Arian Foster impresses in first practice

Jul 31, 2016

The uniform is different. But there were flashes from new Miami Dolphins running back Arian Foster Sunday where he looked like his same old self.

Foster made a "wow play" in drills right off the bat when he caught a one-handed pass in the corner of the end zone. He also had a nice, cutback run in team drills for a solid gain.

Fantasy Impact:

The Foster updates will likely come fast and furious, much to the dismay of Jay Ajayi owners, but Foster is looking more and more like he's going to have fantasy value in the Miami offense so his progress is worth monitoring. We continue to have Foster slightly ahead of Ajayi in our PPR rankings. Looks like at this point he just needs to stay healthy.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
