Martellus Bennett limping

Aug 10, 2009

Cowboys 2nd-year TE Martellus Bennett sat out the last dozen or so team plays Monday morning after apparently injuring his knee.

According to those who know, it is not considered serious and Bennett said, "nothing" was wrong after he left the field. That came after a longer than normal talk post-practice with Wade Phillips and Jerry Jones. He was favoring his leg as he walked off and this might have been the first time he chose not to speak with reporters. Ever.

Add that to Felix Jones' stiff toe, and the Cowboys' offense would look a lot different if those two were to miss any time during the regular season. As he walked off the field, Felix Jones said he was fine and that he would be at the afternoon practice.

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.
