    Jaguars RB LeQuint Allen (soft tissue) will miss the rest of training camp.

    Allen suffered a soft tissue injury during Monday’s practice and the Jaguars announced Tuesday morning that he’ll miss the rest of training camp. It’s unclear if he’ll be ready for the start of the regular season. While Allen doesn’t have standalone fantasy value, he seemed destined for a legitimate role as the primary receiving back in this offense. If Allen misses time in the regular season, it would boost receiving opportunities for Bhayshul Tuten and Chris Rodriguez.

    LeQuint Allen (hip) was also limited. Both Jags played through their injuries in Week 2, so the limited designations in practice are simply maintenance. Meyers led the team in routes last week and found the end zone on one of his two targets. He will be a fantasy WR4 for Week 2.

    Abdullah rotated into the game as the Jaguars’ third running back, showing some burst with 32 yards on four carries. He won’t see enough opportunities to reach fantasy relevancy but will mix in to spell Bhayshul Tuten and Chris Rodriguez. LeQuint Allen was active but coming off a hip injury, seeing just one snap on the day. As Allen gets healthier, Abdullah could see less opportunities, though neither would be fantasy relevant barring a Tuten or Rodriguez injury.

    Rodriguez was the Jaguars’ second running back in the game, but equaled Bhayshul Tuten’s touches on the first drive. He was used both in the red zone and short-yardage situations early on; Rodriguez tied for the lead in backfield snaps in the first half. The game was out of reach in the second half, with Ameer Abdullah taking on garbage time carries and Rodriguez finishing the game second in backfield snaps. Fantasy managers will like the high-leverage utilization but a lack of receiving upside caps Rodriguez’ ceiling. He is firmly in the RB4 range for Week 2 against the Broncos.
  • JAC Running Back #33
    Tuten started the game for the Jaguars, getting the first two carries of the game. His utilization was mixed, tying Chris Rodriguez for snaps in the first half. Tuten was rotated out for early red zone and short-yardage snaps, though he saw some of those opportunities later in the game. He held up well in pass-protection and took a screen pass 22 yards for his first reception. With the game out of hand in the second half, Tuten ultimately saw the highest snaps out of the backfield, tallying 28 on the day. He showed good burst and the ability to fight through contact, but Rodriguez will continue to be a thorn in his side for utilization. Tuten profiles as a high-end RB3 for Week 2 against the Broncos.

    Allen entered the weekend questionable with a hip injury. With some limited practices leading up to gameday, Allen is declared active and should be involved on passing downs for the Jaguars. His potential receiving role dampens Bhayshul Tuten’s upside against the Browns. Jaguars declared QB Quinn Ewers, OL Daniel Faalele, S Jalen Huskey, TE Tanner Koziol, DE Bryan Thomas Jr., and DE Wesley Williams inactive for Week 1 against the Browns.
  • JAC Running Back #5
    Allen was expected to take on an expanded receiving role, in addition to his pass-protection duties, but a hip injury has stalled that plan. If active, he is unlikely to do more than help keep QB Trevor Lawrence upright. If he is inactive, the team could employ a committee approach in addressing his vacated duties.
  • JAC Running Back #5
    Jaguars coach Liam Coen said yesterday that Allen would be a game-time decision for Week 1 against the Browns. If active, he should handle his typical pass-protection duties. If he is inactive, running backs Ameer Abdullah, Chris Rodriguez and Bhayshull Tuten could all take on a little extra work, though projecting the exact usage is challenging.
  • JAC Running Back #5
    As expected, Allen did not practice Wednesday. It’s not that fantasy managers were eager to start Allen this week, but his absence would open up more routes and potential targets for Bhayshul Tuten and Chris Rodriguez, who are listed as co-starters on Jacksonville’s Week 1 depth chart. Both C-Rod and Tuten would be slightly better options if Allen is sidelined this weekend.
  • JAC Running Back #33
    Shipley hedges a bit by noting that there’s a chance that one back simply carries the momentum early in the season forward and never lets up, but ultimately falls on the idea that neither back is likely to hit 1,000 rushing yards in 2026. “I think there is a more likely chance we see both running backs hit 750+ yards than one of them hit 1,000,” Shipley writes. Such a split would probably lean towards Rodriguez at the goal line, making him slightly more fantasy-valuable on a weekly basis barring big plays from Tuten. If this prediction comes true, both backs might have trouble cracking the weekly RB2 ranks.

