There are several reasons Mike Brown is in Minnesota this week, but the biggest one is simple. There’s really nowhere else he would rather be.

The same is true of Cecil Shorts III, who – like Brown, his teammate in the Jaguars’ wide receivers corps – is in Minneapolis, Minn., with a slew of NFL wide receivers and quarterbacks at Larry Fitzgerald’s annual offseason workout camp at the University of Minnesota.

After running 31 yards on a designed quarterback keep in his only snap of Monday's showdown against the Ravens, Mariota will sit on IR for the next 3 weeks. He will be eligible to return Week 5 against the Bears. Expect Jon Gruden's golden boy, Nathan Peterman, to slide in as David Carr's primary backup.

After Michel only saw 3 snaps in Week 1's opener, McVay built up Darrell Henderson's role instead of addressing the questions about Michel seeing a bigger role in Week 2. "Darrell's going to start the game," McVay stated. "[He's] a guy that's done a really nice job and I was really pleased with how he got stronger as the game went on," he added.

Fantasy Impact:

Look for Henderson to handle a majority of the work out of the backfield for the Rams. Despite skepticism in the summer it looks as if McVay wants to give him a chance to prove he can stay healthy, an issue he has struggled with early in his career.

There was always an outside chance that Williams was going to play Monday night, but with an extra day to be cleared some had their hopes up.

Fantasy Impact:

The biggest beneficiary of Williams absence will be T.J. Hockenson, who vaults himself into one of Week 2's top tight end plays. Expect the Lions to deploy Quintez Cephus, Amon-Ra St. Brown and Kalif Raymond three-wide sets.
