    Broncos RB RJ Harvey (hamstring) practiced in full on Thursday.

    Harvey is on track to return in Week 3 against the Rams after sitting out the Broncos’ Week 2 game against the Jaguars. With RB Jonah Coleman (ankle) ailing, Harvey could take on a slightly larger-than-normal workload, though not enough to treat him as anything higher than a FLEX option.
Will Aikman work for Jones and the Cowboys?
Mike Florio weighs in on recent reports that Troy Aikman has extended an olive branch to Jerry Jones. How does this affect Aikman's relationships with ESPN and the Miami Dolphins?

    Coleman can return to practice this week and the team now has 21 days to bring him off injured reserve. He could be back on the field as soon as Sunday. With the Broncos’ offense struggling and two backs already seeing work in the backfield, it’s hard to imagine Coleman having much fantasy value in his first game back. He’s worth stashing in deeper leagues, but it might be a while before fantasy managers want him in their lineups.

    The fact that the 31 yards through the air led the team in receiving is a comment on the state of an offense that gained only 168 yards of total offense against the defending Super Bowl Champions. Even so, a relentlessly aggressive defense willed the team to victory behind a consistently positive game script, which allowed J.K. Dobbins to handily lead the backfield in opportunities. Harvey remains a matchup-dependent fantasy option best utilized in trailing game environments, which is unlikely to be the case when the Broncos face the struggling Cardinals in Week 7.
  • DEN Running Back #12
    Harvey was a non-factor in this one, and a week after his big receiving game, he was held without a catch with just one target. The second-year tailback was clearly the backup to JK Dobbins, and was unable to make the most of his limited opportunities. He’s off the radar for Week 6 versus the Seahawks on Thursday.
  • DEN Running Back #27
    Dobbins, as usual, led the Denver backfield in carries but lost out to RJ Harvey on pass routes and targets. In fact, Harvey led the Broncos with ten catches on ten targets in a check-down heavy game plan for Bo Nix and OC Davis Webb. Dobbins has been touchdown-reliant as the Broncos’ lead back, and sensitive to game script, as we saw in Week 4. Dobbins can be used as a flex next week against a vulnerable Chargers run defense.
  • DEN Running Back #12
    Playing against a 49ers defense allowing the league’s highest target share to running backs, Harvey led the Broncos in targets and receptions — thanks in part to negative game script that forced Denver to go pass heavy in the second half. It was a nice little PPR cheat code outing for Harvey, who now has 20 receptions in three games this year. JK Dobbins, meanwhile, led the Denver backfield with 11 rushes in Week 4. Harvey could be a PPR flex play next week against the Chargers.
  • DEN Running Back #27
    RJ Harvey was checked for a concussion in Week 3 and is not on the injury report today, meaning both backs are good to go for Week 4. Dobbins saw 17 carries versus the Rams compared to just two for Harvey, though the latter caught six passes. Dobbins caught one pass. The rushing advantage will keep Dobbins in the RB3 mix for Week 4.
  • DEN Running Back #12
    Harvey took an awkward tackle and appeared to stumble following the play. He was removed during the commercial break and taken to the locker room to be evaluated for a concussion. Harvey gained six yards on two carries prior to departing, adding 39 yards on five receptions, but would return for the fourth quarter to add two additional yards on one additional catch. Harvey continues to add value through the air but could struggle to return value better than RB3 in fantasy circles given the current struggles of the offense. He’ll be an RB3 against the 49ers in Week 4.
  • DEN Running Back #12
    He’ll hold the receiving end of Denver’s RB tandem in Week 3 against the Broncos, giving him fringe RB2 status against a tough defense. We’d probably rather start Harvey than committee mate J.K. Dobbins this week with Jonah Coleman (ankle) out.
  • DEN Running Back #12
    Harvey strained his hamstring in Week 1 and logged two limited sessions in Week 2 practices before being declared inactive on game day. His continued limited practice participation puts him on track to backup starting RB J.K. Dobbins (hamstring), who is also rehabbing after experiencing cramps in Week 2. RB3 Jonah Coleman (ankle) is currently sidelined.
  • DEN Running Back #27
    Hamstring cramps forced Dobbins out of the Broncos’ Week 2 game against the Jaguars. Follow-up reports on the issue have been positive, and it sounds like he has a real chance to play in Week 3 against the Rams, potentially as the leader of a banged-up committee. Keep an eye on his practice participation this week.

