Joe Burrow limps, gets assistance to locker room

Sep 14, 2025

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow was helped to the locker room after having his leg rolled up in the second quarter against the Jaguars.

Fantasy Impact:

The Bengals somehow don’t have a cart, so staff members had to help Burrow to the locker room. No word yet on his status, but at least, for the time being, Jake Browning is in at quarterback. Burrow had 76 yards and a touchdown on 7/13 passing.

Falcons rule out Younghoe Koo, promote Parker Romo for Week 2

The Falcons ruled out kicker Younghoe Koo for Sunday night’s game against the Vikings and elevated Parker Romo from the practice squad.

Fantasy Impact:

The Falcons listed the reason for Koo as non-injury related. One can speculate that has to do with Koo’s miss at the end of the game in Week 1 against the Buccaneers that would have tied the game. Romo will now kick against the team he played four games for in 2024, going 11/12 with a long of 55.

Brock Bowers returns to practice Saturday

Raiders tight end Brock Bowers returned to practice Saturday after missing Thursday and Friday.

Fantasy Impact:

Bowers was recovering from the knee injury he suffered in the season-opening win over the Patriots. Perhaps the Raiders were just resting him. He told the media after the game his knee was fine. With Bowers practicing Saturday, his chances now bode pretty well that he’ll be available for Vegas (and his fantasy owners) Monday night against the Chargers. Bowers is TE5 entering Sunday with Tucker Kraft having already played.

Patriots trade Ja’Lynn Polk to Saints, teams swap future picks

The Patriots traded wide receiver Ja’Lynn Polk to the New Orleans Saints.

Fantasy Impact:

The teams will also swap future draft picks. The Patriots get a 6th in 2027, the Saints get a 7th in 2028. This is a rare occurrence where a player who is on injured reserve is traded. The Saints clearly like Polk enough to stash him for the season and take on over $2 million in guaranteed money over the remaining two years of Polk’s contract in 2026 and 2027.

The Patriots drafted two wide receivers in 2024. Neither are with the team after just one season. In addition to Polk, 4th-round pick Javon Baker is now with the Eagles’ practice squad.
