LeSean McCoy (ribs) is day-to-day with his cracked rib cartilage.

The veteran running back is likely around 50/50 to play on Sunday against the Vikings, and the Bills could certainly use him in a very difficult matchup. We’ll monitor McCoy’s practice status throughout the week before the injury report is released ahead of the weekend.

Ian Thomas caught two passes for ten yards in Sunday’s loss to the Falcons.

The rookie also dropped a touchdown in the fourth quarter, but it didn’t end up costing Carolina on the drive. Thomas has the talent to make an impact with Greg Olsen (foot) out of the lineup, but first-year players usually have a difficult time producing at tight end, so the fourth-rounder isn’t a recommended fantasy option right now. He faces the Bengals in Week 3.

LeSean McCoy has cracked rib cartilage and is questionable for Week 3 against the Vikings, according to Adam Schefter.

Schefter says that McCoy will miss one game at the most, and it sounds like there’s at least a decent chance he suits up in Minnesota. If he does play, fantasy owners might be wise to look elsewhere against a stout front, as McCoy could be limited and/or leave the game early if things get out of hand, which is a definite possibility for Josh Allen’s first career road start against the league’s best defense. Chris Ivory probably isn’t worth a top waiver claim this week, especially with Bills-Vikings kicking off at 1 PM ET.

Albert Wilson scores in Week 2.

Wilson scored his first touchdown as a Dolphin in the victory against the Jets, catching a 29-yard strike from Ryan Tannehill on a play that Wilson did a great job of coming back to the ball in the end zone. Overall, Wilson had three receptions for 37 yards and a touchdown and added two carries for eight yards. It’s difficult to trust him in fantasy lineups.

Terrance Williams catches one pass in win over the Giants.

It went for 12 yards. Williams will look to get behind Seattle’s banged-up secondary next Sunday, but he isn’t a recommended fantasy option.

Frank Gore hits fourth on NFL’s rushing list.

The ageless veteran running back received ten touches in the Week 2 win against the Jets, carrying nine times for 25 yards and adding one reception for 19 yards. Kenyan Drake scored on a six-yard run, which is a blow to those hoping Gore would receive the touches deep in the red zone. In the win, Gore passed Curtis Martin for fourth all-time on the NFL’s rushing yardage list, and he’s now up to 14,112 yards in his career, behind only Emmitt Smith, Walter Payton, and Barry Sanders. Gore faces the Raiders in Week 3, and you can expect around another ten touches for him.

Cole Beasley held in check as Cowboys win on Sunday Night Football.

Beasley caught two passes for 13 yards in the 20-13 victory over the Giants. He isn’t a recommended fantasy option in standard leagues and doesn’t have much upside in PPR formats heading into a matchup with the Seahawks.
