Week 6 Essential NFL Practice News & Notes for Wednesday

Oct 14, 2015

Jaguars QB Blake Bortles (shoulder) practiced fully Wednesday. It appears Bortles will play through the shoulder sprain. He’s not terribly accurate to begin with, so we wonder how this will affect his play. He’s the #6 fantasy QB through five weeks.

Colts QB Andrew Luck (right shoulder) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Luck is expected to play in Week 6. He’s been pretty shaky this season, but should produce QB1 numbers against the Patriots, provided he stays healthy.

Broncos QB Peyton Manning (not injury related) did not practice Wednesday. The Broncos routinely rest Manning on Wednesdays.

Browns QB Johnny Manziel (right elbow) practiced fully Wednesday.

Browns QB Josh McCown (ankle) took limited practice reps Wednesday. McCown will be fine for a tough matchup with the Broncos.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger (knee) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Roethlisberger wants to play against his old coach, Bruce Arians, in Week 6, but it’s no sure thing. His return would be a big boost for the entire offense, which has struggled with Michael Vick under center.
