Texans WR Andre Johnson (shin) missed practice again Thursday. He played through the shin injury last week, so we'd expect him to do so again in a very nice matchup with the Rams. It doesn't sound like he's close to 100 percent, which is why we are a bit low on him this week.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes underwent successful surgery Monday night in Dallas to repair the tear in his left ACL, the team announced.

The surgery was performed by Dr. Dan Cooper, the Dallas Cowboys' head team physician. A league source told ESPN that Dr. Cooper also repaired the torn LCL in Mahomes' left knee, confirming a report by NFL Network.

Fantasy Impact:

According to the Chiefs and the story, Mahomes "will begin his rehab process immediately." Mahomes was injured with less than two minutes remaining in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Chargers. The story went on to say the typical recovery for such an injury is about nine months, meaning Mahomes will miss the team's offseason program, and his availability for the start of next season is in question. The 2026 NFL season opener is Sept. 10, the story said.

While the story is not specific, it could mean Tuten will miss the rest of the regular season, or at least the fantasy playoffs. Etienne looks locked in as the team's No. 1 back, and Allen appears to be in line for more work as his backup.

Seahawks K Jason Myers on pace to break season field goal record

Seahawks kicker Jason Myers made six field goals, including the 56-yard game-winner with 18 seconds remaining, in Sunday’s 18-16 win over the Colts. And he’s now on pace to kick more field goals in a season than any kicker, ever.

The all-time record for field goals in a season is 44, set by David Akers of the 49ers in 2011. Myers had made 37 field goals so far this season, putting him on pace to finish the season with 45.

Fantasy Impact:

Overall, Myers is 37-for-42 on field goals this season, a success rate of 88.1 percent, with a long field goal of 57 yards. He’s also 42-for-42 on extra points, the story said. The story also talked about how the Seahawks would rather be scoring touchdowns, but if Myers is your fantasy kicker, he's likely been helping you win games.
