RB Theo Riddick to sign with Broncos

Aug 01, 2019

Beat reporter Mike Kilis tweets, "Barring the unexpected, it appears coveted free agent RB Theo Riddick will sign with the Broncos later this week, per source. Saints were also in on Riddick and several other teams called on former Lion. Appears Elway about to give Joe Flacco a new weapon."

Fantasy Impact:

Theo Riddick joins the Broncos for the 2019 season and is the only running back to catch 50 or more passes over the last four seasons and will help a thin Broncos receiving core. There are multiple reports of Phillip Lindsay seeing more work as a receiver this year and this signing likely dampens that receiving upside, but only to a degree. Riddick's presence could possibly push Devontae Booker off the team as well.

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.
