Broncos sign RB Stevan Ridley

Jul 27, 2017

With Devontae Booker sidelined for about six weeks with a small fracture in his wrist, the Broncos signed free-agent running back Stevan Ridley to join the competition in the backfield.

Ridley, a seven-year veteran, was a featured back for the Patriots from 2011 until 2014, racking up 2,817 rushing yards over four seasons. In his best season, he totaled 1,263 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns on the ground. His final season with the Patriots was cut short by a season-ending ACL and MCL tear in Week 6.

Fantasy Impact:

In the years since, Ridley has spent stints with the Jets, Lions, Colts and Falcons.

“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

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.
