Jul 27, 2009

Eagles HC Andy Reid took it easy on the Birds on day one of camp. He held a "swift" 75-minute morning practice.
Donovan Mcnabb was getting most of the reps early on the first day, reported KYW 1060.
D-Mac made sure to have some fun also. He admittedly watched the new Terrell Owens reality show and T.O.'s former QB had some advice on improvements -- "by not having it," McNabb told reporters.
McNabb was getting some early work in to become familiar with new targets but an old target's presence was gaining some press.
Todd Pinkston returned to Lehigh this season to impart some knowledge on Eagles wideouts and maybe learn something himself, reported the Morning Call's Eagles Insider.
McNabb’s former WR was back with the team as a coaching intern for wide receivers coach and long-time friend Dave Culley. Let’s just hope that while imparting some knowledge that Pinkston doesn’t teach anyone about alligator arms.

Cowboys hope to get WR Brandin Cooks (knee) back for Week 12

Mike McCarthy said he's hoping Cowboys will get WR Brandin Cooks (knee) back this week.

Fantasy Impact:

Cooper Rush will get the start at QB again against the Commanders in Week 12. CeeDee Lamb led the way with 12 targets vs. the Texans, but it was Luke Schoonmaker, who took over after Jake Ferguson left with a concussion, who had 10 targets which was most behind Lamb. The addition of Cooks should help the Cowboys offense in what is a good matchup against the Commanders defense. For the fantasy world, Rush did end up throwing for 354 yards.

Cowboys will start Cooper Rush at QB in Week 12

Mike McCarthy said Cooper Rush "will be the starter" this week against Washington and a package of plays will be formed for Trey Lance.

Fantasy Impact:

McCarthy came out and said he regrets not giving Lance a chance to run the offense in the loss to the Texans on Monday Night, but even after that the team is going forward with Rush in Week 12 against the Commanders. One would have to assume Rush gets the start the following week as well, which is a short week and a game on Thanksgiving Day game against the Giants.

49ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) 'close' to playing in Week 11

Shanahan said George Kittle was “close” to playing against Seattle and should be able to practice Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

It's at least a good sign Kittle is expected to practice Wednesday. The hope is he will be ready to go in Week 12. The 49ers play at the Packers, and it's in the later Sunday window so owners will certainly want to pay attention to what kind of work Kittle can get in this week at practice.
