Fantasy Impact:

As the story said, Gainwell did finish the game despite being listed as not being able to practice today. It's a short week for the Eagles and they host the Vikings on TNF. Gainwell easily led the Eagles backfield in Week 1, but now seems to be dealing with a rib injury heading into Week 2. With only two touches in Week 1, the Eagles have already talked about getting Swift more involved.

“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.
