Russell Wilson has chance to return in four weeks

Oct 10, 2021

Seahawks QB Russell Wilson (finger) has a chance to return in four weeks.

Fantasy Impact:

Four weeks would be earlier than the original thought from doctors that he could miss six weeks. "That's now the hope and, depending on some other factors, that's possible," according to Schefter's article. Four weeks is the best-case scenario for Wilson and the Seahawks. If that's the case, then he would only miss three games. Seattle has their bye in Week 9, so a return off the bye in Week 10 against the Packers is now possible. For now, it'll be Geno Smith against the Steelers, Saints and Jaguars. Smith went 10/17 for 131 yards with one touchdown and one interception on Thursday against the Rams. Week 6 against the Steelers will be the first game Wilson has ever missed since coming into the NFL in 2012, snapping a streak of 149 consecutive games played.

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.
