Bills WR Khalil Shakir on pace to return by Week 1

Aug 07, 2025

Bills HC Sean McDermott said he’s being told as of now that WR Khalil Shakir should be on pace to return for the start of the season.

Shakir is dealing with a high ankle sprain.

Fantasy Impact:

It would be fantastic news if Shakir were able to suit up to kick off the season, as we're still expecting him to pace the team in targets. If he has a fully healthy season, there are signs pointing to a potential true breakout, making him an intriguing WR3 at a WR4 price. That all depends on volume though, so any missed time makes him a less valuable pick due to a lack of "blow-up" games.

49ers RB Jordan James breaks finger, out for "couple weeks"

49ers rookie RB Jordan James broke his finger and is getting surgery. Will be out "a couple weeks", Shanahan said

Fantasy Impact:

Guerendo is already sidelined with a shoulder injury so things are pretty thin in the RB room right now. If CMC wasn't already slated for a giant workload, that looks just about locked in at this point. He's an easy first-round click.

Cowboys don't believe TE Jake Ferguson's injury "is significant"

Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones said Micah Parsons remains with the team even though he wasn’t at today’s practice.

More evaluation needed on RB Jaydon Blue and TE Jake Ferguson but they don’t think either injury is significant

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

Sounds like a rough day at practice for the Cowboys, but we shouldn't bump Ferguson down the ranks until we hear it's a more serious injury than it looks. As a clear option to be the No. 3 pass-catcher in a pass-heavy offense, he should be considered as a fantasy asset in the fringe TE1/2 range.

Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue spends time in injury tent, returns to practice in shorts and shirt

Jaydon Blue spent time in the injury tent and just walked off the field on his own power.

Looks like he might be done for today.

Related Players: Javonte Williams, Miles Sanders

Fantasy Impact:

Sounds like something minor, but all fantasy eyes will be on him as we continue to try to make sense out of this backfield. Williams seems like the frontrunner to start the season as RB1, but with his and Sanders' inefficiency in recent years, the rookie is a very interesting target late in drafts.
