According to Graham Gano’s wife on Instagram, the veteran kicker has been released by the Carolina Panthers. The report was later confirmed by Joseph Person of the Athletic, and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.

The Panthers will save $2.75 million by cutting Graham Gano. The move comes as little surprise as Carolina already has a cheaper, more effective option in-house in sophomore Joey Slye ($675K). Slye did miss some big kicks, but was otherwise highly impressive as a rookie, making moving on from Gano a no-brainer. Gano will look to latch on with another team once he is fully recovered from the knee injury that landed him on injured reserve prior to Week 1 of the 2019 season. Slye is our 22nd ranked kicker for the 2020 season.

According to ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques, Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary may operate as the featured back until Zack ‘Moss proves he deserves a larger share’ of the backfield touches.

Devin Singletary could very well start the 2020 season with a much larger role than many may have him pegged for. Rookie running back Zack Moss will make his presence felt in the backfield, but there is ample reason to believe that Singletary will still see more than enough touches to outperform his current ADP as the 22nd running back off the board. In his final eight games of 2019, Singletary racked up 131 carries for 603 rushing yards (4.6 yards per carry), and 20 receptions for 136 receiving yards, compared to just 187 yards from scrimmage on 68 touches for Frank Gore. Zack Moss will have value due to his goal line work and projected late season role, but Singletary could exceed 250+ touches if he keeps up his second half pace and workload split.

Joe Buscaglia: I believe the Bills would like to get Singletary more involved in the passing game this year, too. He’s an underrated route runner and his open-field vision makes him a potentially dangerous pass catcher. Singletary would likely draw the assignment of a linebacker or safety, and the Bills will like that matchup with how often he makes people miss.

Devin Singletary averaged 3.4 targets per game in 2019, but Buscaglia expects that number to rise in his sophomore season with the Bills. The Buffalo back is ranked as RB29 in half-PPR formats on 4for4.com and is leaving draft boards as a late-fourth to fifth-rounder.

If Drew Lock finishes the season like he started it, there is no reason to draft a quarterback early.

Lock has looked very good over the last few weeks and if it keeps up over the rest of the season, the Broncos can use those early picks to find a combination of immediate starters and depth options. It’s a golden chance for John Elway to find key contributors, Ryan O'Halloran said in his weekly mailbag.

Tate has been practicing in full all week and now he should be fully ready for Monday's game against the Eagles. Eli Manning will have a full assortment of weapons against the Eagles' defense, as he's also expected to have Sterling Shepard and Evan Engram in the mix, along with Darius Slayton.
