson (concussion) took full practice reps again Friday. Anderson may see starter’s snaps with C.J. Fiedorowicz out.

Bears WR Kendall Wright (shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Wright will be fine to face Pittsburgh. Adam Thielen managed 5 catches for 44 yards out of the slot with Case Keenum throwing the ball, so Wright is a solid be to post 10+ fantasy points in PPR formats.

Cowboys WR Terrance Williams (ankle) missed practice Friday. If Williams can’t play, Brice Butler would likely pick up most of his snaps.

Chargers WR Mike Williams (back, out) took limited practice reps all week and is out for Week 3.

Bears WR Markus Wheaton (finger) was removed from the injury report Friday. It looks like Wheaton will make his Bears debut this week.

Broncos WR Demaryius Thomas (hamstring) took full practice reps again Friday. Thomas will be fine to face Buffalo.

Jaguars WR Jaelen Strong (hamstring, out) missed practice again Friday and is out for Week 3.

Eagles WR Torrey Smith (illness, questionable) missed practice Friday and is questionable for Week 3.

Patriots WR Matt Slater (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3.

Bengals WR John Ross (illness, out) missed practice again Friday and is out for Week 3.

Colts WR Chester Rogers (hamstring, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3.

Seahawks WR Paul Richardson (finger) took full practice reps again Thursday. Richardson should play, but may have fallen behind Tyler Lockett on the Seattle depth chart.

Dolphins WR DeVante Parker (ankle, questionable) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday and is questionable for Week 3. The full participation indicates that Parker is good to go for a great matchup against the Jets.

Packers WR Jordy Nelson (quadricep, questionable) took full practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. Nelson called the injury a “charley horse,” so we’re expecting the usual Jordy in Week 3.

Cardinals WR J.J. Nelson (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Friday. Nelson is off to a great start, but we’ll have to wait until Saturday before we have a better idea of his status for Monday night’s game against Dallas. Jaron Brown wouldn’t be a bad fallback option for those owners planning to start Nelson this week.

Ravens WR Chris Matthews (ankle, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3.

Dolphins WR Jarvis Landry (knee, questionable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3. Landry is on track to play against the Jets. In his last two games against the Jets in New York, he has caught a total of 16 passes for 273 yards and two touchdowns.

Chargers WR Dontrelle Inman (groin) took full practice reps all week.

Jaguars WR Allen Hurns (shoulder) took full practice reps all week. It looks like Hurns is a go for the London game. He has the best matchup of any of the Jacksonville receivers since he plays in the slot.

Patriots WR Chris Hogan (knee, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. Hogan should be out there against Houston. His upside is capped somewhat by the likely return of Danny Amendola.

Steelers WR Darrius Heyward-Bey (illness) took full practice reps again Friday.

Texans WR Will Fuller (shoulder, out) took limited practice reps all week and is out for Week 3.

Broncos WR Bennie Fowler (concussion, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3.

Texans WR Bruce Ellington (concussion) took full practice reps all week.

Patriots WR Phillip Dorsett (knee, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. With Danny Amendola possibly making his return, Dorsett’s role may be scaled back in Week 3 even if he does play.

Redskins WR Josh Doctson (hamstring) took full practice reps all week.

Titans WR Corey Davis (hamstring, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. Taywan Taylor should play an increased role.

Raiders WR Amari Cooper (knee) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Cooper is good to go to face Washington. Due to how and where the Raiders use Cooper, he should avoid Josh Norman for most of the game.

Packers WR Randall Cobb (chest, doubtful) missed practice all week and is doubtful for Week 3. It doesn’t look like he’ll play in Week 3. if he’s out, Jordy Nelson, Davante Adams and Geronimo Allison get a bump. In 12 games that either Cobb or Nelson have missed since the 2015 season, Adams has seen 8.9 targets per game, which represents a 24% increase over the 7.2 targets he typically sees with the Green Bay receiving corps at full strength.

Browns WR Sammie Coates (hamstring, doubtful) missed practice all week and is doubtful for Week 3.

Bills WR Kaelin Clay (foot) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week .

Ravens WR Michael Campanaro (ankle, questionable) took full practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 3.

Cowboys WR Brice Butler (ankle) took limited practice reps Friday.

Cardinals WR John Brown (quadricep) missed practice again Friday. We consider Brown doubtful for Monday night at this point.

Browns WR Kenny Britt (knee) took full practice reps all week. Britt had a meeting with Hue Jackson about his lack of effort, which is problematic on many levels. Rashard Higgins looks like the WR1 in Cleveland.

Panthers WR Kelvin Benjamin (knee) took full practice reps again Friday. Benjamin will play through the knee and rib injuries. He has a great matchup with the Saints and with Greg Olsen out, he may see even more usage in Week 3.

Giants WR Odell Beckham (ankle) took limited practice reps all week. Beckham’s removal from the injury report indicates that he’s nearing full health. He confirmed as much, saying that he expects to play “a lot more” in Week 3. He’s trending towards WR1 status, but is probably a fantasy WR2 until he looks more like himself.