    Coen talked up Ameer Abdullah as a potential replacement for Allen’s duties in pass protection. He also singled out Chris Rodriguez’s abilities in pass pro. Pass protection duties aren’t a direct source of fantasy value, but it usually means that player will be on the field for the two-minute drill, which can generate plenty of receptions for running backs. Bhayshul Tuten not getting those reps would be a notable ding to his fantasy outlook. Allen himself isn’t on the fantasy radar, healthy or not.

    Cardinals TE Trey McBride (rest/back) did not participate in Wednesday’s practice.

    No need to panic after McBride was seen working off to the side Wednesday; the Cardinals listed him as DNP with a rest/back designation. Despite the back being added to the designation, it does not seem like a serious injury worry with the Cardinals also giving him the “resting player” tag. This reads as a rest day for McBride, he is still good to go for Week 2 against the Seahawks.

    Seahawks S Nick Emmanwori (ankle/hip) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

    Emmanwori is still unable to get in a full practice as he nurses a pesky ankle injury, also adding a hip issue to his practice designation. He will likely need a full practice before he is set to return for the Seahawks. Fellow safety Ty Okada (hamstring) missed practice on Wednesday; both players missed Week 1 and are in jeopardy of missing Week 2 against the Cardinals.

    Seahawks WR Cooper Kupp (back) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

    Kupp popped up on the injury report with a back issue, though he was listed as a limited participant. The veteran 33-year-old may just be having his practice reps managed as he deals with a back ailment. Barring a change, Kupp is still trending to play Week 2 against the Cardinals.

    Seahawks WR Tory Horton (hamstring) was a full participant in Wednesday’s practice.

    Horton missed Week 1, dealing with a hamstring injury from training camp. He now finally gets in a full practice, opening Week 2 with a full participation designation. The Seahawks are preparing for the 23-year-old to return against the Cardinals, though Horton is best left off fantasy rosters with Drew Lock the starting quarterback for now.

    Malik Willis (toe) was a full participant in Wednesday’s practice.

    Willis popped up on the Dolphins’ injury report with a toe injury, though he was a full practice participant. This indicates the issue is minor enough for the 27-year-old to keep practicing at full strength. Note down Willis’ toe issue, but expect him to be back out there for Week 2 against the 49ers.

    Dolphins EDGE Chop Robinson (concussion protocol) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

    Robinson appeared in Week 1 against the Raiders and is now in concussion protocol to open up Week 2. The 23-year-old has a history of concussions, entering the protocol twice last season. Robinson will be thoroughly evaluated before he officially returns, given this is his third head injury over the last calendar year.

    Panthers WR Jalen Coker (ankle) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

    Coker was wearing a boot after rolling his left ankle in the Panthers’ Week 1 loss against the Bears. Head coach Dave Canales told reporters that the team is confident in ramping him up in practice. The 24-year-old got in a limited practice Wednesday, doing an “extended warm up” on the side and getting a “couple of snaps” on things the Panthers are looking for him to execute. Canales added the “hope is to ramp that up a little bit more tomorrow and then cut them loose Friday. So I expect him to play on Sunday.” Coker’s ankle injury is certainly something to keep an eye on, but Canales and the Panthers are confident he will play in Week 2 against the Falcons.

    49ers K Eddy Pineiro (illness) did not participate in Wednesday’s practice.

    Pineiro was a non-participant in practice due to an illness. It’s still early in the week, so the 31-year-old kicker will likely return in time for Week 2 against the Dolphins.

    49ers TE George Kittle (Achilles) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

    Kittle also started out last week as limited, so this seems to be regular practice management for the veteran. He appeared in Week 1 and was targeted five times. Expect Kittle to be back out there for Week 2 against the Dolphins, barring any setbacks.

    49ers listed RB Christian McCaffrey, OT Trent Williams, LB Dre Greenlaw, and EDGE Nick Bosa as resting non-participants for Wednesday’s practice.

    McCaffrey and Williams were listed as DNP simply for rest, while Bosa had a rest/knee designation and Greenlaw had a rest/Achilles designation. This is notable as the 49ers have several key veterans who have dealt with injuries throughout their career and practice reps will be managed for these players, especially coming off a Week 1 in Australia. McCaffrey reportedly dealt with cramps in the 49ers’ Week 1 win over the Rams; though he is not injured, his experiences with Achilles tendinitis will certainly lend to rest days throughout the season. We expect the 49ers to continue to rest veterans in practice throughout the season in an effort to remain healthy.
