Eagles RB Josh Adams gets more playing time

Oct 29, 2018

Coming into Sunday’s game in London, Eagles rookie running back Josh Adams had 18 snaps this season. He doubled that at Wembley Stadium.

Adams got 18 snaps (29 percent) and he made the most of them. He carried the nine times for 61 yards. Both were highs for the team on Sunday and career highs.

Related players: Wendell Smallwood, Corey Clement

Fantasy Impact:

Smallwood led the way with 31 snaps while Clement got just 13. In his last two games, Clement has just 12 carries for 12 yards. The Eagles may not be afraid to give the free agent rookie Adams more work going forward as just a year ago it was Clement, who was also a rookie free agent, who excelled for the team during its Super Bowl run. The Eagles have a bye in Week 9, but starting Week 10 Adams could continue to see more work.

A quick update on Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew: he suffered a broken collarbone against the Broncos and is out for the season.

Fantasy Impact:

We had just posted the quote from head coach Antonio Pierce, saying it didn’t look good. It turned out it wasn’t good. Minshew looked like he was in a lot of pain after taking the his late in the game. Now we have an understanding of that pain. Desmond Ridder came on in relief and the team is expected to activate Aidan O’Connell this week from injured reserve. The Raiders visit Kansas City on Friday.

Antonio Pierce on Gardner Minshew injury: ‘It doesn’t look good.’

Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce said “It doesn’t look good” in regards to the shoulder injury to quarterback Gardner Minshew.

Fantasy Impact:

Minshew went down late in the game against the Broncos after taking a sack and looked to be in quite a bit of pain. He’ll undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury.

Desmond Ridder came on in replacement. He went 5-of-10 for 64 yards and was sacked twice. If Minshew is to miss time, which looks very likely, the Raiders may look to see what they have in the former Falcons quarterback. Vegas is also expected to have Aidan O’Connell back this week. The Raiders are on a short week as they head to Kansas City on Black Friday.

Romeo Doubs ruled out with concussion

Packers WR Romeo Doubs was ruled out of Sunday’s game against the 49ers with a concussion.

Fantasy Impact:

Doubs suffered the injury while attempting a catch in the end zone and landing hard on the back of his helmet. Doubs will not return tonight and it’s almost certain he’ll be ruled out for Thursday night against the Dolphins. If that’s the case, his next chance to return would be the following Thursday against the Lions.
