Rams RB Darrell Henderson promoted from practice squad

Oct 20, 2023

Rams’ RB Darrell Henderson Jr. will be promoted off the practice squad for Sunday’s game vs. the Steelers. “Darrell came back in; he's a guy that's going to be up and active this week,” said Rams’ HC Sean McVay. “He's done a great job of being able to quickly re-acclimate himself back to a lot of the things that we've done; he's taking good care of himself in the meantime.”

Related Players: Zach Evans, Royce Freeman, Myles Gaskin

Fantasy Impact:

This sounds like pretty awful news for those of us who rushed to the waiver wire to snatch up Zach Evans this week. McVay has been very giving to his RB1 in recent memory, but we have quite a logjam at the position now, particularly after this Henderson promotion. It's going to be difficult to start any of these options in Week 7.

Raiders RB Alexander Mattison set to return Week 15, Sincere McCormick still starting

Antonio Pierce stated that Sincere McCormick will remain the team’s starting running back even with Alexander Mattison nearing a return this week.

“He deserves it. … He has run his tail off.”

Related Players: Ameer Abdullah

Fantasy Impact:

At 2-11, the Raiders would be silly to not see what they have in McCormick, with 31-year-old Abdullah and Mattison, who is on a one-year contract, only there to give the former UDFA a breather. Consider McCormick a volume-based RB3.

Giants QB Drew Lock in walking boot, Tommy DeVito set to start Week 15

Giants HC Brian Daboll told reporters that QB Drew Lock is in a walking boot due to a heel injury and Tommy DeVito now is expected to start Sunday vs. the Ravens.

Fantasy Impact:

The Ravens path to an overall D/ST1 finish on the week becomes a little clearer. DeVito can safely be kept on benches in SuperFlex leagues on a week with zero byes.

Bills WR Keon Coleman, TE Dalton Kincaid return to practice ahead of Week 15

Good news on the way for Buffalo: Bills WR Keon Coleman (wrist) and TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) are expected to practice fully today. A positive step forward in advance of the showdown with the Lions.

Fantasy Impact:

It's probably still best to start other options over Kincaid, as he takes on a Lions defense that ranks 4th in TE aFPA, but there could be a ton of points here, so if you're in a bind he makes sense as a top-15ish option.

As for Coleman, he's more in the boom/bust WR4 range as Shakir should continue standing atop the target share.
