Giants TE Evan Engram (foot) not practicing Monday

Nov 18, 2019

Evan Engram (foot) and Nate Solder (personal reason) absent from today’s practice.

Related players: Kaden Smith, Rhett Ellison

Fantasy Impact:

It's probably not a good sign for Engram's status this week. Ellison is dealing with a concussion, which means Smith could get the start in Week 12.

Raiders quickly cut RB Jeremy Hill

The Raiders cut RB Jeremy Hill on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

Hill only lasted a couple of days before getting cut, meaning he was likely only signed as an insurance policy for the running back room in this unique offseason. Hill could turn up as a veteran option somewhere else given the uncertainty surrounding this season, but he is unlikely to pay fantasy dividends as he has not played in the NFL since 2018 and is coming off a torn ACL.

Bruce Arians: RB Ronald Jones will 'carry the load' for Bucs

Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Buccaneers Head Coach Bruce Arians announced that RB Ronald Jones will be the "main guy" in the Tampa Bay backfield this season and will "carry the load" while the other backs find their role.

Fantasy Impact:

The Buccaneers signing of LeSean McCoy last week had fantasy drafters worried about Jones' fantasy prospects but Arians cleared up any uncertainty on Wednesday when he explicitly annointed Jones as Tampa's lead back, at least for early-down rushing work. Rookie RB Ke'Shawn Vaughn sparked intrigue in the fantasy community when he landed in Tampa, but he remains on the reserve/COVID list and is clearly behind Jones on the depth chart. It still seems unlikely that Jones gets a true workhorse role this season, but Arians' latest comments should instill confidence regarding his rushing workload and give his ADP a slight bump.

Dolphins WR Albert Wilson announced that he is opting out of the 2020 season.

Fantasy Impact:

Wilson joins teammate Allen Hurns in opting out. Wilson has largely disappointed in Miami during his two seasons there, but he was poised to benefit from Hurns' absence and the Dolphins' receiver depth chart is now reduced to Jakeem Grant, Isaiah Ford, Mack Hollins and Gary Jennings behind starters DeVante Parker and Preston Williams. Wilson's opt out could mean a small uptick in targets for Parker and Wilson and further involvement in the passing game for RB Matt Breida.
