Brian Westbrook suffered a concussion in the first quarter when he was kneed in the head by Redskins middle linebacker London Fletcher. There's a good chance he won't be able to play Sunday against the Giants.

The Colts won’t trade star RB Jonathan Taylor by today’s deadline.

Related players: Seth McGowan

Fantasy Impact:

The post said multiple teams offered a second-round pick and more for Taylor. But the Colts wanted a blockbuster offer to even consider it. So, Taylor stays and is part of an offense that will also feature TE Tyler Warren - and that's about it. Taylor should continue to get the volume but at some point the team may give more to McGowan, who did score a touchdown this past week against the Cowboys.

Dolphins send QB Malik Willis to IR, Kyle McCord to start

The Dolphins placed quarterback Malik Willis on injured reserve, the team announced.

Willis has had a groin injury that has limited his mobility, and an MRI showed it developed into a core muscle injury, Tom Pelissero of The Ringer reports.

Related players: Kyle McCord, Brady Cook

Fantasy Impact:

Pelissero said the injury is not season-ending, according to the post. This obviously not a good situation for the Dolphins offense, and the race seems to be on for the first overall pick with some of the other teams. McCord is expected to start but has never played in a regular season game. Cook saw some time with the Jets last season and will be the QB2. It won't hurt to add McCord in the deepest of two QB or superflex leagues, and even dynasty leagues if he happens to be on your wire, but it's probably unfair to expect him to be a fantasy factor.

Colts trade WR Josh Downs to Chiefs

Josh Downs has gotten his wish.

After requesting a trade from the Colts, the Chiefs have agreed to acquire the wide receiver, according to multiple reports.

Kansas City will receive Downs and a 2027 seventh-round pick in exchange for 2027 fourth- and fifth-round picks.

Related players: Laquon Treadwell, Ashton Dulin, Deion Burks

Fantasy Impact:

Downs, who is in his fourth season, has caught 33 passes for 354 yards with an interception so far in 2026. He had 58 catches for 566 yards with four touchdowns in 16 games last year, the story said. It's a nice addition for the Chiefs who needed depth at the position. This move should allow Downs to play out of the slot behind Rashee Rice. The trade leaves the Colts with Treadwell, Dulin and Burks at WR.
