Broncos: RB Melvin Gordon to 'carry the load obviously'

Oct 04, 2022

OC Justin Outten: “With Melvin Gordon he’s going to carry the load obviously."

Related players: Latavius Murray, Damarea Crockett, Mike Boone

Fantasy Impact:

Otten went on to say, "We’ll have a mix of Mike Boone and after that we’ve got to figure out who can spell and who feels best in that position. But we trust Melvin going forward here.” Gordon is dealing with a neck injury and has been limited, so it's a least a little unclear how much the other backs will see the field. Boone had three carries and a catch and is probably worth a pickup but his workload is a question until we see more. Murray was just signed and is coming off a 57-yard, one-TD performance with the Saints in Week 4 and could also get carries at some point.

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.
