Falcons WR Julio Jones sees limited snaps

Dec 26, 2016

Julio Jones didn't push his injured toe in Saturday's game versus the Panthers. The Atlanta Falcons didn't need him to, handling Carolina 33-16. The receiver was mindful of bigger games coming up on the schedule.

"I was good throughout the whole game, but I was just trying to be careful," Jones said, per ESPN's Vaughn McClure. "I was just in and out, not trying to let that flame up. I wasn't [on a limit]. It was just how I felt. I'm not going to put myself in a situation to hurt the team."

Fantasy Impact:

Jones played the fewest snaps in a game he's started this season, seeing 39 of 63 offensive plays. He still ended up leading the Falcons with 60 receiving yards on four catches, as Matt Ryan spread the ball around to 10 different targets for 277 yards and 2 TDs.

Browns QB Baker Mayfield underwent successful surgery on his torn labrum and will be out 4-6 months.

Fantasy Impact:

That timeline lines up with training camps starting, which could/could not be an issue for Mayfield if he takes the full expected amount of time to recover. Case Keenum should be kept as the Browns' backup QB.

Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling (back) did not practice Wednesday, while RB Aaron Jones (knee) was a full participant.

Related Players: Randall Cobb, Allen Lazard

Fantasy Impact:

Valdes-Scantling has been in-and-out of the lineup and the extra time has not helped his back issues. His health is important because it is unlikely that Randall Cobb plays a large chunk of this weekend's divisional game after having core muscle surgery.

Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill (heel) was a full participant Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

Hill was not himself for parts of K.C.'s Super Wild Card win, so it is good to see him already a full participant.
