Texans refer to TE Pharaoh Brown as starter

Aug 03, 2022

Houston head coach Lovie Smith referred to Brown as "our starting tight end" during Tuesday's post-practice news conference.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said Smith feels Brown is the most complete tight end on the team when one considers blocking, but the coach also talked about his catching skills and said he'll have a "big role." The story added Jordan may be the leading TE target in passing situations, however. So it seems like this may be an area that needs more time to figure out from a fantasy perspective.

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.
