Fantasy Impact:

Those looking to backup Fields on their fantasy roster will need to keep an eye on this situation. It's good news he should be ready to go for Week 1, but just in case, Cook or Martinez would likely serve as the team's QB2 - unless the Jets make another move.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy will continue to practice this week and could play Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday. Purdy’s status will remain up in the air as the team evaluates him in practice starting Wednesday.

“We’ll see on Wednesday how much he is able to do,” Shanahan said.

Fantasy Impact:

Jones, meanwhile, is day-to-day with a knee injury that bugged him but did not keep him out of Sunday’s win over the Arizona Cardinals, the story went on to say. Purdy practiced in a limited capacity last week, and both Purdy and Shanahan were pleased with his progress. The team left the door open for Purdy to serve as the backup against the Cardinals, but he was inactive, the story said.

Chargers running back Najee Harris will not be available for the rest of the 2025 season.

Via multiple reporters, Los Angeles head coach Jim Harbaugh told reporters in his Monday news conference that tests confirmed Harris suffered a torn Achilles during Sunday’s win over Denver.

Related players: Omarion Hampton, Hassan Haskins

Fantasy Impact:

With Harris out, Hampton is expected to take the bulk of the carries for the Chargers going forward. He’s rushed for 142 yards and a touchdown and caught nine passes for 73 yards, the story said. While Hampton should get a bulk of the work, the Chargers always seem to be quick to say other backs will work in as well. Haskins is up next on the depth chart and the Bolts could be another team to maker a move for a RB sooner than later.
