Dolphins prepping to be without WR Preston Williams (foot)

Nov 09, 2020

The right foot injury starting receiver Preston Williams suffered in the Miami Dolphins' 34-31 win over the Arizona Cardinals wasn’t as serious as it looked after the second-year player was carted off the field.

A day after the injury coach Brian Flores said Williams is considered to be day-to-day.

Fantasy Impact:

While Flores acknowledged it’s too early to determine if Williams will be able to practice this week, or healthy enough to play in this Sunday’s home game against the Los Angeles Chargers, the injury doesn’t appear to be serious enough to end the receiver’s season, the story said. Parker caught six of the seven passes thrown his way, turning them into 64 receiving yards. Hollins, who caught an 11-yard touchdown on his first and only catch of the season, Grant and Perry handled the bulk of the receiver reps the rest of the game.

Chargers to sign RB J.K. Dobbins on one-year deal

Former Ravens RB J.K. Dobbins is planning to sign with the #Chargers on a one-year deal. Electric when healthy, Dobbins — who averages 5.8 yards per carry in his career — reunites with OC Greg Roman and can hit the market again in March.

Related Players: Gus Edwards

Fantasy Impact:

Dobbins has had poor injury luck in his career, but has only managed 234 total rushes since being drafted in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft. This is a low-risk, high-reward move by the Chargers and might give them a runway to wait a little longer in the '24 Draft before they address the position.

Cowboys sign RB Royce Freeman

The Cowboys have signed running back Royce Freeman to a one-year deal. Freeman had 319 yards on 77 carries with 2 touchdowns last year for the Los Angeles Rams. He was 3rd round pick of Denver in '18.

Related Players: Rico Dowdle, Deuce Vaughn

Fantasy Impact:

Freeman hasn't rushed for 500 yards since 2018, his rookie season. This shouldn't have any impact on the team drafting at the position and/or bringing back Ezekiel Elliott.

The Eagles have paid another big-time, rising player. This time, WR DeVonta Smith gets a 3-year, $75M contract extension that includes $51M guaranteed.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, DeVante Parker, Parris Campbell

Fantasy Impact:

Great news for Jalen Hurts and the Eagles offense as a whole. Smith will continue his 1b role in which he finished the 2023 season as fantasy's WR22.
