Colts sign top draft pick Donald Brown

Aug 03, 2009

Top draft pick Donald Brown has agreed to terms with the Indianapolis Colts just before the start of training camp.

Team president Bill Polian made the announcement Sunday afternoon, as the team reported to Terre Haute. He did not disclose details of the contract, which is expected to be signed before the Colts open practice Monday.

Brown, a running back from Connecticut, is the last unsigned rookie of the Colts' eight draft picks. Indianapolis announced last week that it had signed all of its other rookies.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

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.
