  • MIA Running Back #28
    Achane was an impactful rusher and route-runner in Sunday’s win over the Jaguars, but came away banged-up. He has now been listed as a non-participant for the second straight day due to an ankle injury, just ahead of the Dolphins’ Week 2 Thursday matchup against the Bills. Raheem Mostert (chest) was also held out of practice. Rookie RB Jaylen Wright is next man up, but told Dolphins beat reporter David Furones that he will “still expect them to play.” Wednesday will paint a clearer picture of how ready Achane and Mostert will be to play on a short turnaround. In case they do not go, Wright has RB2 upside while Jeff Wilson will see some touches as well.
  • SF Running Back #23
    This is interesting news especially on the heels of 49ers’ running back Jordan Mason saying he knew he was starting Friday (for Monday Night Football). It has already been reported that McCaffrey could very well miss Week 2 against the Vikings so knowing he could’ve potentially played is puzzling. This is slowly becoming a saga for the consensus top pick in fantasy drafts this season. With Mason set to get another start and no real timetable on CMC’s return, fantasy managers can only sit back and wait.
  • PIT Running Back #30
    He wouldn’t go as far as to say Warren was fully healthy, noting it would be a slippery slope to do so. Warren’s reps were seemingly limited in Week 1 as he totaled just four touches, two carries and two caches. Meanwhile, Arthur Smith alumni Cordarrelle Patterson ran the rock four times. Warren could be an exciting fantasy RB2 when up to full speed, but it’s impossible to count on that for Week 2. He will rank as an RB4 until his workload increases.
  • PIT Quarterback #2
    Tomlin also told reporters the team’s depth chart is unchanged, meaning Russell Wilson is still the starter when healthy. However, opening by saying the team is preparing for Fields suggests Wilson will miss Week 2 as well. He was forced to miss Week 1 with a lingering calf issue, giving Fields the start. Fields didn’t get a touchdown on the board versus Atlanta but did lead six drives that ended in field goals. Those 18 points were enough to topple the hapless Falcons. He also ran 14 times for 57 yards. Fields will be a high-end QB2 for his Week 2 matchup with the Broncos.
  • MIN Defensive Tackle #97
    Per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the deal is worth “up to” $19 million with over $13 million guaranteed. Phillips was set to hit free agency next offseason but is now under contract for two more years. He started all 34 regular season games for the Vikings over the past two seasons and tallied 4.5 sacks plus five TFLs during that stretch. He came away from Week 1 with a sack and a TFL, setting him up for a potential career year.
  • DAL Tight End #87
    Ferguson suffered an MCL sprain in Week 1 and was initially expected to miss some time. The reports have since gotten more optimistic, including that of Jerry Jones. Fantasy managers should still have a contingency plan for Ferguson, but he appears to have a legitimate shot at suiting up this week despite the injury scare. If he can’t go, backup Luke Schoonmaker would be in line to start.
  • SF Running Back #23
    Schefter said on Monday Night Countdown that McCaffrey is dealing with a calf and an Achilles issue that could keep him sidelined for Week 2. CMC was a last-second scratch Monday night against the Jets, leaving Jordan Mason to run roughshod over New York’s defense to the tune of 147 yards and a touchdown. It appears McCaffrey’s injury is far more serious than first thought. Mason will be a top-12 running back option until CMC can return.
  • ATL Quarterback #18
    Morris said that Cousins was just knocking off the rust in his nightmarish Atlanta debut. Cousins threw for 155 yards, one touchdown, and two picks in the Falcons’ Week 1 loss to Pittsburgh. The veteran quarterback was playing in his first game back from the torn Achilles tendon he suffered in Week 8 of the 2023 season. Film watchers and casual fans alike were quick to note his inability to drive off his plant foot and put velocity on the football. Morris may be right and Cousins is just getting back into the swing of things, but this is a situation to monitor going forward. Should Cousins not regain his form, No. 8 overall pick Michael Penix Jr. is waiting in the wings.
  • SF Wide Receiver #1
    Samuel was clearly the focal point of the offense in the first half before the team rode former undrafted free agent running back Jordan Mason to a comfortable victory. His nine targets and eight carries combined for 17 total opportunities on a night no other pass-catcher saw more than five targets. Samuel will remain an integral piece of the offense moving forward, particularly in games played without Christian McCaffrey. Start Samuel with confidence for the remainder of the season.
  • SF Running Back #24
    Mason was largely bottled up in the first quarter before erupting the rest of the way, going into the half with almost 90 yards on the ground alone. He would continue to be the key cog for the offense in the second half as the 49ers pulled away from the Jets. It’s not difficult to look good in a Kyle Shanahan offense, but Mason indeed looked competent with the opportunity. He is sure to be a priority add off waivers heading into Week 2 considering Christian McCaffrey’s calf and Achilles issues remain a hinderance.
