DeSean Jackson makes Eagles offense "more dynamic"

Jun 13, 2019

DeSean Jackson makes the offense so much more dynamic.
Yes, it’s only the offseason program. Yes, there is only minimal contact. Yes, Carson Wentz can’t be hit.
Still, the connection and timing between Wentz and Jackson has been on point throughout the offseason program. Eagles coach Doug Pederson pointed out that Jackson spent the entire offseason in Philadelphia working with Wentz. Their chemistry could benefit the rest of the offensive playmakers, as opposing defenses will need to respect their connection.

Fantasy Impact:

DeSean Jackson adds quickness and a deep threat to Philly's offense this season. Not only will having Jackson on the field benefit Wentz but Zach Ertz, Nelson Agholor and Alshon Jeffery should all see more breathing room with safeties focusing more on Jackson. Jeffery currently owns the highest ADP of the Eagles' wideouts as WR30, followed by Jackson as WR47 and Agholor being selected as WR79. Jackson is projected to score 151 PPR points by our forecaster John Paulson, and as a ninth-rounder, presents solid value in 2019.

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.
