The Oakland Raiders lost league-leading rusher Darren McFadden to a sprained right foot two carries into Sunday’s 28-0 loss to Kansas City, but it may not be a long-term problem.

Considering McFadden will have two weeks off to recover—the Raiders have their bye this week—he likely will be available for their next game, Nov. 6 game against Denver.

McFadden received treatment in the locker room, had the foot taped and returned to the field. However, coach Hue Jackson opted against putting McFadden back into the game for fear of losing his most potent offensive weapon for the long term.

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

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.
