TEN: TE Cook still slowed by injury

Sep 29, 2009

Titans rookie tight end Jared Cook is still slowed by an ankle injury and has yet to record his first NFL reception.

"I'm hopeful that he'll be 100 percent this week," Fisher said. "He's still struggling with it. … We want to get him involved in our game plan, but a lot has to do with how he responds this week."

Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles said Monday that wide receiver Emeka Egbuka, the Bucs' first-round draft pick in 2025, is "day-to-day, week-to-week" with a toe sprain suffered during joint practices at the New York Jets last week.

Bowles also said wide receiver Jalen McMillan, who has missed almost two full weeks of practice with what the coach described as a "banged-up knee," is still "day-to-day, week-to-week as well."

Fantasy Impact:

Bowles added that he's "not sure at this time" if the situation will impact Egbuka's availability for Week 1. With Mike Evans now on the San Francisco 49ers, Egbuka, who is lining up primarily as a Z receiver, is expected to get a large number of targets in 2026. The story didn't specifically say, but the same assumption probably goes for McMillan as well, and his Week 1 status. The injuries could benefit rookie Hurst, who was already having a good camp according to reports.

Packers TE Tucker Kraft (ACL) cleared for team drills

How eager was Tucker Kraft to get on the practice field Sunday? He was the first player out of the Don Hutson Center and onto the practice field. The reason? He was finally cleared to do 11-on-11 team drills. While Kraft had returned to practice on July 31, he had been limited only to individual drills as he continued his comeback from last year's ACL surgery.

Fantasy Impact:

Kraft caught all five of the passes thrown his way in practice, including one touchdown that prompted an emphatic spike and his chest-bumping, starfish celebration, the story went on to say. Kraft tore his ACL in Week 9 last season and is looking for a contract extension, the story added. Before his injury, Kraft was on pace for a 73-catch, 1,139-yard, 14.6-touchdown season, and he comes into this year ranked fifth on our TE list.
