Oak TE Zach Miller sustained a concussion when he was hit near the end of the game by Rocky McIntosh. It was Miller’s second concussion of the season, the first coming Oct. 4 against Houston.

Given the league’s new guidelines on concussions and pressure to play it safe, Miller is no lock to play.

Raiders TE Jason Witten to be a veteran presence

yesterday · 9:34 PM EDT

Jason Witten really emphasized that the "fit" with the Raiders is what really drew him to the organization. When asked specifically what his role with the club is going to be, he pointed to being a veteran presence in the tight end room and eventually evolving into some solid on-field production.

Related players: Darren Waller

Fantasy Impact: 

That would suggest that Witten is embracing the idea of taking a backseat to Waller, who started all 16 games for the Raiders last season and totaled 1,145 yards receiving, and being a mentor to the 27-year-old. While this is something we probably all figured, it's possible Witten becomes another red zone target and could steal some TDs away from Waller, as we project Waller with a 76-973-2.9 line this season. In the end, Waller is the obvious guy to own but it looks like he could take a step back.

Giants TE Evan Engram (foot) 'feels great'

The Giants did not put Evan Engram on the physically unable to perform list, a good sign he is fully or nearly fully recovered. He is taking part in the limited work allowed on the field and on Wednesday is expected to join his teammates for Phase 2 activities, which allow players to wear helmets and “approved protective shirts’’ for practice.

Fantasy Impact: 

Engram said he feels great but wouldn't go into detail as far as what he'll be able to do in practice. Engram just needs to stay on the field and he'll be among the TE1 options most, if not every week. He played a career-low eight games last year and missed 14 of 48 games in three years with the Giants.

Patriots Beat: Too early to know if RB Sony Michel will be ready

It’s still too early to know if Sony Michel (foot surgery) will be ready for the regular season.

Related players: Lamar Miller, Damien Harris, James White

Fantasy Impact: 

Thus the reason for the signing of Miller. The Pats were also hurt by the opt-out of Brandon Bolden so they were a little short at the position. As always, the Patriots RB situation will be one to watch for fantasy owners. White is the back to own in PPR leagues.
