Panthers TE Greg Olsen (back) plans to play Thursday

Sep 10, 2019

Panthers TE Greg Olsen (back) says he plans to play Week 2.

Related players: Ian Thomas

Fantasy Impact:

Olsen told Reed his back got "jacked up" in the game against the Rams. Olsen added the short week, Thursday night game against the Bucs is "not idea" for his injury. Looks like Olsen will play but perhaps Thomas gets a few more snaps than usual.

Packers trade with Texans for WR Randall Cobb

A welcome-back gift for Aaron Rodgers: the Texans are trading former Packers’ WR Randall Cobb back to Green Bay, per Randall Cobb. Cobb has been a longtime favorite of Rodgers.

Fantasy Impact:

Randall Cobb spent his first eight seasons in Green Bay as Aaron Rodgers' main slot weapon. The trade is great news for Rodgers and Cobb, but not so great for rookie Amari Rodgers, who was assumed to be taking on the slot role in Green Bay in 2021. Consider Cobb a WR3/4.

Curtis Samuel placed on active/PUP list

Amongst those players placed on the PUP list today:
* Patriots OT Trent Brown and OLB Kyle Van Noy
* Washington WR Curtis Samuel
* Packers LT David Bakhtiari
* Chiefs OL Kyle Long

Fantasy Impact:

There's still plenty of time for Curtis Samuel to heal from his groin twinge, but it would be helpful for him to get in as many reps as he can with his new offense. Samuel is currently ranked as 4for4's WR30 in half-PPR formats and can come off the list at any time.

Logan Thomas signs three-year extension with Washington

The Washington Football Team has agreed to terms on a three-year extension for TE Logan Thomas, sources say. After a breakout year in 2020 with 72 catches, the former QB who made a successful position switch gets paid.

Fantasy Impact:

Logan Thomas had a breakout year in 2020, ending as TE9 in half-PPR points per game. He may see less work this season with Ryan Fitzpatrick under center but is still in the starting TE conversations as 4for4's 12th ranked at the position.
