Jets acquire WR Davante Adams

Oct 15, 2024

The Raiders are completing a trade of star WR Davante Adams to the Jets, sources say.

Fantasy Impact:

This seemed like just a matter of time, and finally Adams is back with his good friend Rodgers. The deal was for a third round pick, according to other reports. Adams and Rodgers are very familiar with one another, and it should make for a smooth transition. It's possible Adams plays in Week 7. It's likely going to be a hit to Wilson's fantasy stock, just when Rodgers and Wilson were getting things going, too. There's a report also out today that Williams ran the wrong route in the MNF loss, and was called out by Rodgers after it resulted in an interception. The addition of Adams likely means Williams takes a big backseat in the offense, and it's even possible he gets moved before the deadline at this point. As for the Raiders, Bowers could be the focal point of this offense going forward as Meyers, Tucker and Turner battle it out to have fantasy relevance at WR. It may take some time for a pecking order to develop here, so anyone hurting for WR help can take a flier on at least Tucker and Turner, who may be on your wire.

Cowboys hope to get WR Brandin Cooks (knee) back for Week 12

Calvin Watkins on X

Mike McCarthy said he's hoping Cowboys will get WR Brandin Cooks (knee) back this week.

Fantasy Impact:

Cooper Rush will get the start at QB again against the Commanders in Week 12. CeeDee Lamb led the way with 12 targets vs. the Texans, but it was Luke Schoonmaker, who took over after Jake Ferguson left with a concussion, who had 10 targets which was most behind Lamb. The addition of Cooks should help the Cowboys offense in what is a good matchup against the Commanders defense. For the fantasy world, Rush did end up throwing for 354 yards.

Cowboys will start Cooper Rush at QB in Week 12

Mike McCarthy said Cooper Rush "will be the starter" this week against Washington and a package of plays will be formed for Trey Lance.

Fantasy Impact:

McCarthy came out and said he regrets not giving Lance a chance to run the offense in the loss to the Texans on Monday Night, but even after that the team is going forward with Rush in Week 12 against the Commanders. One would have to assume Rush gets the start the following week as well, which is a short week and a game on Thanksgiving Day game against the Giants.

49ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) 'close' to playing in Week 11

Shanahan said George Kittle was “close” to playing against Seattle and should be able to practice Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

It's at least a good sign Kittle is expected to practice Wednesday. The hope is he will be ready to go in Week 12. The 49ers play at the Packers, and it's in the later Sunday window so owners will certainly want to pay attention to what kind of work Kittle can get in this week at practice.
