Good news for the #Bears: Veteran WR Keenan Allen, who has missed the last couple games with a heel injury, is back at practice today on a limited basis. He's tracking to return this week if all goes well.

Related Players: D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze, DeAndre Carter

Allen came in and led them team in target share in Week 1, but Caleb Williams had a rough day at the office in his NFL premiere. Allen should regain that role as a low-aDOT target hog who is particularly valuable in PPR leagues as a WR3 with the upside for more.

Sources: Steelers RB Najee Harris is expected to be fine and is likely to be ready for Sunday’s game vs the Colts.

Reports said Harris was seen in the locker room with a sling on his right arm on Monday. However, there doesn't seem to be any concern. We reported Monday that Warren was getting an MRI on his knee, however there has been no word about the results. If Warren can't go, look for Patterson to be more involved.

There hasn't been word yet about how significant the injuries to Harris and Warren are, but at this point it's not great news. Patterson likely wouldn't carry a workload which leaves Shampkin and Ward, who are both on the team's practice squad. This could be a situation to watch closely as we go through the week. The Steelers play at the Colts in an early Sunday game in Week 4.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert, who aggravated his high-ankle sprain against the Steelers and exited the game, had X-Rays that were negative after the game, source said.

Herbert will continue to be monitored this week but his status is at least up in the air heading into Week 4, a game with the Chiefs. Herbert was seen with a boot after the game, and didn't return after leaving in the third quarter, but it's possible the Chargers were just being cautious with their start QB. We'll know more as the week goes on. Heinicke would get the start if Herbert can't go.

Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert appeared to have re-aggravated his ankle injury during Sunday’s game against the Steelers.

Taylor Heinicke is currently in the game for the Chargers. Herbert just suffered his high-ankle injury last week but was able to practice, though he was heavily taped up while doing so. Herbert was 12//8 for 125 yards and a touchdown before leaving.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert will test his ankle before Sunday's game against the Steelers and there is optimism he will be able to go.

Herbert is listed as questionable after suffering a high-ankle sprain in Week 2 against the Panthers. He did practice Friday but his ankle was heavily taped. This would be quite a quick recovery for Herbert. It's probably best to err on the side of caution with Herbert and lean towards him not playing. He's currently our QB28 because of the strong question mark on his playing status. Easton Stick would be in line to start if Herbert is out.

Herbert has been on the injury report a couple of times as we head into the third game of the season, yet has taken all 51 dropbacks for the 2-0 Chargers. Their offense has been very efficient, though most of that has come through the run game, rendering Herbert un-startable in fantasy, regardless of game-day designation.

Bears WR Keenan Allen (heel) has been ruled out for Sunday's game with the Colts.

In a follow-up tweet, it was announced that Odunze has no injury designation, so it's possible he has a little bit of a coming-out party in Week 3. That said, the Colts rush defense has been awful through two weeks, so it's likely the Bears focus on the ground game. Moore is still a must-start WR2 while Odunze floats into desperation Flex status.

Browns plan to sign free agent running back Royce Freeman to the practice squad.

Freeman did pretty well when he saw action with the Rams toward the end of last season. He was with Dallas this summer where he drew some hype, and for about a week the team had us convinced he may see significant action for the Cowboys. However, he was eventually released.
