Chargers RB Mike Tolbert (not injury related probable) ...

Keenan Allen was formally charged Tuesday with two misdemeanors stemming from his August arrest: operating a vehicle with an alcohol concentration of at least 0.15 and operating while intoxicated.

Allen posted a $500 cash bond, and his attorneys waived an initial hearing scheduled for Wednesday. An attorney conference is scheduled for Oct. 26. Colts coach Shane Steichen declined to discuss the case Wednesday morning, but Allen was expected to participate in practice.

There is currently no indication that the charges will affect Allen’s Week 2 availability. Fantasy managers can proceed normally while monitoring for any response from the Colts or NFL. A future suspension would create additional target opportunities for Pierce, Downs, and Warren, but projecting one at this stage would be premature.

ESPN’s Dan Graziano reports that the Vikings are expected to start Carson Wentz if Kyler Murray cannot clear the concussion protocol before Sunday’s game against Chicago.

J.J. McCarthy could dress as Wentz’s backup in that scenario. Minnesota believes Wentz’s veteran experience gives the offense a better short-notice option, rather than this being a definitive demotion for McCarthy.

Wentz produced three touchdowns after replacing Murray in Week 1 and would be a viable lower-end Superflex starter against Chicago. The report also provides clarity for Jefferson managers: Wentz, not McCarthy, appears positioned to direct the offense if Murray cannot play.

Tagovailoa's injury, an oblique strain, can linger, which puts his Week 2 status up in the air. So, Cooper Rush starting another week wouldn't be shocking. What helps Tagovailoa's case is his accuracy, which Stefanski highly values. If Tagovailoa's body doesn't totally break down in the short term and he can return before Penix is ready, perhaps Tagovailoa can provide a spark.

Rush would be a low-end QB2 for Superflex managers against Carolina. Another Rush start would introduce additional volatility for London and Pitts, while Robinson’s workload makes him considerably less sensitive to Atlanta’s quarterback uncertainty.
