Zach Ertz (ankle) lands on injured reserve

Oct 22, 2020

The Philadelphia Eagles have placed star tight end, Zach Ertz, on short-term injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact:

Ertz is dealing with a high ankle sprain with a 4-6 week timetable, so the move to free up roster space by stashing him on the short term injured reserve list is not unexpected. The Eagles will need to get by with their third-string tight end Richard Rodgers until at least Week 10, which is the low end of Ertz's timeframe. Dallas Godert will also be sidelined until Week 10. DeSean Jackson and Travis Fulgham should get all the targets they can handle until then.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

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.
