It would appear that any concerns over Brown’s hamstring injury lingering into the regular season can be laid to rest. The star receiver was not only a full participant in practice, but avoided the injury report altogether, which is a great sign for his Week 1 availability when the Eagles kick off the season against the Cowboys on Thursday night. Brown profiles as a fringe WR1/WR2 against a Cowboys defense that will be without Micah Parsons following his trade to the Packers and may also be sh ...01 September 2025
Dickerson didn’t practice on Monday, but there seems to be some hope that he will still suit up on Thursday night when the Eagles play host to the Cowboys. Dickerson was listed on the team’s official report with a back injury, but had been missing time after undergoing a minor knee procedure in mid-August. It was reported over the weekend that Dickerson was “trending” toward playing in Week 1, so we won’t read too much into Monday’s DNP just yet.01 September 2025
The day started with Diggs’ Week 1 availability being “up in the air.” Later, the veteran corner said there was a 75-80 percent chance he would suit up. Now, we know that Diggs was a full participant in Monday’s practice, which would seemingly increase his chances of playing in the season-opener. Diggs is definitely trending toward a return, and said on Monday he felt good when speaking to the media. It’s too early to say for certain if Diggs will play, but this is an encouraging start ...01 September 2025
The Cowboys open the season on the road against the Eagles on Thursday night. The veteran corner’s status was reported as “up in the air” earlier by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, and that appears to still be the case based on Diggs’ comments. Diggs said earlier that he would be ready to go by Week 4 at the latest, but his practice availability will give us a better look at how he projects for the week.

Jackson was diagnosed with blood clots in June, but has been trending toward being ready for Week 1. The fact that he was able to suit up for a Monday practice suggests he’s still trending in the right direction, and the team said the plan will be to start him in Week 1 against the Texans if all goes well this week. Jackson earned a PFF pass blocking grade of 79.5 last season, allowing just three sacks and 22 pressures on 502 dropbacks. If he is unable to start, D.J. Humphries looks like the m ...01 September 2025
We’re expecting Stafford to continue to be managed through practices, but so far his back injury doesn’t seem like it’ll keep him from setting foot on the field on opening day. Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic said recently she believes the injury is going to need to be managed throughout the season, so Stafford is probably best-approached as a risky QB2 in superflex leagues at this time. For a quarterback who is very bound to the pocket, a first-game test against Will Anderson and Daniell ...01 September 2025
Likely underwent foot surgery on August 1 and hasn’t been on the field since. The fourth-year tight end avoided opening the season on injured reserve, suggesting he will be able to return before Week 4, but he’s far from a lock to play in Week 1 against the Bills. The Ravens don’t have to release their first official practice report until Wednesday, which should give us a better sense of Likely’s availability for Week 1. Even if he is active, he’ll be hard to rely on in fantasy with Ma ...01 September 2025
Johnston’s role in the offense remains murky after the Keenan Allen addition. We suspect that Johnston will be battling the inconsistent Tre’ Harris for snaps and targets outside, but either way this is probably only news for DFS contests at the moment.01 September 2025
We’re in midseason form. Alexander has not practice since August 9th per The Athletic’s Jeff Zrebiec. There’s still plenty of time for him to get cleared this week, but nobody should be surprised if Alexander misses Week 1 after this long of a layoff.01 September 2025
Head coach Raheem Morris said Mooney participated in Monday’s jog through, but still said the veteran receiver will remain day-to-day ahead of the first official practice on Wednesday. Mooney has been dealing with a shoulder injury since July and did log a practice late last week. We’ll see where things stand on Wednesday when the first practice report is released, but it sounds like he’s trending in the right direction ahead of Week 1’s game against the Buccaneers.01 September 2025
Things have been trending in a positive direction for Harris over the last two weeks, but Harbaugh has yet to out-and-out say that he will play in Week 1. Greg Roman said a few weeks ago that Omarion Hampton will split snaps with someone in Week 1 — Harris if he plays, or (likely) Hassan Haskins if Harris sits. We’ll be monitoring Harris’ practice status all week but being cleared for contact is a good sign.01 September 2025
But, he adds, the team might place Watkins on IR to make room for Kendrick Bourne if Bourne ends up signing with the 49ers. It sounds like Watkins has missed his chance to make a fantasy impact piece early in the season either way, but he’s still worth monitoring in dynasty leagues after making a lot of noise early in training camp.01 September 2025
Schefter said that Parsons may need an epidural prior to the game and that the star rusher has been dealing with an “L4/L5 facet joint sprain” in his back. We don’t really know how much stock to put into this given Parsons said he’s feeling great on Friday — it almost reads like a Cowboys source dumping what they know to make the trade look better because of the details on what the Cowboys wanted Parsons to do. It does sound like perhaps the idea that Parsons’ back injury was pure co ...01 September 2025
Gardner-Johnson went down in early August with a knee injury that was expected to threaten his season, but Gardner-Johnson has been able to rehab it successfully and it thankfully was not as bad as it initially looked. Gardner-Johnson should have a decent role in Houston this year, though Jalen Pitre is probably the IDP Texans back-seven player you want to roster.01 September 2025
The Niners don’t need to release an official practice report until Wednesday, but a Monday return in any capacity is good news for Jennings, who has been dealing with a calf injury since late July. General manager John Lynch said last week that the team is “hopeful” Jennings could return for Week 1 against the Seahawks, but didn’t sound overly optimistic. Jennings’ status will be one to monitor on Wednesday for when the first practice report is released.01 September 2025
The question asked was if Hunter would start on both sides of the ball. Coen emphasized that they’re working through it and he “missed a lot of time” with his upper body injury. This isn’t necessarily a fantasy football fire alarm, but it does sound like Hunter’s preseason injury should have us with slightly lowered expectations for Week 1.01 September 2025
It’s not exactly a guarantee that Otton will avoid missing this week’s game against the Falcons — Todd Bowles said he’d be “out for a little bit” last week — but it is a step in the right direction. The injury reports starting Wednesday will tell the tale of Otton’s Week 1 status better than this report does. Sean Tucker also returned to practice per Stroud.01 September 2025
Nothing has been decided yet. The teams have not put up an injury report yet, but Guyton seems to have a chance to shake his injury off ahead of the 4-6 week timeline. Guyton went down with what was feared to be a torn ACL but wound up as “merely” a bone fracture in his knee in late July and has not participated in the preseason.01 September 2025
This doesn’t come as much of a surprise after the team said last week that the star receiver “looks great” for the team’s season opener. Hill was reportedly participating in Monday’s practice, but we’ll have a better sense of his availability when the first practice report is released on Wednesday. Assuming he’s active, Hill should profile as a fringe WR1/WR2 against a Colts secondary that allowed the seventh-most passing yards per game last season.01 September 2025
Coker has already been placed on injured reserve and will miss at least the first four games of the season. However, Canales’ most recent comments suggest the second-year receiver could be looking at an absence that extends beyond the four-game minimum. The Panthers re-signed Hunter Renfrow late last week, giving them an easy replacement for Coker in the slot, but we wouldn’t expect Renfrow to have much fantasy upside at this time. We will provide any additional updates on Coker as they come ...
