His meeting with Roger Goodell went well, Kenny Britt said, and he expects to learn this week whether he will be punished for some run-ins with the law during the 4½-month NFL lockout.

“He didn’t scold me or anything. He was happy — not happy that I was in there for those situations — but he’s a nice type of guy, a very likable guy,’’ Britt said at Nashville International Airport. “We’ll find out sometime later this week what he decides to do.”

Britt said the commissioner asked about his offseason troubles and made it clear he wanted to do what’s best for the league as well as for Britt and his family.

“He asked me questions about certain situations and I told him what happened,’’ Britt said. “I think it went well. I hope so. I have a smile on my face, I am still breathing. So everything is good.”

Titans guard Jake Scott, the team's NFL Players Association representative, said Monday the union would challenge any fine or suspension for actions during the lockout.

“I'm still hoping nothing happens to me,” Britt said.

Fantasy Impact:

If Britt ends up being suspended for 1-2 games, it won't be a big deal for fantasy owners. Britt has been going for a discount in the 6th round or later all offseason and that's a good spot for him with that type of suspension. If Goodell drops the hammer (via a 4-game suspension), then Britt's stock will fall a bit further. The WR also has a hamstring issue, but talent-wise, he's a 3rd/4th-round pick. There are much safer options in the 3rd-5th, but he's a high-upside WR3 in the 6th/7th.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker listed as DNP; RB Zach Carbonnet full

Seahawks listed RB Kenneth Walker III as a Did Not Practice today while RB Zach Charbonnet was upgraded to full practice ahead of Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Fantasy Impact:

Walker is dealing with an ankle injury and as we get closer to Thursday his status really seems to be in doubt. Charbonnet would be the team's lead back and looks to be good to go despite dealing with an elbow injury. He'd once again be a great option if Walker is unable to go.

Charger RBs Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins listed as limited

Gus Edwards is listed as a limited participant due to an ankle injury. Edwards ran 14 times for 68 yards and two touchdowns in last Sunday’s win over the Broncos.

J.K. Dobbins (knee) was also limited in his first appearance on the injury report since being designated for return from injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said if Dobbins is going to play against the Patriots, the Chargers will have to activate him by Friday. It could be a tricky situation depending on each back's status. Owners will want to pay close attention to this situation leading up to game time.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow, WR Tee Higgins listed as limited

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow told reporters on Tuesday that he feels like he’s totally past his right wrist injury, but it still landed him on the team’s injury report.

Burrow was listed as limited due to the wrist and his knee

Wide receiver Tee Higgins (ankle, knee) was listed as limited as well,

Fantasy Impact:

The story said Burrow's injury shouldn’t create much cause for concern about his availability against the Broncos on Saturday since he was listed as limited all of last week before playing without issue in the team’s win over the Browns. Burrow added there are still things he does to help with it but he's pretty much past it. The story added Higgins also played without incident last Sunday after being on the report all week.
