Less Touches Expected For Matt Forte

Jun 15, 2010

The Bears didn't charge out of the gates in free agency and sign Chester Taylor in order for him to watch games from the sideline. He's going to play. In fact, the percentage of Matt Forte's touches is expected to be significantly lower than it has been in his previous two years.

Fantasy Impact:

As expected, the Bears will be using a Running Back By Committee for the 2010 season. Buyer beware! Before you pass judgement on Matt Forte, let training camp play out.

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

Mike Garafolo

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.
