Michael Thomas (ankle) absent from Thursday's practice

Sep 24, 2020

According to Ian Rapoport on Twitter, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas missed Thursday's practice.

Fantasy Impact:

Thomas' Week 3 status is in doubt due to a high ankle sprain. The short week will do him no favors, and while Thomas himself is chomping at the bit to play, the Saints are wisely choosing to protect their superstar wide receiver from himself. The Saints passing game looked anemic outside of Alvin Kamara, with both Emmanuel Sanders and Tre'Quan Smith failing to seize the moment. Deonte Harris saw just over 50% of the snaps in Week 3.

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.
