Packers.com: Like a lot of young players, RB Deshawn Wynn has had
some ups and downs during his first 2 seasons, starting four games
as a rookie in '07 before being released in training camp and
landing on the practice squad this year. After not getting many
opportunities this season since being signed back to the active
roster, Wynn made his most significant contribution last Monday at
Chicago and looks to build on that on Sunday vs. Detroit. With
Brandon Jackson sidelined against the Bears because of a wrist
injury, Wynn moved into Jackson's 3rd-down role and is expected to
do so again vs. Detroit with Jackson listed as doubtful for
Sunday. "Deshawn Wynn, he hasn't had a lot of opportunities this
year, but when he has, I really like the way he's stepped up,
particularly on special teams," Head Coach Mike McCarthy said.
"He's doing some things he hasn't done a lot of in the past. He
works extremely hard. "Also with the opponent squad, a lot of that
stuff sometimes goes unnoticed. But I think Deshawn Wynn is
clearly an ascending player in our program. He had the one
opportunity in Chicago, and I think he showed what he's capable of
doing."

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.
