  • Seahawks' Phillip Dorsett: Will miss Week 3

    Coach Pete Carroll said Dorsett (foot) needs "a break" and won't play Sunday against the Cowboys, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.

    Carroll also relayed Dorsett's foot didn't respond well to limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday of last week, which may force the Seahawks to make a roster move. It's unclear if Carroll means an IR stint or cutting Dorsett loose entirely, but the wide receiver's sore foot apparently won't dissipate. Look for David Moore and Freddie Swain to continue getting some run alongside starters Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf.

  • Marquise Brown WR | PHI

    Ravens' Marquise Brown: Leads team in receiving Sunday

    Brown caught five of six targets for 42 yards Sunday against the Texans.

    Baltimore went to the air just 24 times Sunday, including just seven times in the second half. Even with the lower volume, Brown led the team in targets, receptions and yards Sunday. Brown has played 81 percent of the team's snaps, a significant uptick from the 60.4 percent he played as a rookie while working his way back from foot surgery. Not only is Brown playing a higher volume of snaps, he's also dominating the Baltimore passing game. He's seeing 113.0 air yards per game and has accounted for 47.3 percent of the Ravens' air yards. His aDOT is 18.8 yards, which is nearly the highest in the league. Brown and the Ravens will face the Chiefs in Week 3.

  • Dolphins' Lynn Bowden: Makes first NFL catch

    Bowden secured his only target for a loss of one yard during Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Bills.

    Bowden was one of nine Dolphins to catch a pass from Ryan Fitzpatrick during the Week 2 loss. The rookie could see his role increase as the season continues, but for now, he's not on the fantasy radar. Bowden, who was drafted by the Raiders as a running back, remains listed as a wide receiver by Miami and has yet to log a single carry.

  • Colts' Parris Campbell: Will miss time

    Coach Frank Reich relayed Monday that Campbell, who suffered MCL and PCL injuries Week 2, is "going to miss some time," Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.

    At this stage, there's not a clear timetable for Campbell's return, and it has yet to be determined if the wideout will require a procedure. That said, it's safe to rule Campbell out for this coming Sunday's game against the Jets. His absence should free up snaps behind top option T.Y. Hilton for rookie Michael Pittman and Zach Pascal, as well as Daurice Fountain and Ashton Dulin to a lesser degree.

  • Cardinals' KeeSean Johnson: Back from COVID-19 list

    The Cardinals activated Johnson from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Johnson is eligible to rejoin the team, and he'll begin preparing for Sunday's game versus the Lions. The 23-year-old wideout averaged 37.8 snaps per game in 2019, but he likely won't garner the same usage right away with DeAndre Hopkins in the picture now. He'll battle with Andy Isabella and Trent Sherfield for reps.

  • DJ Chark WR | ATL

    Jaguars' DJ Chark: Dealing with chest injury

    Chark is listed as a limited participant on Monday's injury report, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Monday's injury report is only an estimation, so Chark's 'limited' designation can be taken with a grain of salt, but it's nonetheless an indication that the third-year pro is managing a chest injury. He appears to have picked up the issue during Sunday's loss to the Titans, in which he had four catches for 84 yards. Chark will have two more opportunities to resume practicing in full before Thursday's game against the Dolphins, when he may face a cornerback group lacking Byron Jones (groin/Achilles).

  • DeVante Parker WR | PHI

    Dolphins' DeVante Parker: Still managing hamstring injury

    Parker (hamstring) is listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

    Parker managed to play through his hamstring issue against the Bills on Sunday, when he hauled in five of eight targets for 53 yards and a score. It looks like the top wideout avoided any serious setbacks, but he will now be facing a shortened week of practices before the Dolphins head to Jacksonville on Thursday. If he's indeed able to go Week 3, a matchup against Jacksonville's exploitable secondary will put Parker in a good position to produce a big fantasy day.

  • Davante Adams WR | LAR

    Packers' Davante Adams: Injury severity downplayed

    Coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that Adams (hamstring) pushed to return to action during the Packers' Week 2 win over the Lions, but the wideout was kept on the sideline due to the Packers' sizable lead, Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Adams exited in the second half of the contest, but it sounds as though he could have re-entered the game if Green Bay's offense had needed him. The star pass-catcher doesn't look to be in serious danger of missing the Packers' upcoming Sunday night matchup against the Saints, but fantasy managers will nonetheless want to track his activity in practice as the week rolls along.

  • Ashton Dulin WR | IND

    Colts' Ashton Dulin: Has one reception

    Dulin had one reception for six yards on his lone target in Sunday's win over the Vikings.

    Dulin played six snaps on offense after playing only special teams last week. With Parris Campbell likely out several weeks with a knee injury, Dulin will get some snaps on offense. However, don't expect him to have a significant role, as his value is mostly on special teams.

  • Zach Pascal WR | NYG

    Colts' Zach Pascal: Could be set for larger role

    Pascal had three receptions for 19 yards, including a two-yard touchdown, on four targets in Sunday's 28-11 win over the Vikings

    Pascal played on 59 of the offense's 73 snaps as he was pressed into a larger role after Parris Campbell was hurt. With Campbell set to miss significant time with a knee injury, Pascal and Michael Pittman will serve as the No. 2 and 3 receivers with an uncertain mix who will stay on the field in two-receiver sets.
