Schefter: Buccaneers TE O.J. Howard (MCL) to miss 2-4 weeks

Oct 01, 2018

Buccaneers’ TE O.J. Howard sprained his MCL and is expected to miss 2-4 weeks, per source.

Fantasy Impact:

The best-case scenario is Howard misses just one week since the Bucs have a bye in Week 5. Brate looks like he'll at least get the brunt of the workload for Week 6 against the Falcons and is a decent option for Howard owners who may be in a pinch.

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.
