Theo Riddick out with undisclosed injury

Jul 31, 2016

The Detroit Lions have suffered their first injury of training camp.

Tailback Theo Riddick participated the first two days of camp, but missed Sunday's padded practice due to an issue that coach Jim Caldwell declined to disclose. He watched from the sidelines in shorts and a baseball cap.

"Anytime you don't have someone out there you'd like them to be out there working," Lions coach Jim Caldwell said. "But he'll be all right."

Fantasy Impact:

Riddick is coming off a season in which he set club records for receptions and receiving yards by a tailback, and figures to have an equally expansive role in the new Jim Bob Cooter offense. Ameer Abdullah and Stevan Ridley both returned in time for the start of training camp on Friday, though Abdullah is wearing a red no-contact jersey. His activity has ramped up the past two days, though, working as the club's No. 1 tailback and also shagging punts.

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.
