With the addition of sixth-round pick Zach Mettenberger...

May 26, 2014

With the addition of sixth-round pick Zach Mettenberger, however, Titans QB Jake Locker now has another guy aiming to eventually unseat him. Let's keep it real here: Mettenberger is not going to challenge Locker for the starting spot at the start of the 2014 season. The Titans want Locker to win the job going away in training camp, and he'll be given every opportunity to do so. Still, Locker can't give coaches any reason to doubt themselves. Keep in mind, back-up Charlie Whitehurst was brought to town because new coach Ken Whisenhunt is a big fan. Locker will still be slow-going during the upcoming OTAs as he continues to work his way back from Lisfranc surgery. When training camp begins, the Titans think he'll be able to hit the ground running.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

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.
