Ravens WR Mike Wallace has concussion

Oct 22, 2017

WR Mike Wallace (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of the game.

After catching a short pass, Wallace was fighting forward for a few extra yards while being held upright. Then a Vikings defender drilled him in the head, sending his helmet flying and the ball coming out. It left Wallace on the ground.

Fantasy Impact:

Wallace was able to walk off with trainers the story said. Other reports had him fighting to go back in the game.

WR Mike Williams heads back to Chargers on one-year deal

Reunion: Veteran WR Mike Williams is returning to the Chargers on a one-year deal worth up to $6 million, per source.

Related Players: Ladd McConkey, D.J. Chark, Quentin Johnston

Fantasy Impact:

This is a nice low-risk offer to get a pure X receiver back for Justin Herbert. With Williams lining up out wide in the 80% range, even if he comes back as the team's No. 2 option, it shouldn't have much of an impact on McConkey, but it could push Johnston back into more of a complementary role after his high-usage 2024 season.

Williams should stick back in the WR4/5 range for fantasy purposes.

RB Rico Dowdle signs one-year deal with Panthers

The Panthers have agreed to a 1-year deal with RB Rico Dowdle, per league source.

Related Players: Chuba Hubbard

Fantasy Impact:

Carolina recently released Miles Sanders, so Dowdle should operate as an upgrade over the veteran. This is a much bigger hit to Hubbard's fantasy ceiling than Sanders functioned as last season, but it's not the best spot for Dowdle's fantasy aspirations, either.

If there are no more additions to the backfield, we should consider Hubbard a low-end RB2 and Dowdle a fringe RB3/4.

TE Evan Engram signing two-year deal with Broncos

Broncos are signing two-time Pro-Bowl TE Evan Engram to a two-year deal. Denver has been seeking TE help in recent seasons and now finally has found some.

Related Players: Adam Trautman, Lucas Krull

Fantasy Impact:

Much like in his college years, Bo Nix checked the ball down at a massive rate, which just so happens to be where Engram makes most of his noise. Though he's never been a huge run-after-catch option, Engram could find himself with enough volume to flirt with another 10-top fantasy season.
