Chiefs WR Sammy Watkins (foot) OK after last week's game

Jan 14, 2019

Reid says that he's talked to Sammy Watkins since Saturday's game and said his foot feels fine. He's sore from playing, but nothing to be concerned about.

Fantasy Impact:

Watkins was targeted eight times in the game and caught six balls for 62 yards. This week the Chiefs get the Patriots at home in the AFC title game. One thing to note is extremely cold temperatures are predicted for this contest in KC.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins not suited up for today's practice.

Fantasy Impact:

As we reported last week, Higgins did practice Friday after DNPs Wednesday and Thursday. Obviously it turned out he never played in Week 3 but we'll continue to monitor. Any sign of Higgins on Wednesday and/or Thursday could be a good sign.

HC Mike Tomlin said he also anticipates that JuJu Smith-Schuster, who left Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals with a rib injury, will practice at some point this week, though the wide receiver may be limited Wednesday.

Linebacker Alex Highsmith (groin) and wide receiver Diontae Johnson (knee) will also practice after both were inactive for the Bengals game, Tomlin said.

Fantasy Impact:

It's certainly great news after Johnson missed Week 3 after getting hurt on the final play of Week 2. Tomlin said, "We'll let the quantity and quality of that practice be our guide in terms of determining their availability." We'll continue to monitor both players ahead of Week 4.

Giants 'focused' on getting ball to WR Kadarius Toney

“It’s something we’re focused on right now,” HC Joe Judge said. “We’ve got to get [Kadarius Toney] the ball and we definitely want to. I think we saw yesterday a couple of glimpses of just him with the ball in his hands. He’s got the ability to make some guys miss in space, he runs hard and he competes. He comes off the ball with a different level of speed than a lot of guys, so in terms of trying to get him the ball, that’s definitely a focus for us going forward."

Related players: Sterling Shepard, Darius Slayton

Fantasy Impact:

Toney got his chance to play in Week 3 with injuries to Shepard and Slayton, but only caught two balls for 16 yards. With Shepard and Slayton dealing with hamstring issues and their status in doubt, Toney has a full week of practice to try and get ready for possible significant playing time in Week 4. The team may not have much choice but to try and get him touches.