Seahawks WR Doug Baldwin (not injury related) was removed from the injury report Thursday.

Jets WR Robby Anderson (knee) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Patriots WR Danny Amendola (concussion, knee, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. Amendola says he’s in for Week 3. In the 8 games that Julian Edelman has missed since 2013, Amendola has averaged 5.4 catches for 54 yards and 0.12 touchdowns per game.

Colts WR Kamar Aiken (hip, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3.

Dolphins RB Damien Williams (rib, questionable) took full practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 3.

Ravens RB Terrance West (calf, questionable) took full practice reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3. We’re expecting Javorius Allen to lead the backfield in touches whether or not West is able to play. It does look like West will play after a full practice on Friday.

Lions RB Dwayne Washington (quadricep, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. Zach Zenner will replace Washington’s role in the Detroit offense. Zenner could see a goal line carry or two.

Raiders RB DeAndre Washington (hamstring) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week.

Falcons RB Terron Ward (neck, shoulder, out) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday and is out for Week 3.

Redskins RB Chris Thompson (back) took full practice reps all week. Thompson may see a few extra touches since he’s been so efficient in the first two games.

Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart (not injury related) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday. Stewart is a good bet for a touchdown in a great matchup against the Saints.

Raiders RB Jamize Olawale (quadricep) took full practice reps all week.

Titans RB DeMarco Murray (hamstring, questionable) returned to take limited reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3. Murray is looking iffy for Week 3, despite the limited practice. If he’s out, Derrick Henry would be a fantasy RB2 against a Seattle defense that got shredded by Carlos Hyde last week. In fact, according to ESPN’s Cameron Wolfe, Henry is expected to see a “significant workload” regardless of Murray’s availability.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy (wrist) took full practice reps again Friday. McCoy will be good to go for Week 3.

Colts RB Marlon Mack (shoulder, out) missed practice again Friday and is out for Week 3. Robert Turbin should see most of his snaps and touches.

Redskins RB Rob Kelley (rib, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. Kelley is on track to play against Oakland. This should be a high scoring game, so if Kelley is getting his usual workload, he’s a good bet to find the end zone.

Bears RB Jordan Howard (shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. It looks like Howard is in for Week 3, though it remains to be seen how effective he is after a tough start to the season. The Bears need to keep this one close to ensure that Howard stays involved.

Falcons RB Brian Hill (ankle) took full practice reps all week.

Colts RB Frank Gore (not injury related) returned to take full practice reps Friday after missing practice Thursday. Gore may see a few extra snaps with Marlon Mack sidelined.

Chargers RB Melvin Gordon (knee, questionable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is questionable for Week 3. Gordon was a midweek downgrade but the fact that he returned to practice on Friday indicates that he’ll be able to play in Week 3.

Jets RB Matt Forte (knee) took full practice reps all week.

Bears RB Benny Cunningham (ankle) was removed from the injury report Friday after taking full practice reps Thursday. Cunningham will make his return, but Tarik Cohen is the passing down back in Chicago at this point.

Broncos RB Jamaal Charles (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday.

Patriots RB Rex Burkhead (ribs, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. With Burkhead out, James White and Mike Gillislee should be more involved and Dion Lewis may see extra snaps as well.

Texans RB Alfred Blue (ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3.

Dolphins RB Jay Ajayi (knee, questionable) took full practice reps Friday after missing practice earlier in the week and is questionable for Week 3. Ajayi should play, per Adam Gase. The full practice indicates he’s good to go. He has a great matchup against the Jets.

Bears QB Mark Sanchez (neck) was removed from the injury report Friday after taking full practice reps Thursday.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger (not injury related) took full practice reps again Friday. No worries here.

Cardinals QB Carson Palmer (not injury related) missed practice Friday. Arizona plays on Monday night, so this is just a rest day for Palmer. He’s set up for a good game in a good matchup at home with no David Johnson to lean on.

Panthers QB Cam Newton (right shoulder, ankle, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 3. Newton will be fine to play in a fantastic matchup against a New Orleans defense that has been shredded by Sam Bradford and Tom Brady in the last two weeks.

Broncos QB Paxton Lynch (right shoulder, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3.

Colts QB Andrew Luck (right shoulder, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 3. Jacoby Brissett gets another start, which is bad news for T.Y. Hilton and Co. Only Jack Doyle seems to have any chemistry with Brissett.

Jaguars QB Chad Henne (illness, questionable) missed practice Friday and is questionable for Week 3.

Vikings QB Sam Bradford (knee, out) missed practice Friday after taking limited reps Thursday and is out for Week 3. With Bradford out, we have to downgrade the entire Minnesota offense. The Bucs defense looks like a good streaming option after a great outing against the Bears in Week 2.

Jaguars QB Blake Bortles (right wrist) took full practice reps all week. Bortles will be out there in a tough matchup against a good Baltimore defense.

