Colts expect QB Luck to be in camp

Jul 19, 2012

Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay said yet again that the team’s contract negotiations with quarterback Andrew Luck are “close” to completion.

Washington announced yesterday the signing of quarterback Robert Griffin III --- the second choice behind Luck in the NFL Draft. Griffin signed a guaranteed four-year, $21.1 million deal.

“Anybody who's done negotiations knows that you can get close and then remain close for a long period of time,” Irsay said at a news conference announcing the city’s intention to bid for the 2018 Super Bowl. “You know, close doesn't always mean that it's going to get done the next day.

“But ... he'll be in camp, there is no question that he'll be signed in time."

Fantasy Impact:

We rank Luck 20th among our QBs, which puts him at a value of low-end QB2. His ADP has him going in the 14th round in ten-team leagues, but he'll likely go before that to some excited owner who overvalues him. He'll likely have some use in certain matchups, but clearly there are better options to focus on as far as QBs go.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift, WR Keenan Allen both Questionable for Week 12

D'Andre Swift is questionable to play Vikings with a groin injury, though he was limited Thursday and a full participant on Friday.

Keenan Allen is questionable with an ankle injury. He was limited on Friday, his first day on the participation report.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze

Fantasy Impact:

Separate reports called Swift "very likely" to play, but this is seemingly a new issue for Allen.

If Keenan were to miss Week 12, it would boost the floor of all pass-catchers, namely Moore, Oduzne, and Cole Kmet. Moore + Odunze would sneak closer to WR2 territory than their low-end WR3 designations they have with a healthy Allen.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco officially Out for Week 12

Charles Omenihu (knee) and Isiah Pacheco (ankle) won’t play on Sunday, per Coach Reid.

“Just taking it day-by-day,” Reid added.

Related Players: Samaje Perine

Fantasy Impact:

It was later reported that Pacheco was "healthy enough" but they're hoping to hold him back one more game with a short week coming up. This makes Hunt a volume-based RB2 in Week 12.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb returns to Friday practice

CeeDee Lamb practiced today, per Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy. That’s a good sign.

Lamb (back/foot) was limited in a walkthrough on Wednesday and missed practice on Thursday.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks, Ryan Flournoy

Fantasy Impact:

Obviously good news for the Cowboys' potential in rolling out an NFL offense in Week 12. The floor is capped for Lamb but we should expect a ton of action funneling his way against the Commanders, which puts him on the WR1/2 fringe.
