Sep 22, 2009

Patriots rookie WR Julian Edelman led all players with eight catches for 98 yards in his NFL debut, but the loss to the Jets soured the experience.

Edelman became the starter after Wes Welker was a late scratch because of a knee injury. He earned praise for his performance but addressed what he learned in his first NFL game.

“The pace of the game’s a lot faster,’’ Edelman said. “We’ve got to watch tape, and I’ll learn a lot more then. I know I have a long way to go, so we’ll see.’’

Edelman, who was drafted in the seventh round out of Kent State, where he was a quarterback, said part of what he needs to improve is “looking and seeing what’s out there. As a receiver, you’ve got to be able to look at the coverage, get your stance, right formation, and all that kind of stuff. I’m not where I want to be.’’

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker listed as DNP; RB Zach Carbonnet full

Seahawks listed RB Kenneth Walker III as a Did Not Practice today while RB Zach Charbonnet was upgraded to full practice ahead of Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Fantasy Impact:

Walker is dealing with an ankle injury and as we get closer to Thursday his status really seems to be in doubt. Charbonnet would be the team's lead back and looks to be good to go despite dealing with an elbow injury. He'd once again be a great option if Walker is unable to go.

Gus Edwards is listed as a limited participant due to an ankle injury. Edwards ran 14 times for 68 yards and two touchdowns in last Sunday’s win over the Broncos.

J.K. Dobbins (knee) was also limited in his first appearance on the injury report since being designated for return from injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said if Dobbins is going to play against the Patriots, the Chargers will have to activate him by Friday. It could be a tricky situation depending on each back's status. Owners will want to pay close attention to this situation leading up to game time.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow, WR Tee Higgins listed as limited

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow told reporters on Tuesday that he feels like he’s totally past his right wrist injury, but it still landed him on the team’s injury report.

Burrow was listed as limited due to the wrist and his knee

Wide receiver Tee Higgins (ankle, knee) was listed as limited as well,

Fantasy Impact:

The story said Burrow's injury shouldn’t create much cause for concern about his availability against the Broncos on Saturday since he was listed as limited all of last week before playing without issue in the team’s win over the Browns. Burrow added there are still things he does to help with it but he's pretty much past it. The story added Higgins also played without incident last Sunday after being on the report all week.
