Packers WR Jayden Reed misses Wednesday practice

Sep 03, 2025

C Elgton Jenkins back at practice for #Packers after missing Monday. LaFleur said he’d be limited.
CB Nate Hobbs went thru stretch but did not have pads on for practice.
WR Jayden Reed also not practicing.

Related Players: Matthew Golden, Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, Tucker Kraft

Fantasy Impact:

It's not looking promising for Reed in Week 1, which is a disappointment, as he has a shot to lead this team in targets. As it stands, Golden should be the best bet for fantasy production on his progressional debut. Consider him a WR3 and consider fading Reed this week, even if he does suit up.

Tomlin: RB Jaylen Warren 'certainly our featured runner'

Christopher Carter on X

Mike Tomlin on Jaylen Warren:

"His progress has been very evident and he's to be congratulated ... Certainly he'll be our featured runner. Certainly you'll see [Kaleb Johnson/Kenneth Gainwell], but at what time and at what degree [will depend week-to-week]."

Fantasy Impact:

Warren just signed an extension with the Steelers for two years and now looks to be the Steelers RB1. Warren isn't the biggest back so there will be questions about his size and handling a full workload, but it's good news for his owners who snagged him later in drafts. Johnson should be able to earn some early down work at some point, but it sounds like that will vary. It's just another RB situation that will need to work itself out before fantasy owners feel comfortable.

Panthers list Hunter Renfrow as starting WR

Hunter Renfrow is listed as one of the starting wide receivers for the Panthers.

Fantasy Impact:

Renfrow was cut from the team and then brought back this weekend after Coker moved to IR. It's quite a fall and rise situation for Renfrow, who could find himself as a fantasy producer, with the upside being Adam Thielen-like from last season.

Chargers RB Najee Harris (eye) practices fully Tuesday

Pro Football Talk

yesterday · 7:09 PM EDT

Chargers running back Najee Harris appears poised to play on Friday against the Chiefs.

Harris was listed as a full participant in today’s Chargers practice report as he continues to recover from the Fourth of July eye injury that has held him back for nearly two months.

Coach Jim Harbaugh said Harris has been cleared to play by the Chargers’ medical staff, and Harris himself insisted that the injury is superficial and did not affect his vision.

Related players: Omarion Hampton, Hassan Haskins

Fantasy Impact:

Harris looks likely to play Friday night against the Chiefs, which will put a damper on Hampton's Week 1 fantasy value. Both Harris and Hampton are likely to get their share of work in this game, but it remains to be seen how that workload is split up. Both should be considered flex options at this point.
