No word on QB Edwards' after concussion

Oct 21, 2009

No word yet from One Bills Drive on Trent Edwards' condition after his Sunday concussion at the Meadowlands. The schedule in the interview room lists Edwards as one of the players who will be at the microphone for weekly press sessions. That doesn't necessarily mean he will be the starting quarterback on Sunday in Carolina. Dick Jauron likes to keep opponents in the dark as long as possible in these situations, as we discovered two years ago during the Edwards-Losman QB saga.

There is a lot of sentiment out there for Ryan Fitzpatrick to get his first start at QB, regardless of Edwards' status. Fitzpatrick led the Bills to a comeback win. He actually hit Lee Evans on a slant for a 37-yard touchdown. It's understandable that frustrated fans would want to see more of the guy from Harvard.

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.
