49ers 'would guess' QB Jimmy Garoppolo starts Week 8

Oct 25, 2021

49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan was asked if Jimmy Garoppolo would start again in Week 8 against the Bears.

“I would guess so,” Shanahan said, via Jennifer Lee Chan of NBCSportsBayArea.com. “I will watch this tape and see if guys are healthy, first of all, and know where our guys are at. It was good for Jimmy to get healthy enough to play in this game today.”

Fantasy Impact:

While it doesn't seem like a confident answer, the story did say Shanahan added that he didn’t see “a ton of bad decisions” from Garoppolo. But the story added there weren’t enough good things either and that will keep questions about the quarterback spot front and center for the 49ers. It could be an interesting decision when Lance is healthy enough to play.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Adam Schefter

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.
