Jets hopeful Eric Decker plays Week 4

Sep 23, 2014

The Jets’ best wide receiver, Eric Decker, tweaked his right hamstring in the loss at Green Bay. It is the same hamstring that bugged him during training camp. Decker tried to play Monday night, but left after he played 12 snaps, because his hamstring tightened. He didn’t get into the game at all in the second half. HC Rex Ryan said he is hopeful Decker can play against the Lions.

“I think with that hamstring, we’ll see how it is,” Ryan said. “Hopefully, he’ll be ready to play.”

Fantasy Impact:

Ryan had no regrets about playing Decker and feels he took himself out of the game before things got worse with the hamstring injury. As a result, Ryan is hopeful Decker can go. It's an early game so we'll know for sure about an hour before kickoff, but owners will risk a similar outcome to Week 3 with Decker in their lineups...

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

Scott Bair

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.
