Alshon Jeffery (illness) out Sunday

Oct 09, 2020

Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said WR Alshon Jeffery will not play Sunday because he did not practice enough, according to Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Inquirer. Pederson said a non-COVID illness prevented Jeffery from getting in enough practice time.

Fantasy Impact:

Bad news for the thin Eagles receiving corps in Week 5, but good news for Jeffery as he appears set to play in Week 6.

The Seahawks placed WR Jake Bobo on season-ending injured reserve with a knee injury.

Fantasy Impact:

Bobo suffered the injury during Friday's joint practice with the Titans after being taken to the ground near the sideline. He was set to be a core special-teamer this season and was recently working as the No. 4 receiver while Tory Horton recovers from his leg injury from last season.

J.K. Dobbins says he feels great heading into season

Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins told reporters Saturday he "feels great" as he gets ready for the regular season.

Fantasy Impact:

Dobbins was asked if he will play at all during the preseason after dealing with a soft tissue injury earlier this month. "I'm not sure. I'm just trying to be ready for the regular season. I feel great."

Dobbins has said in the past he hopes to play all 17 games this season. If so, he can be a value pick in the middle rounds as the lead back for the Broncos behind one of, if not arguably the best, offensive lines in the NFL. The Broncos will likely play it safe with their lead back before letting him loose on September 14 against the Chiefs.

Tate participated in Friday’s joint practice after missing time with general stiffness. The rookie had taken a hard hit Monday, but the Titans said his subsequent absence was unrelated and he was not in concussion protocol.

Fantasy Impact:

This clears up a minor availability concern and puts Tate on track to play Sunday. His ADP and ranking remain closely aligned, although his quiet preseason debut and potentially back-weighted rookie production keep him in the WR3 range.
