  • NYG Wide Receiver #17
    Robinson has been out since last season with a torn ACL. The Giants slot receiver will finally make his second-year debut on Thursday Night Football against the 49ers. Robinson caught 23 passes for 227 yards as a rookie prior to his injury and while he won’t carry fantasy relevancy immediately, he could develop into a flex play later in the season.
  • MIN Running Back #3
    Akers heads to Minnesota, where he will compete with Alexander Mattison for touches. He recently was put in trade talks by the Rams after he was a healthy scratch for Week 2. Akers has seemingly been halfway out of Los Angeles since last season and now the Rams officially move on to Kyren Williams. The Vikings add Akers hoping to electrify a run game to supplement a top-tier passing game.
  • MIA Wide Receiver #10
    Hill did not show a major indication of injury Week 2 against the Patriots, implying that this is more of a precautionary measure. Fellow WR Jaylen Waddle missed practice due to concussion, meaning Hill has a chance to see increased targets for Week 3. For now, Hill’s ankle is worth monitoring, but he still seems on track to play in Week 3 against the Broncos.
  • LAC Linebacker #97
    Bosa practiced once last week before being listed as questionable. He ultimately played through the hamstring issue and totaled two sacks plus two TFLs. The downside is that he was on the field for just 19 snaps. Even when limited, Bosa is elite, but it will be impossible for him to sustain that kind of production on such a limited role. Expect the Chargers to slowly ramp up his reps over the next few weeks in an effort to prevent his hamstring issue from worsening.
  • LAC Wide Receiver #81
    The ankle issue is new for Williams, but the full practice suggests it isn’t noteworthy. After a slow Week 1, Williams went for 83 yards on eight catches in Week 2. He will look to improve again in a likely shootout with the Vikings on Sunday.
  • HOU Quarterback #7
    Stroud was listed as questionable because of the injury to his right shoulder last week. He ultimately played through the issue and put together a strong showing. The rookie tossed for 384 yards and a pair of touchdowns in a loss to the Colts. His shoulder injury doesn’t appear to be serious, though it could limit his practice reps for a few more weeks.
  • TEN Wide Receiver #10
    Hopkins entered Sunday listed as questionable because of an ankle issue. He played through the injury despite not practicing once. A full session to open the week is a good sign for his availability and effectiveness in Week 3. Hopkins caught only four passes for 40 yards in Week 2 and will look to rebound versus the Browns.
  • NO Running Back #32
    Jones Jr. was elevated from the practice squad before Sunday’s game to replace an injured Kendre Miller this week. With Jamaal Williams now injured, Jones Jr. will get his shot on the active roster even with Miller healthy. While many fantasy managers are excited about the prospect of Miller getting more work, Jones Jr. has been with the Saints longer and looked good on Sunday, particularly in pass protection. The two could split work on Sunday before Alvin Kamara returns to take over the backfield in Week 4.
  • TEN Running Back #22
    Henry rushed 25 times and caught three passes in Week 2, so it doesn’t appear as if his toe was bothering him on Sunday. In all likelihood, this is nothing more than maintenance for the age-29 running back. Henry should have no issues playing through the toe injury in Week 3 against the Browns.
  • Quarterback #14
    Bears released QB Nathan Peterman.
    Peterman had beaten out undrafted rookie Tyson Bagent to start the season, but it now appears that Bagent will operate as Justin Fields’ back-up. Peterman has thrown four touchdown passes and 13 interceptions on 160 career passes, but has been on an NFL roster for five straight seasons since being drafted in the 5th round by the Bills in 2017.
