Cowboys not ready to make calls until after practice on status of injured guys like Tyler Guyton, Tyler Smith, KaVontae Turpin. "We've got to figure out a number of guys," Brian Schottenheimer said. CeeDee Lamb, Tyler Booker will miss second straight game.

It should be the Pickens/Ferguson show once again, as they both project as top-5, volume-based plays at their respective positions. There is at least some hope for Lamb returning in Week 6, so managers can breathe a sigh of relief.

49ers are listing WRs Jauan Jennings (shoulder, ankle) and Ricky Pearsall (knee) as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Jaguars.

If Jennings misses, Pearsall should be considered a high-end WR2, and Jennings would be in a similar situation if the roles are reversed. With Brock Purdy back, each have great upside paired with a pretty good floor.

No practice today for either WR Ricky Pearsall (knee) nor WR Jauan Jennings (ankle, shoulder).

The second straight season of brutal injury luck in San Francisco rolls right along. Brock Purdy was at least present at practice today, though it was in a limited fashion. If Jennings misses, Pearsall should be considered a high-end WR2, and Jennings would be in a similar situation if the roles are reversed. We'll keep an eye on things as the week continues.

Pro Bowl wide receiver CeeDee Lamb could miss 3-4 weeks with a high left ankle sprain suffered in Sunday’s loss to the Chicago Bears, according to a source.

Earlier today we reported Lamb said he'd be able to play in Week 4 but we had our doubts about that considering it's a high ankle sprain. Three-four weeks seems like a more realistic outcome for the Cowboys WR1. It's worth keeping an eye on, but his chances of playing in Week 4 don't seem very good. The one bit of good news is reports say the team doesn't plan to put him on IR, meaning they hope he's back within four weeks.

Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones said on that CeeDee Lamb has a high ankle sprain.

The post went on to say Lamb said after the game yesterday that he’d be able to play next Sunday, but Jones made it sound like they’re gonna wait and see how the week goes before determining that. We all know by now we can't trust a player when it comes to his playing status. Lamb's ankle injury didn't look good, especially if you happened to see the still images on social media. But it's at least some good news that Lambs thinks he can play. However, owners should probably prepare to be without him at least for Week 4. The Cowboys play the Sunday night game at home against the Packers in Week 4.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told reporters that WR CeeDee Lamb’s ankle injury is “not as serious as it could have been.”

A sigh of relief for the Cowboys. Lamb left the game after his leg and ankle were rolled up on a rushing attempt. He would later return to the game before exiting again. Jones did also add “Let’s just keep our fingers crossed.” We’ll see if Lamb does have to miss time, adding insult to injury after the Cowboys gave the Bears their first win of the season. Lamb was held without a catch in the loss.

The Cowboys ruled out WR CeeDee Lamb with an ankle injury.

Lamb had left the game earlier in the day and come back before leaving again. Lamb was initially hurt on a rushing attempt early in the game and had his leg rolled up on. Lamb did not record a catch.

With Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy reportedly out up to four weeks due to a sprained ankle, Carson Wentz becomes the next man up.

At some point over the next month, will undrafted rookie Max Brosmer become the next man in?

Brosmer, the only one of three backups throughout the offseason program and training camp to make it to the 53-man roster (Sam Howell and Brett Rypien are gone), played at the University of Minnesota last season.

The story added the Vikings love Brosmer, but he's currently not ready to take over the position. However, the Vikings could turn to him at some point if Wentz can't take advantage of his chances. The story also mentioned the team could make a move for another QB as well. A familiar name in Kirk Cousins was mentioned specifically in the story. This whole situation could be a very interesting one, especially if Wentz happens to struggle early.

One aspect of Thursday's game that's being overlooked, imo, is how George Pickens lackadaisical route running really hurt the Cowboys in some key moments (little attempt to pick Cooper DeJean on the 4th down throw to CeeDee Lamb).

Of course, this is just one writer's opinion but something he noticed. He went on to point out when Pickens' isn't the primary or secondary option, "his route running effort went into the dumpster." Owning said it hurt the Cowboys because Pickens was "not stressing the defense to create openings for others in those situations." It's hard to tell if this could have a direct affect on fantasy. In the end, the team could take Pickens off the field for plays where he may not be involved, and that's never a good thing.

Kendrick Bourne is returning home to the San Francisco 49ers on a 1 year deal with a max value of $5 million dollars.

Pearsall had a 4-108-0 line but after that it was Christian McCaffrey catching nine passes. Jennings and Kittle both left the game with injuries, leaving their status for Week 2 in doubt. The Niners need the help at WR but it remains to be seen of Bourne is the answer. Bourne does have a history in San Francisco with Kyle Shanahan so he's a name to keep an eye on.
