Patriots WR Josh Gordon has filed for reinstatement

Aug 03, 2019

Josh Gordon has applied for reinstatement according to Howard Balzer BalzerFootball.com.

Fantasy Impact:

Gordon missed 2015 and 2016 due to suspensions related to substance abuse. He was reinstated in 2018 and played 11 games before receiving another indefinite suspension. Reports have hinted at Gordon getting another chance this season and this would be the first step in that process. New England signed Gordon to a one-year deal despite his suspension and Tom Brady spent time this offseason practicing with him. It seems the team believes there is a chance he'll be able to play, so we should as well. He is still under thirty and looked as if he was getting on the same page with Brady before his suspension last season. With a thin receiving core in New England, Gordon should quickly return to the starting lineup if he is allowed to return and we will likely see his ADP move fast from his current spot around the 200th player off the board.

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.
