Caleb Douglas (ankle) limited, day-to-day in W7

Davis and both of the Patriots’ top perimeter backups, CB Channing Canada (hamstring) and CB Karon Prunty (hamstring) are practicing in full this week. This is very good news. The trio has been sidelined for some time, weakening the Patriots’ secondary.

A DNP to open the week would normally be concerning, but Dan Campbell told reporters earlier today that he was going to get a lot of players “off their feet” during today’s practice. Gibbs appeared to injure his leg while awkwardly sliding to the ground on his final carry of Week 7. The fact that he isn’t listed with a leg injury on today’s report is also a good sign. Sione Vaki is the next man up if Gibbs can’t play this week, but we aren’t overly concerned quite yet. Tomorrow’s injury report will be more telling.

Wright is a mediocre bench stash at this point, with Ollie Gordon playing well in the lead role. Wright does not need to be rostered in 12-team formats, though he may be able to slightly improve his efficiency if his health continues to improve.

Washington has cooled off in recent weeks. Although his knee injury is unlikely to keep him out of the Dolphins’ Week 8 matchup against the Patriots, he is barely a WR5 in fantasy football. Washington does not need to be rostered in 12-team leagues.

The Dolphins’ tight end finally had a decent game, only to tweak an ankle along the way. He should be fine for Week 8 against the Patriots, but he is barely in the TE2 ranks.

Seattle cut the former third-round pick earlier this week after trading for Quenton Nelson. Haynes made five starts at right guard this year. Ravens rookie guard Vega Ioane is the latest in a long line of banged-up interior linemen for Baltimore. Haynes will give the team some extra depth.

Gainwell suffered the hip injury while logging a season-high 14 rush attempts in Week 7. The Bucs blew out the Panthers and racked up 49 carries as a team. Bucky Irving would be in line for more work on passing downs if Gainwell is out for Week 8. Sean Tucker could also see an uptick in snaps, though his normal role has very little overlap with what Gainwell does. Per usual, Irving looks like a high-end RB2 this week.

While we are happy to see Willis practicing in full, we are slightly unhappy to see that he has a new injury. The Dolphins’ quarterback has already dealt with toe and right thumb injuries this season. Willis remains a viable QB2 starter against the Patriots, but this is worth monitoring.

Egbuka logged one limited practice on Friday last week but was ruled out shortly after. It looks like he is trending in the right direction for Week 8, but the Bucs’ next two injury reports will be more revealing. Assuming all goes well, Egbuka should be back in the WR2 ranks with Baker Mayfield under center and playing well in Tampa Bay’s Week 7 demolition of the Panthers.

The rest aspect suggests Chase’s ankle injury can effectively be treated as a non-issue, but NFL teams have played games with the injury report at times this season, so we are cataloguing it here to be safe. Assuming Chase resumes practicing tomorrow, he can be started as an elite WR1, as usual, in Week 8 against the Titans.
