Source confirms torn right thumb ligament for Jacoby Brissett. Suffered injury in 2nd half Thursday. Faces likely surgery for stabilization.

Fantasy Impact:

There's no telling who will start for the Patriots at QB next week. At 3-0, they can probably afford to forfeit the game and wait for Tom Brady's return in Week 5.

Jets RB Tevin Coleman (non-COVID illness) will not play Week 3 at Denver.

Fantasy Impact:

This means more carries for Ty Johnson and Michael Carter. The Jets will more than likely play from behind, making Carter the more likely back to produce in fantasy because of his role in the passing game.

Trey Sermon in, Elijah Mitchell doubtful for Week 3

49ers RB Elijah Mitchell (shoulder) is doubtful for Week 3, while RB Trey Sermon is out of concussion protocol according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic.

Fantasy Impact:

Other reports have JaMycal Hasty out, so Sermon appears to be the lead back Sunday night against the Packers. Look for Trenton Cannon to be the backup to Sermon.
