Falcons WR Darnell Mooney day-to-day but looks "pretty good"

Sep 04, 2025

Falcons OC Zac Robinson on Darnell Mooney: "Day to day, but he looks good out there. He’s running really well, catching the ball. We’ll keep monitoring the situation, but he has looked pretty good."

Related Players: Drake London, Ray-Ray McCloud, Khadarel Hodge

Fantasy Impact:

Good sign for Mooney, but not good enough that we should be shoving him in lineups quite yet. When we've received the all-clear, he will be an option as a fantasy WR3/4 after putting up good numbers last year, with a lack of additions to the WR room ahead of 2025.

49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk is "not close" to returning

49ers GM John Lynch told @KNBR that WR Brandon Aiyuk is “not close” to returning from the knee injury he suffered almost a year ago. There was more damage than just to the ACL, and more recovery time is required.

Related Players: Ricky Pearsall, Jauan Jennings

Fantasy Impact:

This aligns well with Jeff Mueller's assessment that Aiyuk's most likely return would be in Week 6, but the wording suggests a potential that it may last even longer. He remains a good stash — particularly if you have an IR spot — but it still looks like we're weeks away from it changing the remaining 49ers' pass-catchers' target share.

Jets QB Justin Fields to practice Thursday, but still in concussion protocol

Justin Fields will practice today, but he's still in concussion protocol.

Related Players: Tyrod Taylor

Fantasy Impact:

HC Aaron Glenn later reiterated that Fields would start if cleared before Monday, so it seems like there's a good chance he suits up for Week 4. If he's cleared before we have to set lineups on Sunday morning, we can inch him up to a low-end QB1 in what should be a pretty nice matchup.

Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) on track to play Week 4

Chiefs listed WR Xavier Worthy as a full participant in today’s practice, putting him on track to play Sunday against Baltimore.

Fantasy Impact:

Since his massive 16-target performance after Worthy went down in Week 1, Brown has been completely forgettable in his two chances to earn more work since. If Worthy is looking close to 100% this early in the week, we should definitely consider him further up our rankings than if he weren't a full participant until Friday. Push him up into the WR2/3 range if he is completely cleared ahead of the weekend.
