Ravens WR Breshad Perriman expected to play final preseason game

Aug 29, 2016

Wide receiver Breshad Perriman has a chance of playing in his first game for the Baltimore Ravens.

Perriman, a 2015 first-round draft pick, will make his Ravens debut in Thursday's preseason finale in New Orleans if he is cleared by doctors. He has missed every preseason and regular-season game since being the No. 26 overall pick 16 months ago because of two knee injuries.

"If he can play, he will play," coach John Harbaugh said after Monday's practice. "I do want to see him playing before he gets in a regular-season game. That's something we would want to see him do if he can. But that will be up to the docs."

Fantasy Impact:

Perriman has not missed a day of practice since being activated off the physically-unable-to-perform list on Aug. 23. He warmed up before Saturday's preseason game before not suiting up. The Ravens are expected to start Steve Smith Sr. and Mike Wallace in the Sept. 11 opener against the Buffalo Bills, but Perriman should be either the team's No. 3 or No. 4 receiver. Kamar Aiken will also be in the mix.

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.
