Jacoby Brissett will not play in third preseason game

Aug 23, 2019

Colts QB Jacoby Brissett will not play in Saturday’s preseason game against the Bears, per Zak Keefer of The Athletic.

Fantasy Impact:

The Colts are sitting majority of their starters and with the uncertainty of Andrew Luck, Brissett is currently the starter behind center. It still remains to be seen if Luck will be available for Week 1, but the Colts aren’t taking any chances with Brissett. Perhaps the injury scare to Cam Newton factored in to the decision but the Colts also really like what they have in Brissett and can’t afford him getting hurt. All signs are starting to point toward Brissett starting the opener against the Chargers.

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.
