Brees on Ingram: he can play a pretty significant role

Jun 03, 2011

Saints Rookie RB Mark Ingram has taken part in seven-on-seven drills, catching short passes from Brees and darting around defenders downfield. Although coverage has been relatively soft and contact nonexistent as players seek to minimize the risk of injury, Brees has been impressed with Ingram's work.

"He looks great. There's no doubt he's been working and he's in shape," Brees said. "He can play a pretty significant role on our offense."

Fantasy Impact:

The Saints 1st round pick Mark Ingram figures to get plenty of touches this season, but just how many will depend on the health of Pierre Thomas & Chris Ivory, along with the status of Reggie Bush once the season arrives.

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

Mike Garafolo

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.
