49ers RB Raheem Mostert (knee) returns for limited practice

Oct 07, 2020

49ers starting running back Raheem Mostert returned to practice in a limited capacity Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

Mostert has missed the last two games with a knee issue but this news signifies he should return this week to take on the Dolphins. Jerick McKinnon has looked surprisingly good in Mostert's absence, meaning he could retain a larger role than he had to begin the year even with Mostert back in the lineup. Even so, the San Francisco running game is so potent it is possible for both Mostert and McKinnon to be relevant for fantasy. Mostert's return likely relegates Jeff Wilson Jr. to a strict backup role.

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.
