Titans Beat: Bishop Sankey has been the team's 'most impressive' running back

Aug 07, 2015

Jim Wyatt of the Titans:

Bishop Sankey has been the team’s most impressive running back so far in training camp, and I thought he had a really good day on Thursday. Sankey busted through the line on several nice runs, and into the secondary. Sankey, a second round pick last season, has put on roughly 6-7 pound since last year, and the extra weight should make him a stronger and more durable runner this fall. He’s shown better instincts in camp this summer as well.

Fantasy Impact:

Sankey qualifies as a post-hype sleeper. This is his first full offseason and while his rookie year was a disappointment, he showed flashes of what convinced the Titans to make him the first running back off the board in last year's draft. Given his 8th/9th round ADP, he's a good target for the "wait on RB" crowd.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift, WR Keenan Allen both Questionable for Week 12

D'Andre Swift is questionable to play Vikings with a groin injury, though he was limited Thursday and a full participant on Friday.

Keenan Allen is questionable with an ankle injury. He was limited on Friday, his first day on the participation report.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze

Fantasy Impact:

Separate reports called Swift "very likely" to play, but this is seemingly a new issue for Allen.

If Keenan were to miss Week 12, it would boost the floor of all pass-catchers, namely Moore, Oduzne, and Cole Kmet. Moore + Odunze would sneak closer to WR2 territory than their low-end WR3 designations they have with a healthy Allen.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco officially Out for Week 12

Charles Omenihu (knee) and Isiah Pacheco (ankle) won’t play on Sunday, per Coach Reid.

“Just taking it day-by-day,” Reid added.

Related Players: Samaje Perine

Fantasy Impact:

It was later reported that Pacheco was "healthy enough" but they're hoping to hold him back one more game with a short week coming up. This makes Hunt a volume-based RB2 in Week 12.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb returns to Friday practice

CeeDee Lamb practiced today, per Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy. That’s a good sign.

Lamb (back/foot) was limited in a walkthrough on Wednesday and missed practice on Thursday.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks, Ryan Flournoy

Fantasy Impact:

Obviously good news for the Cowboys' potential in rolling out an NFL offense in Week 12. The floor is capped for Lamb but we should expect a ton of action funneling his way against the Commanders, which puts him on the WR1/2 fringe.
