JAX: WR Dillard has the drops

Aug 12, 2009

Wide receiver Jarett Dillard, drafted by the Jaguars because he was noted for having good hands, has had trouble catching the ball during training camp.

But Dillard thinks it's only a matter of time before he gets in a groove. He said he's been concentrating on getting open and running routes instead of thinking about catching the ball.

"Yeah, it's frustrating, but I'm not going to let it get me down," Dillard said.

He said that when he had drops in camp or in pregame warmups in college, he still tended to play well in the games.

"I'm not worried about the drops I've had. I'm very, very confident in my hands," Dillard said.

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.
