Titans RB Derrick Henry (calf) expects to be ready Week 1

Aug 27, 2019

Everything is pointing toward Derrick Henry being ready for the Titans' 2019 season opener against the Browns in Cleveland on Sept. 8.

"That's the plan," Henry said Tuesday, speaking with reporters for the first time this preseason.

Fantasy Impact:

Henry suffered a left calf injury on July 26, the first day of training camp. He didn't even make it to the team period during practice that day — he said he injured himself on the first drill. Henry proceeded to miss the rest of training camp and each of the team's first three preseason games. He returned to practice for the first time since the injury last week, the story said.

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.