Browns TE Randall Telfer (knee) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Jets TE Neal Sterling (ankle) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (rib, sternum) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. Described as “not healthy right now” by his head coach, Reed has a chest injury that he may be able to play through, presuming he can handle the pain. On Thursday, Jay Gruden said, “The pain is becoming manageable.” We’ll continue to monitor his status, but his owners may want to have a Plan B ready to go. Vernon Davis was serviceable (3.5-47-0.25) in the four games that Reed missed last year.

Bills TE Nick O'Leary (hamstring) was added to the injury report Thursday after taking limited practice reps.

Bears TE Zach Miller (not injury related) was added to the injury report Thursday after missing practice. This looks like a rest day for Miller.

Jets TE Jordan Leggett (knee) missed practice again Thursday.

Steelers TE Jesse James (ankle) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. James should be able to play against Chicago.

Saints TE Michael Hoomanawanui (illness) was added to the injury report Thursday after missing practice.

Broncos TE Jeff Heuerman (shoulder) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday.

Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski (groin) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. Gronk said the injury wasn’t serious and it looks like he’s on track to play against Houston.

Texans TE Ryan Griffin (concussion) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Cardinals TE Jermaine Gresham (ribs) took limited practice reps Thursday. Gresham is expected to play in Week 3.

Seahawks TE Jimmy Graham (ankle) did not practice Wednesday. Graham is expected to draw a questionable tag. The Seahawks play in the late round of games on Sunday.

Giants TE Evan Engram (concussion) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Engram is in the concussion protocol, but at this point he’s expected to play against the Eagles. If Odell Beckham nears full health, Engram’s role in the passing game may diminish.

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert (back) missed practice again Thursday. It looks like Eifert will miss Week 3. Tyler Kroft will likely draw the start, but C.J. Uzomah will also be involved. Uzomah was actually better last year while Eifert was out.

Raiders TE Jared Cook (shoulder) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Cook is a Sneaky Start against Washington, who yielded 95 yards to Gerald Everett in Week 2 after giving up 93 yards (on 8 catches) against Zach Ertz.

Bills TE Charles Clay (knee) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday. Clay will be fine to face Denver.

Texans TE Stephen Anderson (concussion) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday.

Bears WR Kendall Wright (shoulder) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Wright should be healthy enough to face Pittsburgh. He’s an option in deeper PPR formats.

Chargers WR Mike Williams (back) took limited practice reps Wednesday.

Bears WR Markus Wheaton (finger) was removed from the injury report Thursday after taking full practice reps Wednesday.

Broncos WR Demaryius Thomas (hamstring) took full practice reps Thursday after being limited Wednesday. The upgrade indicates that Thomas will be out there against Buffalo.

Jaguars WR Jaelen Strong (hamstring) missed practice Thursday after taking limited reps Wednesday.

Patriots WR Matt Slater (hamstring) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Bengals WR John Ross (illness) missed practice Thursday after taking limited reps Wednesday.

Colts WR Chester Rogers (hamstring) missed practice again Thursday.

Seahawks WR Paul Richardson (finger) practiced fully Wednesday.

Dolphins WR DeVante Parker (ankle) missed practice Thursday after taking limited reps Wednesday. This is a midweek downgrade so we’ll keep a close eye out for Parker’s Friday participation. He has a great matchup with the Jets.

Packers WR Jordy Nelson (quadricep) took full practice reps again Thursday. After an injury scare against the Falcons, Nelson looks like a go for Week 3. Given the full practice, we’re expecting the usual Jordy against Cincinnati.

Cardinals WR J.J. Nelson (hamstring) took limited practice reps Thursday. Nelson has 10 catches for 163 yards and 2 touchdowns on 13 targets through the first two games. He should have a nice game against a shaky Dallas secondary.

Ravens WR Chris Matthews (ankle) was added to the injury report Thursday after taking limited practice reps.

Dolphins WR Jarvis Landry (knee) returned to limited practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday practice. Landry is on track to play against the Jets. In his last two games against the Jets in New York, he has caught a total of 16 passes for 273 yards and two touchdowns.

Chargers WR Dontrelle Inman (groin) practiced fully Wednesday.

Jaguars WR Allen Hurns (shoulder) took full practice reps again Thursday. It looks like Hurns is a go for the London game. He has the best matchup of any of the Jacksonville receivers since he plays in the slot.

Patriots WR Chris Hogan (knee) took limited practice reps again Thursday. Danny Amendola seems to be over his concussion, and that will impact Hogan’s usage in the New England offense. He’s coming off of a 6-86-1 fantasy line, though his role with a healthy Amendola is still up in the air.

Steelers WR Darrius Heyward-Bey (illness) returned to full practice reps Thursday after missing Wednesday.

Texans WR Will Fuller (shoulder) took limited practice reps again Thursday.

Broncos WR Bennie Fowler (concussion) missed practice again Thursday.

Texans WR Bruce Ellington (concussion) took full practice reps again Thursday.

Patriots WR Phillip Dorsett (knee) took limited practice reps again Thursday. With Danny Amendola possibly making his return, Dorsett’s role may be scaled back in Week 3.
