Oct 20, 2011

On pass plays where Eagles TE Brent Celek is on the field, he's going out into his pass routes 70 percent of the time and staying in to block 30 percent of the time - more than last year, and much more than 2009.

Celek's targets are down also. He averaged 7 targets per game in 2009; 5.2 in 2010; and 4.8 so far in 2011. DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, Jason Avant and LeSean McCoy have all been targeted more than Celek.

Fantasy Impact:

Celek won't be a good fantasy option until the Eagles O-line can prove that it can protect Michael Vick without TE help.

Fantasy Impact:

Fantastic news for fantasy managers hanging on to Mike Evans: he should be considered a WR1 option immediately.

49ers TE George Kittle "good to go" for Week 12

KNBR

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift misses Wednesday practice

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
