Stogner (6'6"/241) joins fellow Oklahoma transfer Spencer Rattler in transferring to the Gamecocks. Stogner wasn’t a huge contributor for the Sooners this season, but must have good enough relationship with Rattler to transfer with him. He was a much bigger part of the Sooner offense in 2020, and will hope to get back to that level in a new location.

Lawrence gave fantasy managers what they needed with a solid box score, but he was not the reason the Jags won this game. Lawrence struggled under pressure, throwing one ugly interception while putting the ball on the ground twice via sack-fumbles. Both were recovered by the Jags. The offense was also a catastrophe in the red zone, though a series of penalties and bizarre play calls are largely to blame there. Down by one with eight seconds left, it looked like the team’s struggles on offense would be too much to overcome. Instead, Ameer Abdullah returned a kickoff 53 yards to set up a walkoff field goal from Cam Little. If the Jags can clean things up after an uncharacteristically sloppy game, Lawrence will remain a mid-range QB1 for Week 6 versus the Texans.

Coming off a pair of quiet weeks, Washington paid off for fantasy managers early with a 51-yard score in the first quarter. It was somehow nowhere close to his best play of the day. Washington scored his second touchdown on a falling, one-handed grab in the end zone from 27 yards out near the end of the game. The grab was reminiscent of Odell Beckham’s famous touchdown catch. Washington remains the most talented and most involved receiver on the Jags. He will be a high-end WR2 versus the Texans next week.

Making a spinning first quarter grab, Concepcion took a high hit from Minkah Fitzpatrick, who was flagged for a personal foul. It was the kind of hit the NFL is trying to legislate out of the game, but it wasn’t necessarily dirty. It was extremely unfortunate, as Concepcion did appear to be briefly out cold. He thankfully made his way to his feet and to the locker room unassisted, but he was ruled out before even undergoing a formal evaluation. He will now be highly questionable for Week 6 against the Ravens. Concepcion’s loss will mean more routes for beleaguered Jerry Jeudy.

Hockenson was slammed into the ground on his first catch of the day. He got up slowly and was immediately checked out by the medical staff. Hockenson was eventually evaluated for a concussion and ruled out. With a bye week on deck for Week 6, Hockenson should be able to return for the team’s next game.

Steen left with the shoulder issue earlier in the game and was listed as questionable to return. Fred Johnson took his spot at right guard for a few drives. While the Eagles are still down several key names due to injury, Steen is no longer among them.

Shipley suffered the foot injury in the second quarter and was initially listed as questionable to return. He will now miss the remainder of the contest. Dameon Pierce is the only other running back on the roster with a touch today. Carson Steele is also active.

Right guard Tyler Steen is questionable to return with a shoulder injury. Philly came into this game without several key players because of injuries. Now they will be without even more players on both sides of the ball.

Harrison went down with a non-contact injury in the third quarter. He rode the cart to the locker room. His day is likely over. Walker Little will take his spot at left tackle.

It was reported earlier in the day that Dowdle was unlikely to suit up due to his ongoing foot injury, so this doesn’t come as a major surprise. We could be looking at a big game for Jaylen Warren against an underperforming Colts defense. With Keenan Allen back for the Colts, the injury to Jamel Dean is a bit of a blow to this Pittsburgh secondary.

Jeanty will play through his foot and ankle injuries against New England. It wouldn’t be surprising if he cedes some backfield work to a healthy and much more explosive Mike Washington, however. Jeanty should be considered a top-24 option this week while Washington is a desperation flex. Raiders declared WR Jalen Nailor, QB Aidan O’Connell, S Tristin McCollum, RB Roman Hemby, S Dalton Johnson, OL Trey Zuhn, and DT JJ Pegues inactive against the Patriots.
