DeSean Jackson (ankle) out 6-8 weeks

Oct 24, 2020

Eagles WR DeSean Jackson suffered a non-displaced fracture in his ankle and is expected to miss 6-8 weeks.

Fantasy Impact:

It’s a similar injury to the one suffered by TE Dallas Goedert, who has already missed a few weeks and is not expected back until after the Eagles bye in Week 9. This timeframe puts Jackson on track to return somewhere between Weeks 13 and 15, right at the start of the fantasy playoffs. But at this point, it will certainly be tough to trust DJax during that run, especially with the Eagles having Travis Fulgham playing well and other receivers, including Jalen Raegor, should also be back by then. Jackson will be entering the final year of his contract with the Eagles in 2021 (provided the team decides to keep him).

Raiders RB Alexander Mattison set to return Week 15, Sincere McCormick still starting

Levi Edwards

Antonio Pierce stated that Sincere McCormick will remain the team’s starting running back even with Alexander Mattison nearing a return this week.

“He deserves it. … He has run his tail off.”

Related Players: Ameer Abdullah

Fantasy Impact:

At 2-11, the Raiders would be silly to not see what they have in McCormick, with 31-year-old Abdullah and Mattison, who is on a one-year contract, only there to give the former UDFA a breather. Consider McCormick a volume-based RB3.

Giants QB Drew Lock in walking boot, Tommy DeVito set to start Week 15

Giants HC Brian Daboll told reporters that QB Drew Lock is in a walking boot due to a heel injury and Tommy DeVito now is expected to start Sunday vs. the Ravens.

Fantasy Impact:

The Ravens path to an overall D/ST1 finish on the week becomes a little clearer. DeVito can safely be kept on benches in SuperFlex leagues on a week with zero byes.

Bills WR Keon Coleman, TE Dalton Kincaid return to practice ahead of Week 15

Good news on the way for Buffalo: Bills WR Keon Coleman (wrist) and TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) are expected to practice fully today. A positive step forward in advance of the showdown with the Lions.

Fantasy Impact:

It's probably still best to start other options over Kincaid, as he takes on a Lions defense that ranks 4th in TE aFPA, but there could be a ton of points here, so if you're in a bind he makes sense as a top-15ish option.

As for Coleman, he's more in the boom/bust WR4 range as Shakir should continue standing atop the target share.
