Rams head coach Sean McVay said that wide receiver Cooper Kupp and left guard Jonah Jackson are both set to miss extended time after suffering injuries in Sunday’s loss to the Cardinals. Kupp hurt his ankle and Jackson aggravated a shoulder injury.

McVay also confirmed that safety John Johnson will miss multiple weeks with a shoulder injury. He called all three players candidates for injured reserve.

With Nacua already on IR, the Rams offense is taking another hit with the loss of Kupp. Robinson and Johnson could take over as the team's top two, but those of you in the dynasty community may be high on Whittington, who has drawn comparisons to Nacua. Any of the three are worth picking up, and could get significant time over the next month at least.

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin tells reporters that the team is listing Russell Wilson (calf) as questionable for Sunday, but added: "If his availability is questionable, then starting is less so.”

Sounds like another week of Justin Fields starting against the Broncos.

Fields is definitely an interesting streaming choice for anyone worried about their quarterback's matchup. The ceiling is not great, but his rushing ability plants him firmly in the top-15, even in a tough matchup.

Denver isn't the best matchup for quarterbacks, but we know what Fields can do with his legs when given the opportunity, so he is a fringe QB1 on the week for those in need.

Right now, Mike Tomlin says they are preparing Justin Fields to start vs the Broncos.

The post went on to say the team will continue to evaluate Wilson's progress with his calf injury. It's still only Tuesday, so Wilson has a chance to get better as the week goes on, and we'll likely know if that's happening based on practice reports. In a different post from beat reporter Brooke Pryor, she pointed out there is no change in the Steelers depth chart at QB, and Wilson remains the QB1. If Wilson is good enough to go, it looks like he would get the start.

McVay clarifies, Puka Nacua will go to IR. He will miss four games minimum.

The news seemed to get worse for Nacua very quickly, going from week to week, to an IR candidate to now being placed on IR. The rest of the post went on to say Nacua aggravated his previous injury in a “more significant” manner. Rodrigue has reported many times that Johnson and Whittington have backed up Nacua. Atwell will probably get more snaps as well, according to Rodrigue. Johnson had a nice game behind Cooper Kupp in Week 1, but Whittington has been talked about in the dynasty community as a sleeper.

Nacua is still going through additional testing, according to Schefter. He is expected to be considered week to week, per sources. That likely means his Week 2 status is in doubt. The Rams are at Arizona in Week 2 in a later afternoon game, so owners will need a backup plan. Kupp took advantage with 14 catches and 110 yards and could do so again in Week 2 if Nacua is out of action. The Rams could look to Johnson (5-79-0), Robinson and Parkinson at TE to make up for the loss of Nacua, much like they did in Week 1. Whittington, who is a rookie, is another name to watch.

The Steelers officially list QB Russell Wilson (calf) as questionable for Sunday. Justin Fields took the first-team reps today.

While Wilson should remain on fantasy benches regardless of his status, keep an eye out for Fields, who offers a much better floor/ceiling combination because of his legs. He would be a top-15 option if he gets the nod.

Mike Williams available in Week 1, Saleh says. Had a nice day in practice today, with 4/5 catches, per Saleh. So there you have it: Mike Williams will play vs SF.

If everyone is healthy, namely Aaron Rodgers, the Jets could be interesting in fantasy for the first time in decades. Williams could carve out a role as a fantasy WR3 with upside for more.

Steelers have made their decision and Russell Wilson will be the starter for Week 1.

And the crowd goes mild. Wilson should only be considered in deep Superflex/2QB leagues, and there's no telling if he'll keep the job throughout the entirety of the season.

Among the notable claims:

#Bengals claimed DE KJ Henry
#Packers claimed K Brayden Narveson
#Dolphins claimed WR Grant DuBose
#Saints claimed KR/RB Kene Nwangwu

With Kendre Miller being entirely unable to stay on the field, Nwangwu could carve out a legitimate early-down role, even if he isn't usable in fantasy. Just one more knock against Miller at this point.