    Cowboys ruled out KaVontae Turpin (ribs) for Week 7 against the Eagles.

    Turpin’s absence will be felt most on special teams, with the team now forced to find a replacement on punt and kick returns. Otherwise, there is almost zero fantasy impact as the team’s WR4.

    Falcons activated A.J. Terrell (groin) from injured reserve.

    The Falcons have been attackable on the perimeter while playing most of the season without Terrell. Fellow cornerback C.J. Henderson is listed questionable for Week 7, but the reintegration of Terrell provides a much more difficult matchup for the injury-riddled 49ers.

    Broncos activated Jonah Coleman (ankle) from injured reserve.

    Coleman missed the minimum four games as he tended to an ankle injury suffered in Week 2. He led the team in snaps in that contest and could return to the primary rushing role considering the inefficient play of J.K. Dobbins in his absence, making him worthy of a start in fantasy circles in a plus matchup against the Cardinals in his first game back.

    Ravens ruled out Lamar Jackson (ankle) for Week 7 against the Bengals.

    Tyler Huntley will draw the start under center for the third straight game as Jackson continues to rehab a high-ankle sprain. Jackson reportedly took most of the first-team reps at practice Friday and was close to being able to play in Week 7, with the team ultimately siding with caution for their franchise quarterback. The Ravens enter a 15-game stretch in which they play three games starting in Week 8, which could have influenced their decision to hold Jackson out one more game. Expect him back for Week 8 against the Bills. His absence greatly influences the upside of the remaining skill position players considering Declan Doyle has halved his usage of play action and completely eliminated RPO with Huntley under center.

    Dallas Goedert (knee) was removed from the injury report Saturday and will play against the Cowboys in Week 7.

    Goedert reportedly aggravated his previous knee injury but got back on the practice field for a full session Saturday before being removed from the injury report. He could be stepping into a massive target share with both DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks ruled out. Fantasy managers can start him as an upside TE1 in a great matchup against the Cowboys in Week 7.

    Saquon Barkley (hamstring) is questionable for Week 7 against the Cowboys.

    Although getting in a full practice Saturday, the Eagles head into Monday’s game against the Cowboys with Barkley listed as questionable following a two-game absence. Fantasy managers have a decision considering the Eagles play in Week 7’s final game on Monday Night Football, with no clear fall back options should he be unable to play. It would seem prudent to make alternate plans at the position.

    Eagles ruled out DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) for Week 7 against the Cowboys.

    The Eagles will be without their top two receivers but got good news Saturday with the removal of Dallas Goedert from the injury report. Saquon Barkley is listed as questionable and appears to be a true game-time decision. Considering the low involvement of the backfield in the pass game this season, Goedert stands to benefit the most from the absences at wide receiver. He can be started as an upside TE1 in a solid on-paper matchup against the Cowboys.

    ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Vikings plan to activate Jordan Mason (thumb) from injured reserve.

    Mason came into the season as the presumed lead back in a timeshare with Aaron Jones, the latter of whom has performed as a true workhorse in Mason’s absence. Although it could take a week or two for Mason to fully regain the lead back role, his presence significantly mutes the potential of Jones. Expect a near-even split when the Vikings take on the Colts in Week 7.

    Browns activated RB Dylan Sampson (knee) from injured reserve.

    Sampson was limited in practice throughout the week and listed as questionable for Week 7 against the Titans. Now that he’s officially been activated from injured reserve, he’s likely to be Cleveland’s change-of-pace back behind Quinshon Judkins this week. Sampson is worth stashing on fantasy benches, but is truly just a desperation FLEX play coming off a knee injury that’s sidelined him since Week 1.

    ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that several teams believe the Jaguars could trade WR Brian Thomas Jr.

    Appearing on ESPN Saturday morning, Fowler, citing Thomas’ zero catches over the last two weeks, said something has to give in this situation. According to several teams the NFL Insider talked to, Thomas could be traded over the next few weeks. Fowler listed the Chiefs and Steelers as potentially interested teams and was emphatic that there will be suitors for Thomas. If you have Thomas in fantasy, it’s hard to imagine his value getting worse with a change of scenery. The Jaguars would appear content to roll with Parker Washington, Jakobi Meyers and Travis Hunter as their top receivers in the event of a Thomas trade.
