Lions backfield questionable for Week 6

Sources: The Patriots have agreed to terms with their standout TE Hunter Henry on a 2-year contract extension.

As Rapoport said, it makes it likely that Henry finishes his career with the Pats. Henry had one year remaining on his contract. We rank Henry 16th among out TEs but we like his value a lot when it comes to draft time, he's finished as TE9 and TE12 the last two seasons.

Luther Burden is expected to miss about a month after suffering a groin injury in practice on Saturday, according to Matt Zenitz of CBS. The Bears’ regular-season opener is a little more than a month away on September 13, which means if all goes according to plan, Burden will be on the field.

This groin injury will be a setback that keeps him off the practice field and out of the preseason, but shouldn’t keep him off the field when the season starts.

The Bears are optimistic Burden can play in Week 1 against the Panthers, which is great news, but we're also a bit away from knowing that for sure. Either way, it seems like Burden will be back early enough in the process to keep his fantasy value in tact as we head toward draft day. Last year Burden caught 47 passes as a rookie and as the story said, Bears head coach Ben Johnson recently praised Burden’s competitiveness and spoke as if he’s expecting a very big season from Burden in year two where he seems set to take on a bigger role in the offense. We agree, and rank Burden 25th among our WRs, giving him lower end WR2 value.

Lions quarterback Teddy Bridgewater informed the team Sunday he is stepping away from the team and retiring from the NFL.

This is the second time Bridgewater has decided to retire from the NFL. The 33-year old was officially placed on the reserve/retired list. He came back to the NFL in 2025 after initially retiring after the 2023 season. As of now, undrafted free agent Luke Altmyer is behind Jared Goff.
