Blaine Gabbert leaves game against the Jaguars.

Gabbert took a big hit from Jaguars defensive lineman Malik Jackson, forcing Marcus Mariota into the game. Mariota is still at less than 100% with a right elbow injury, so he’s in a tough spot here against an elite Jaguars defense. Gabbert is headed for concussion protocol, which might keep him out for the remainder of the game.

Martavis Bryant catches all four targets in Raiders debut.

Bryant received a good amount of playing time after Oakland re-signed him earlier in the week, and he caught all four targets for 30 yards in the close loss to the Broncos. Bryant’s presence helps the Raiders for as long as he remains on the field, but he’s not a highly-recommended fantasy option right now.

Mike Wallace has a broken leg.

Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said they’re still evaluating to see how long Wallace will miss. There’s certainly a chance the sis a season-ending injury for Wallace, but more information should become available soon. This could make it more likely the Eagles are one of the teams interested in potentially acquiring Josh Gordon from the Browns.

The Steelers are listening to trade offers for Le’Veon Bell, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

It’s felt like things were headed in this direction for a while, but it’s still a surprise. After Bell surprisingly didn’t report to the team before the season while his agent indicated he would likely sit out through Week 10, things became worse, with some of Bell’s teammates publicly criticizing the All-Pro. The Steelers then went from removing Bell from the depth chart to removing him from the roster list entirely. It’s unclear who might be interested in acquiring Bell via a trade, if anyone, but there’s probably a chance Pittsburgh just releases their star running back if they are unable to trade him. James Conner remains locked in as the top back for the Steelers, and he might remain as such for a while.

Jordy Nelson catches two passes in Week 2.

Nelson gained 30 yards on his two receptions (four targets), including a catch of 23 yards. Nelson has had two very difficult matchups to start the season, and Amari Cooper was the clear focus of the passing game against the Broncos. Nelson will try to get going against the Dolphins in Week 3.
