Saquon Barkley (ankle) misses another practice

Oct 14, 2021

New York Giants running Saquon Barkley missed Thursday's practice due to an ankle injury.

Fantasy Impact:

Saquon suffered a grotesque ankle injury in Week 6 and is expected to be sidelined for multiple weeks. However, the Giants have not placed their star running back on short-term I.R. and thus are still providing injury updates. No one should expect a miraculous return to play for Week 6, but the reluctance to place him on injured reserve suggests that the Giants hope to have him back by or before Week 8. Devontae Booker will get the featured treatment with Saquon sidelined, with Elijah Penny backing him up. Booker is our 19th ranked running back for Week 6.

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.
