Source: Brady has broken ribs

Chargers tight end Charlie Kolar is undergoing surgery to repair a broken forearm, per source. He plans to make a full return after short-term IR (four weeks).

It's a big loss for the Chargers, mostly in terms of blocking. With Njoku also on IR, the team turns back to Gadsden, who was a standout player parts of last season, and seemed to have a bright future before the team pushed him down the depth chart. Gadsden won't help in the blocking department, but for being the third TE he already has four catches for 50 yards and a TD this season. His snaps may be limited because of his blocking, but he's back in the mix as a TE option for your lineup and is likely on your waiver wire.

Steelers RB Rico Dowdle (toe) checked out relatively OK following tests. He's considered to be day-to-day.

Dowdle was carted to the locker room on Sunday. It's been a slow start for him, and he's mostly splitting time with Warren, although Warren has out-touched him the first two weeks. Dowdle has been involved in the passing game with two catches each of the first two weeks, putting him at least in the flex conversation for fantasy lineups. If Dowdle can't go, the rookie Heidenreich could be more involved with the majority of the work likely going to Warren.

Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed has returned to Green Bay.

Reed remained in a New Jersey hospital after suffering a neck injury in Sunday’s overtime win over the Jets. Head coach Matt LaFleur said that Reed is still undergoing tests on the injury and that conversations about whether he’ll play again this season will have to wait.

“It’s way too early for that right now. . . . He’s got a lot going on,” LaFleur said, via Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com, in the story. As the story also pointed out, Reed missed 10 games with injuries last season and signed a three-year contract extension this offseason.
