Aug 19, 2026

Texans WR Jayden Higgins tore his ACL, per a source, ending his 2026 season.

Fantasy Impact:

Is Collins going to get a 40% target share?

Noel has been dealing with his own injuries through camp, while Dell is coming out of that gruesome 2024 injury that has kept him sidelined since. We'll have to see how things shake out, but the only players we can really trust for fantasy purposes right now is Collins (WR1) and Schultz (mid-tier TE2).

Titans WR Carnell Tate misses Wednesday practice after hard hit on Monday

Carnell Tate reportedly took a big hit at the end of Tennessee Titans practice on Monday. Robert Saleh said afterwards that he was a bit shaken up, but that they did not think he had a concussion. So no real cause for concern until practice started today and there was no sign of Tate.

The good news is that Saleh said after practice today that Tate was held out because of stiffness. His absence today was not related to the hit he took earlier in the week. Hopefully, he will be available for the joint practice with the Seattle Seahawks on Friday. That is valuable work for a rookie.

Related Players: Wan'Dale Robinson, Calvin Ridley

Fantasy Impact:

Saleh’s explanation makes this sound minor, but Tate is being selected in the sixth round, so any extended time missed will start to put his role on what could be a pretty bad offense in question. His participation Friday should clarify whether Wednesday was merely precautionary.

Commanders RB Rachaad White misses Wednesday practice

Rachaad White missed practice with an injury, allowing Allen to get more work behind Croskey-Merritt.

Related Players: Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Kaytron Allen

Fantasy Impact:

One absence without a diagnosis is primarily something to monitor, but White’s ranking already trails his market price by 27 spots. Any extended absence would strengthen Croskey-Merritt’s grip on the lead role, while Allen could become more interesting in deeper formats.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara (knee) expected to miss 4-6 weeks

Saints running back Alvin Kamara is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with a sprained MCL. Kamara, 31, went down with ‌a knee injury during Tuesday's joint practice with the Dallas Cowboys. Initial tests confirmed he avoided a season-ending injury.

Related Players: Travis Etienne

Fantasy Impact:

Kamara had already been projected far behind Etienne, but this injury further solidifies Etienne’s early-season workload and removes some receiving competition from the backfield. Kamara is now difficult to justify at his current ADP unless his recovery progresses faster than expected.
