Chiefs QB Alex Smith ruled out for Week 9

Nov 02, 2016

Chiefs HC Andy Reid says Alex Smith will not play Sunday, even if Nick Foles gets hurt. Tyler will be the No. 2 guy.

Fantasy Impact:

Foles will get the start and is a decent streaming option even though the Jaguars are better than advertised against the pass.

Vikings running back Dalvin Cook will be on the field "full-go" in pads for Monday's practice regardless of a new contract, according to Ben Goessling of the Star Tribune. Cook added it was never a consideration not to come to training camp. "That was never coming from me," said Cook. "I love being around the guys. Football is like a stress reliever for me. "

Fantasy Impact:

Hope you got your Cook discount in drafts because he will slot as a mid-1st round pick in fantasy drafts as a workhorse back. The talk about a holdout appear to have been exaggerated.

Jets head coach Adam Gase says Mims suffered his hamstring injury a couple days running routes on air. "We're just going to have to see how long it takes."

Fantasy Impact:

Bad news for the rookie as he tries to establish a role on a Jets team needing receiver help. The longer Mims is out, the worst it is for his fantasy football value and upside.

The first series of offensive drills was centered around the run game and Clyde Edwards-Helaire, according to Adam Teicher of ESPN NFL Nation.

Fantasy Impact:

This is not a surprising development, but it is visual confirmation that CEH will have a significant role in the Chiefs offense in 2020. Expect to see CEH drafted early in drafts.
