Panthers insider Darin Gantt suggested on Twitter that Brandon LaFell is the heavy favorite for the team’s No. 2 receiver job.

“I didn’t realize it was that much of a question,” wrote Gantt. There has been speculation that David Gettis would be in the mix, but he’s a poor bet coming off ACL surgery and has no playing experience in second-year OC Rob Chudzinski’s system. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported in April that many inside the Panthers’ organization believe LaFell is “poised for a breakout” in 2012.

Carlton Davis (knee) will not play in Week 10 against the Lions.

The Pats are traveling to Germany to take on the Lions. Davis was among several players who presumably didn’t make the trip overseas and were ruled out today. Davis has two pass breakups and 22 combined tackles across five appearances this season.

Ben Brown (knee) will not play in Week 10 against the Lions.

Brown recently moved to left guard to fill that hole in the Pats’ lineup. He’s now out for Week 10 and Walter Rouse, his backup, is in the league’s concussion protocol. New England could be severely undermanned in the trenches for their matchup versus Detroit.

Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

Stevenson is expected to miss some time because of the knee issue. With their bye next week, it makes sense for the Pats to hold him out on Sunday and give him an extra week of rest. With TreVeyon Henderson already ruled out, Corey Kiner is the next man up in this backfield. As the only game in town for touches, he will push for an RB2 ranking this week.

TreVeyon Henderson (illness) will not play in Week 10 against the Lions.

Henderson is dealing with an unexpected medical emergency right now. We would imagine he did not travel to Germany with the team. It’s unclear when he will return. With Rhamondre Stevenson also expected to miss Week 10, Corey Kiner is in line to see the bulk of the team’s backfield touches this week.

A.J. Brown (knee/ankle) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

Brown traveled to Germany with the team and is already practicing to start the week, giving him a shot at suiting up on Sunday morning. Given his lengthy history of knee issues, it still wouldn’t surprise us if he gets another week off. Brown would be in line for a strong workload and WR2 fantasy numbers if active. Fantasy managers will want to monitor this situation throughout the week.

Marvin Harrison (hamstring) was limited on Wednesday.

Harrison is tentatively on track to play in Week 10 against the Browns, but hamstring strains can be tough for wide receivers to immediately bounce back from, and we do not know whether the injury occurred today or last Sunday. Harrison’s practice participation tomorrow will tell us more. Stay tuned.

Woody Marks (knee) was limited on Wednesday.

Marks should be good to go for the Texans’ Week 10 game against the Browns, though this backfield is awfully banged up. Marks totaled 18 carries and four targets last week, and should again handle a sizable workload this week. Unfortunately, he has not proven to be an efficient player and may need to score a touchdown to return RB2 value.

Tank Dell (hand/shoulder) was limited on Wednesday.

The Texans’ diminutive wide receiver led the team with nine targets last week, and evidently got a little banged up in the process. Dell’s early-week participation puts him on track to face the Browns this weekend though. He is a FLEX starter, assuming he is good to go.

Denzel Boston (toe) did not practice on Wednesday.

Boston continues to pick up lower-leg injuries, but last week’s calf issue did not slow him down. The Browns have begun varying Boston’s usage, no longer limiting him to high-variance downfield work. Adding short-to-intermediate opportunities only enhances his outlook. If he can play this weekend, he will be a WR3/FLEX.

Harold Fannin

CLE Tight End #44

Harold Fannin (groin) was limited on Wednesday.

Fannin played through the groin injury last week, catching two passes for 42 yards and one touchdown. All of his production came in overtime, so it is possible that the team was being mindful of his recurring issue. Regardless, Fannin’s talent keeps him firmly in the TE1 ranks every week. He is firmly on track to face the Texans this weekend.
