Michael Thomas (hamstring/ankle) misses practice

Oct 22, 2020

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas missed Thursday's practice session due to a hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact:

The timetable of when Michael Thomas initially suffered the hamstring injury is in question, but what is not in doubt is that his chances of suiting up this weekend took a hit with his second straight missed session. He will likely need to log at least a limited session on Friday to be cleared to play against the Panthers. While Thomas may have been able to play hobbled with the high ankle sprain if the team let him, hamstring injuries are trickier, so the severity of the injury could be revealed by his participation level in tomorrow's practice. He will still be a WR1 option if he does suit up, although his floor will likely be too low to match his DFS salary.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
