Tom Brady was spotted flexing his throwing hand during last week's loss to the Jets. It appears an answer has been uncovered.

The middle and ring fingers were taped together today, which was spotted in a photo sent out by the team to promote a Make-A-Wish event at Gillette Stadium. It appeared the event happened after the standard Saturday morning walkthrough.

Brady is listed as probable for tomorrow's game with a right shoulder injury, but there hadn't been any other indication of a finger or hand injury at any other point this week.

Brady was asked about the hand Monday during his appearance on WEEI's Dennis & Callahan.

"I’m like everybody," Brady said. "There’s just bumps and bruises. It happens over the course of the football season. We’ll just get treatment like always and be out there and try to execute as well as I can next week. It’s just part of football."

Fantasy Impact:

Brady is expected to play but the fingers taped together could make things uncomfortable for throwing. It's one thing if Brady had been lighting it up the past few weeks, but as owners know that hasn't been the case. He comes in ranked 11th this week, out of the QB1 range for a ten-team league. It could be a tough matchup against the Dolphins.

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.

Charger RBs Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins listed as limited

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.
