There is "some concern" regarding 49ers WR Ricky Pearsall's knee

Jul 29, 2026

49ers WR Ricky Pearsall is dealing with knee swelling related to the PCL injury he suffered last year. Team says “all options” are being explored and there is some concern.

Fantasy Impact:

Pearsall has flashed when healthy and on the field, but that hasn't been a very common occurrence through his young career. Kirk is also dealing with a calf strain at the moment, so we could see some upward momentum for rookie De'Zhaun Stribing before camp is over. He's currently off the redraft fantasy radar, but we should keep an eye on some extra snaps for him over the next month.

Falcons QB Michael Penix Jr. says it may be another four weeks before he's cleared

Marc Raimondi

Michael Penix Jr. said it might be another four weeks to get cleared or maybe earlier, depending on how his body feels during camp.

Related Players: Tua Tagovailoa, Cooper Rush

Fantasy Impact:

This comes on the heels of Tagovailoa dealing with a tight back and the team signing Rush earlier today. The QB situation in Atlanta is as shaky as ever, and it's not great news for the team's fantasy pieces. We'll see how this clears out between now and Week 1, but it would be fantastic for Drake London and Kyle Pitts' ceiling outcomes if this gets settled sooner rather than later.

Nick Caserio said wide receiver Jaylin Noel hurt his finger and should be back in a few weeks.

Related Players: Nico Collins, Jayden Higgins, Tank Dell

Fantasy Impact:

With positive news coming out about Dell making strides toward his long-term comeback, this could be about the worst time for Noel to be missing time. For the time being, Noel should probably be considered the fourth fantasy option out of this group, unless we hear of a setback for Dell.

Jaguars RB Chris Rodriguez (foot) cleared for individual work

Jaguars RB Chris Rodriguez (foot) has been cleared and will do individual work today but team will ramp him up so no team work initially. Same for CB Christian Braswell.

Related Players: Bhayshul Tuten, LeQuint Allen

Fantasy Impact:

The Chris Rodriguez hype has been dissipating as the summer has moved along, as his Liam Coen Kentucky connection seems to have been overshadowed by the fact that he has six professional receptions over three seasons. With LeQuint Allen handling most of the third-down snaps and Bhayshul Tuten offering explosives in all aspects of the game, Rodriguez has a very narrow path to become anything more than a low-end RB3.
