Fox thinks Smith will be ready for season opener

The reason why Rashee Rice didn't practice today -- which was mostly held indoors & without fans -- is because he has a groin injury, per the team.

This seems to be a new injury and adds to Worthy (concussion protocol) and Brown (ankle) receiving their own bruises in practices over the last week or so. There are no further updates to Rice's injury at the time, so we won't speculate further until we receive more information.

Despite RJ Harvey being listed as the Broncos' last RB on their first unofficial depth chart, it's pretty clear he's their No. 2 RB behind J.K. Dobbins.

What's notable about the RB depth chart is Jaleel McLaughlin is ahead of Audric Estime.

The depth chart Stevens is referencing has Harvey listed behind Tyler Badie and Blake Watson, which would be hilarious. We still have Harvey far ahead of Dobbins in our rankings, with eyes toward the back-half of the season.

Sources: Rams QB Matthew Stafford is dealing with an aggravated disc and has received an epidural to help him deal with it.

Los Angeles has called him week-to-week, being cautious, but with plans for him to be ready for Week 1.

Even if Stafford is truly 100% by Week 1, he can still be ignored in typical redraft leagues with the possibility open to streaming him later in the season. The team does have a perfectly capable backup in Garoppolo, so we could see him snag a start or two before Stafford's shoulder is all the way back to normal.
