Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott eligible to play Week 7

Oct 17, 2017

Ezekiel Elliott is back off suspension.

A U.S. District judge in the Southern District of New York has granted Elliott his temporary restraining order against his six game suspension. Elliott is eligible to play against the 49ers this weekend.

Related players: Darren McFadden, Alfred Morris

Fantasy Impact:

Ian Rapoport's tweet within the story said the suspension "is stayed for 14 days or until further proceedings" so it looks like Elliott can play Week 8 as well. Of course, Elliott's long-term status is still very much up in the air. Basically, this ruling kicks the can down the road two weeks. Owners who picked up Alfred Morris or Darren McFadden should sit tight, if possible.

Jets RB Tevin Coleman (non-COVID illness) will not play Week 3 at Denver.

Fantasy Impact:

This means more carries for Ty Johnson and Michael Carter. The Jets will more than likely play from behind, making Carter the more likely back to produce in fantasy because of his role in the passing game.

49ers RB Elijah Mitchell (shoulder) is doubtful for Week 3, while RB Trey Sermon is out of concussion protocol according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic.

Fantasy Impact:

Other reports have JaMycal Hasty out, so Sermon appears to be the lead back Sunday night against the Packers. Look for Trenton Cannon to be the backup to Sermon.
