The Pat White situation needs to be resolved soon, because he’s taking away reps from the other quarterbacks: It’s not that Chad Henne isn’t getting enough opportunities in practice, but with four quarterbacks in camp, Chad Pennington and Tyler Thigpen aren’t getting as many at-bats as they should to help them prepare should they be called on to play.

White’s play in training camp has bordered on awful. Tuesday, he overthrew Taurus Johnson on a 20-yard pass in which there was no defense. He skipped the first day of camp with “personal issues,” and clearly isn’t in the Dolphins’ long-term plans, following a terrible rookie season and second shaky training camp. The Dolphins would be best served cutting bait with White sooner rather than later, so the other quarterbacks can take more reps in practice.

Fantastic news for fantasy managers hanging on to Mike Evans: he should be considered a WR1 option immediately.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
