Josh Freeman is well aware of his mistakes in the red zone.

"Two turnovers in the red zone, that's just unacceptable," Freeman said. "That's something you really don't anticipate doing or expect to do at any time. And we talk about it all the time."

Part of the game plan includes running a check of Freeman's confidence, which has been so high lately he often has tried to squeeze passes into spots they simply cannot fit.

While the mistakes and wasted scoring chances are a legitimate cause for concern, the Buccaneers remain as confident as ever in Freeman, largely because the overall results are still glowing.

Freeman has completed 72-of-106 attempts for 682 yards with two touchdowns. Though his passer rating of 76.1 is nearly 20 points lower than at the end of last season, he continues to make big plays in the clutch.

On third-down plays, he ranks fourth in the league with a 104.8 passer rating. In the fourth quarter, he ranks 10th in completion percentage (69.8) and 17th in passer rating (94.2).

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.

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.
