For the first time since 1995, the Colts won't have WR...

Sep 06, 2009

For the first time since 1995, the Colts won't have WR Marvin Harrison to lean on. That's fine. The Harrison of the past season and a half shouldn't be missed. Reggie Wayne is one of the league's premier receivers. His 432 receptions rank No. 4 in the league over the past five seasons. His 6,230 yards are a league high. The pressure is on Anthony Gonzalez to lift his game yet again. No longer is the 2007 first-round draft pick the No. 3 guy. He's No. 2, and will draw more attention than he has in the past. Rookie Austin Collie looks to be a perfect fit as the No. 3 option, whether he lines up split wide or in the slot. Pierre Garcon possesses deep speed and should divvy up playing time with Collie.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
