Vincent Jackson feeling no signs of age

Aug 09, 2015

As he spoke to the media for the first time this training camp Sunday, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Vincent Jackson was asked if he’s seen any signs that his age is catching up to him.

“Absolutely not," said Jackson, 32. “I feel as good as I did six or seven years ago. It’s a blessing. I’ve been healthy and lucky. But, at the same time, I put in a lot of work as well."

Jackson said he feels invigorated, and there are two reasons for that. One is the arrival of rookie quarterback Jameis Winston. The other is the presence of new offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter.

“I’m loving it," Jackson said. “The offensive system we’ve got in, it’s just been so balanced. We’re running the ball better already than we did last year. It’s fun."

Fantasy Impact:

Jackson is coming off a 1,000-yard receiving season, but he sounds like he expects this year to be even better, the story said. Jackson slips a bit in our fantasy rankings this year though, thanks to teammate Mike Evans. Jackson is still ranked 29th on our list and is a potential late sixth round addition. Winston should provide more stability at the QB position even with the expected growing pains.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift, WR Keenan Allen both Questionable for Week 12

Scott Bair

D'Andre Swift is questionable to play Vikings with a groin injury, though he was limited Thursday and a full participant on Friday.

Keenan Allen is questionable with an ankle injury. He was limited on Friday, his first day on the participation report.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze

Fantasy Impact:

Separate reports called Swift "very likely" to play, but this is seemingly a new issue for Allen.

If Keenan were to miss Week 12, it would boost the floor of all pass-catchers, namely Moore, Oduzne, and Cole Kmet. Moore + Odunze would sneak closer to WR2 territory than their low-end WR3 designations they have with a healthy Allen.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco officially Out for Week 12

Charles Omenihu (knee) and Isiah Pacheco (ankle) won’t play on Sunday, per Coach Reid.

“Just taking it day-by-day,” Reid added.

Related Players: Samaje Perine

Fantasy Impact:

It was later reported that Pacheco was "healthy enough" but they're hoping to hold him back one more game with a short week coming up. This makes Hunt a volume-based RB2 in Week 12.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb returns to Friday practice

CeeDee Lamb practiced today, per Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy. That’s a good sign.

Lamb (back/foot) was limited in a walkthrough on Wednesday and missed practice on Thursday.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks, Ryan Flournoy

Fantasy Impact:

Obviously good news for the Cowboys' potential in rolling out an NFL offense in Week 12. The floor is capped for Lamb but we should expect a ton of action funneling his way against the Commanders, which puts him on the WR1/2 fringe.
