The deal contains $11 million guaranteed in the form of a signing bonus. Rhyan, only 26, would have been a good bet to hold value through his twenties. He played both right guard and center last year, finishing with a career-best PFF run block grade of 65.6. This signing likely seals that Elgton Jenkins will be traded or released.

Campbell injured his knee in Week 5, initially causing quite the scare. Fortunately, he was able to practice all week and has a chance to face the Jets and their talented pass-rush group in Week 6.

Cooper missed the first six games of the season while on the list, and his felony court case has been moved to after the season. It’s unclear if the league considers time served on this list as separate from a personal conduct policy violation; it’s possible Cooper faces another suspension at some point. For now, it seems the NFL is content to let him play in Week 7 despite unresolved felony assault charges and domestic violence and harassments charges.

Gonzalez has not played since Week 3, but he returns in time to cover Garrett Wilson in a divisional showdown. Gonzalez primarily lines up on the perimeter, but he has taken 15 combined snaps in the slot and in the box. He could take a few reps on the inside this week, but perimeter CB2 Carlton Davis (neck) is out, so Gonzalez could be asked to simply stay out wide.

He did upgrade to a full practice and Aaron Glenn told reporters he expects Sadiq to play. Sadiq’s fantasy upside is well-known, but with Mason Taylor back and Omar Cooper Jr. also pushing to play, his target volume has shrunk quite a bit from some of the early-season scenarios we’ve seen. He’s likely a TE2 at this point.

The Patriots’ No. 2 running back was limited all week after being diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain. He told reporters today that he was surprised he could practice this week, and is feeling “pretty good.” If active, he will be a FLEX starter, but Rhamondre Stevenson should lead the backfield in touches.

It’ll be the Jalon Daniels show again. Mayfield did not practice at any point this week. Todd Bowles tried to tell us that it was too early to tell earlier today; it wasn’t. We’ll need to see Mayfield on the practice field next week before we think he has a real shot to play against the Panthers in Week 7.

Thompson worked three limited sessions. If active he’ll likely be a boom-bust deep-league FLEX play as the Chargers have struggled to go deep with their current offensive line situation.

Gordon, the team’s starting slot cornerback, and Tyrique Stevenson (hip), the team’s No. 2 perimeter cornerback, are both questionable. Bears LB T.J. Edwards (hamstring) has been ruled out. This defense is banged up, boding positively for the Falcons’ fantasy football outlook.

That is back-to-back weeks of no James. Donte Jackson (hamstring) was also ruled out. We’re almost through the Chargers blurbs. We think they should just put some people on injured reserve too. Keep reading.

With Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston suiting up this week, any chance of Lambert-Smith returning to real fantasy value looks quashed. For this week, anyway. He did get in a full session today. If activated off injured reserve ahead of the contest, he can be ignored until after the Week 7 bye.
