Steelers RB James Conner (ankle) still being evaluated

Oct 01, 2019

Tomlin says James Conner (ankle) and Cam Heyward (quad) are being evaluated still. They'll be limited some this week. Practice will dictate game availability.

Tomlin is hopeful on Vince Williams, Vance McDonald and Anthony Chickillo.

Fantasy Impact:

Samuels is shaping up to be a must-add this week off waiver wires as Conner's status looks a bit cloudy heading into Week 5. The good news is Conner did return to the game after hurting the ankle, but is also dealing with a knee issue which was leading up to Week 3 at San Francisco.

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.
