Broncos QB Trevor Siemian has bruised shoulder

Aug 23, 2016

Trevor Siemian did not throw in Tuesday's practice due to what coach Gary Kubiak described as a bruised right (throwing) shoulder.

Siemian was in uniform for the workout, but he only took part in individual drills and was with the starting offense for its run-game work. He did not throw in any of the other practice periods.

"He just couldn't throw,'' Kubiak said following practice.

"He's got a very sore shoulder ... he did take run game and stuff in practice and took individual. We'll see where we're at (Wednesday)."

Fantasy Impact:

Many feel Siemian has an inside track to the starting job in Denver. He's expected to start on Saturday despite the shoulder issues on Tuesday, Kubiak said in the story.

Seahawks ruled out RB Kenneth Walker III for Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

No mention of Charbonnet here, so we can assume he's in a good place to take a massive workload against a Bears defense that ranks 27th in RB aFPA. Fire up Charbs as an RB2.

The Eagles list QB Jalen Hurts as DNP on their estimated practice report because of a concussion, putting his status for this weekend in doubt.

Steelers WR George Pickens officially Active for Christmas Day

Chiefs Pro-Bowl DT Chris Jones officially is inactive today vs. the Steelers.

Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. officially is inactive, WR George Pickens officially active.

Related Players: Calvin Austin III, Van Jefferson, Mike Williams

Fantasy Impact:

The Steelers WR room looks a little more palatable with Pickens in the lineup, but it's still not enough to push Russell Wilson above deep-league SuperFlex territory. Consider Pickens a WR3 for Week 17.
