Jaguars RB James Robinson expected to play in Week 1

Aug 18, 2022

James Robinson's timeline for recovery has long had him pegged for mid-August and, that's exactly when the team has him back.

Related Players: Travis Etienne, Snoop Conner

Fantasy Impact:

The intriguing running back room is becoming more intriguing as both Robinson and Travis Etienne could be back to full health by the time the regular season kicks off in September. It's difficult to believe that Etienne wouldn't handle nearly all of the passing-game work, but beat writers have been reporting for a while now that Robinson is the team's "true" RB1. We'll see how that designation translates into the fantasy world, but as of now, Robinson is a fringe RB3 option, going in the 10th round.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
