Redskins say TE Jordan Reed on track for Week 1

Aug 27, 2018

Jay Gruden said TE Jordan Reed is on pace to be ready for the opener.

Fantasy Impact:

We all know the drill by now ... when Reed plays he's a TE1 option every week. But staying on the field has been his biggest issue. He's played 18 of a possible 32 games over the past two years and has missed 35 percent of his regular season games in his career.

49ers say they planned to rest RB Jerick McKinnon vs. Patriots

Kyle Shanahan said that the 49ers were planning to rest Jerick McKinnon all along.

Related players: Jeff Wilson, JaMycal Hasty, Tevin Coleman

Fantasy Impact:

Would have been nice to know... McKinnon didn't get work until Wilson suffered what looked like a serious injury to his ankle. The reason the 9ers gave was it was due to his heavy workload in some games earlier this season. With Wilson's status up in the air, at best, for Week 8, McKinnon should be back in the picture along with the rookie Hasty. With Coleman on the verge of coming back, he could also enter the picture to make the backfield situation even more cloudy.

Browns WR Odell Beckham Jr. tore ACL

The Browns began bracing for life without three-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. on Sunday in Cincinnati, and now they know they will experience it for the rest of 2020.

After Beckham had an MRI on his left knee Monday morning, he texted reporter Josina Anderson and revealed he suffered a season-ending torn anterior cruciate ligament early in the Browns' 37-34 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Impact:

A Browns spokesman later confirmed MRI results show Beckham has a torn ACL, which will require surgery. He will be placed on injured reserve and won't return this season, the story said. NFL reporter Adam Levitan said Higgins went out on routes on all 28 Baker Mayfield's dropbacks, so it looks like he could benefit the most with Beckham now out of the picture and is worth a pickup, especially for those hurting at WR. Landy was out on 27 of the dropbacks so he could also benefit. Peoples-Jones went out on 21 of the dropbacks and could enter the fantasy radar.

The Jaguars fear that WR Dede Westbrook tore his ACL in yesterday’s loss to the #Chargers, source said.

Related players: D.J. Chark, Laviska Shenault, Keelan Cole

Fantasy Impact:

He’ll have an MRI to confirm the injury that would knock him out for the season. Westbrook was already behind Chark, Shenault and Cole anyway and was a scratch most of the season.
