Beanie Wells vague about extent of knee surgery

May 23, 2012

Cardinals RB Beanie Wells has been working out on the side with an athletic trainer and does his regular rehabilitation. When asked if his knee surgery included the meniscus he replied, "Naw, not really meniscus. It was a little more complicated."

Asked later if he had microfracture surgery, Wells smiled as he walked into the locker room.

His agent, Sean Howard, told ESPN that the surgery was "a clean-out procedure" and said Wells did not undergo microfracture surgery or any other procedure requiring an extended recovery period.

Fantasy Impact:

We're not very high on Wells at the moment -- we have him ranked #30 in standard scoring formats. Not only is the knee a concern, but he's also feeling pressure from second-year man Ryan Williams, who is working his way back from his own knee injury.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Adam Schefter

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.
