The New Orleans Saints released veteran running back Cam Akers, the Saints announced Monday.

This news is really about who is still remaining to possibly claim the RB2 spot behind Kamara. Miller and veteran Edwards-Helaire still remain as does the rookie Neal, who has been dealing with a hamstring injury this summer. Miller is just 23-years-old while CEH is 26, and it's looking like it could be one of the two with Neal likely behind. The RB2 will also steal some carries as well, so this is a situation to monitor if you own, or plan to own, Kamara on your fantasy roster.

QB Matthew Stafford (back) is taking 11 on 11 reps again today.

The daily Stafford watch continues with his owners holding their breath he's at least able to start Week 1. It's obviously good news - for the Rams, his fantasy owners and those owning fantasy stock in anyone on the Rams offense - any day we get this kind of alert.

The Commanders and Terry McLaurin have agreed to a 3-year contract extension, source confirms.

The deal is said to be a 3-year extension worth over $96M, according to other sources. Daniels will get his top target back before Week 1 and pushes the rest of the team's WRs down the depth chart, including Samuel who now looks to be the WR2. McLaurin finally delivered a true breakout season - 82 catches, 1,096 yards, and 13 touchdowns - finishing as the WR6 last season.
