Falcons RB Devonta Freeman out of concussion protocol

Aug 29, 2017

Falcons running back Devonta Freeman returned to practice on Monday in one of the final steps he had to take before being cleared from the concussion protocol and no red flags that would have led to a longer stay were triggered once he got back on the field.

Coach Dan Quinn said Tuesday that Freeman is out of the concussion protocol and cleared for full action for the first time since getting hurt on August 13.

Fantasy Impact:

Freeman won’t play on Thursday in the preseason finale, but clearing the protocol leaves him on track to play when the Falcons begin the regular season against the Bears on September 10.

Free agent RB Darrel Williams is signing with the Arizona Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact:

Williams was asked to do a lot in his time with the Chiefs and now has a chance to be the back-up behind James Conner. Conner's injury history makes Williams an intriguing late-round pick in redraft.

The Indianapolis Colts have signed RB Ty'Son Williams.

Fantasy Impact:

Williams had a chance to be a fantasy asset in Baltimore, but never could get over the hump with the team's coaching staff. He gets a chance to be a depth piece in Indy. He is off the fantasy radar unless injuries plague the Colts running back room.
