Bears RB Benny Cunningham carted off with knee injury

Sep 10, 2017

Benny Cunningham (knee) was carted to the locker room during Sunday's game against the Falcons, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Related players: Jordan Howard, Tarik Cohen

Fantasy Impact:

Cunningham was carted off eventually. It's significant because the team released Jeremy Lankford leaving Cunningham as a backup to Howard. Looks like Cohen could step into that role.

No update from Jerry Jones this morning on Cowboys WR Amari Cooper’s bruised ribs. “I don’t know today. I’m hopeful those ribs can get comfortable enough to play (Monday night).”

Related players: CeeDee Lamb

Fantasy Impact:

As we said Monday, owners will have to monitor the status of Cooper this week. We also reported Monday Cooper could end up being limited even if he plays in Week 3, which, to make matters worse is a Monday night game. Lamb could be in store for a big workload if Cooper has to miss any time as Michael Gallup is on IR. Cooper could end up being a gametime call.

Texans QB Tyrod Taylor (hamstring) could miss four weeks

Quarterback Tyrod Taylor’s hamstring injury could keep him out for four weeks.

Taylor was injured in the second quarter of the Texans’ 31-21 loss at Cleveland, and he was replaced by rookie Davis Mills, who’ll start Thursday night’s game against Carolina at NRG Stadium.

Related players: Davis Mills, Jeff Driskel

Fantasy Impact:

Depending on how quickly Taylor’s hamstring responds to treatment, sources familiar with his situation haven’t ruled out an earlier return, but the Texans have always been extra cautious with hamstring and groin injuries and aren’t expected to rush him back, the story went on to say. Mills will get the start and the team is expected to back him up with Driskel on a short week, Thursday night game. If he's still on the wire, Mills is worth adding in deeper leagues or superflex leagues but he's obviously not a confident start for fantasy owners.

Mike McCarthy says Amari Cooper has bruised ribs and they’ll know more Wednesday.

Related players: CeeDee Lamb

Fantasy Impact:

Owners will have to monitor the status of Cooper this week. He could very well end up being limited even if he plays in Week 3, which, to make matters worse is a Monday night game against the Eagles. Lamb could be in store for a big workload if Cooper has to miss any time as Michael Gallup is on IR.
