The Oakland Raiders lost league-leading rusher Darren McFadden to a sprained right foot two carries into Sunday’s 28-0 loss to Kansas City, but it may not be a long-term problem.

Considering McFadden will have two weeks off to recover—the Raiders have their bye this week—he likely will be available for their next game, Nov. 6 game against Denver.

McFadden received treatment in the locker room, had the foot taped and returned to the field. However, coach Hue Jackson opted against putting McFadden back into the game for fear of losing his most potent offensive weapon for the long term.

Eagles to sign WR A.J. Brown to three-year extension

The Eagles and star WR A.J. Brown agreed to terms on a new 3-year extension for $96M, the highest for any WR in NFL history. He’s now under contract through 2029 & his total guarantee of $84M is also the highest.

Related Players: DeVonta Smith, DeVante Parker, Parris Campbell

Fantasy Impact:

The Eagles are not messing around with their top two receivers, inking this deal just 10 days after locking in DeVonta Smith. Jalen Hurts remains insulated with high-level talent.

The Lions have a deal for one of the top young talents. They agreed on an extension for WR Amon-Ra St. Brown. He gets four years and more than $120M, with $77M guaranteed.

Fantasy Impact:

Good move for the Lions, who lock in their No. 1 pass-catching option. They will still likely address the position in the NFL Draft, but that shouldn't impact St. Brown.

The Jets are trading QB Zach Wilson to the Denver Broncos. The deal: Wilson and a 7th to Denver for a 6th.

Related Players: Jarrett Stidham

Fantasy Impact:

It's hard to picture this prohibiting the team from taking a QB in the NFL Draft but it certainly insulates them a little bit if they end up unable to move up where they want. Wilson's dynasty SuperFlex value will at least improve in the short term.
