WAS: No. 2 wideout a mystery

Aug 29, 2009

The Redskins have a clear-cut No. 1 wide receiver, Santana Moss, and a top-flight tight end, Chris Cooley.

Nothing dispelled that in the first half of Friday's preseason game against New England at FedEx Field. Facing the Patriots' regulars, Moss had five catches for 56 yards and Cooley had two receptions for 87 yards, including a 73-yard play.

The question is who will emerge as the No. 2 wideout. Moss is small, and the Redskins want more size at the position. They would love to see Malcolm Kelly or Devin Thomas, second-round draft picks in 2008 who struggled last season, step up and displace the experienced but undersized (5-foot-10, 185 pounds) Antwaan Randle el.

It's still up for grabs.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
