Darren Fells scores again in Week 6.

Fells caught two of four targets for 26 yards and a touchdown versus the Saints, making it three touchdowns in two games for Fells. He appears to have overtaken Eric Ebron as the primary tight end for the Lions, but you’re looking for a touchdown if you put Fells into your fantasy lineup—so there’s obvious risk.

Stefon Diggs (groin) did not practice today.

It’s not looking good for his status so far, as Diggs did not practice yesterday either. He’ll likely be listed as questionable when the injury report comes out tomorrow either way, but it’d be nice to see him at least in a limited practice session.

Tyler Eifert (back) is weighing a decision on a back surgery that would end his season, according to Adam Schefter and Field Yates.

It would be Eifert’s third back surgery, and unfortunately, we would assume he ends up deciding it’s necessary. If so, it would be a big blow to the Cincinnati offense, but they’ve played without him for much of his career. Hopefully whatever Eifert chooses to do, it leads to long-term health as both a player and person in life after football. Tyler Kroft is currently starting in his place for the Bengals.

Josh McCown was 31/47 for 354 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions in Sunday’s 24-17 loss to the Patriots.

The Jets got out to a 14-0 lead, and they played New England tough all game, but a highly questionable touchdown reversal from Austin Seferian-Jenkins turned a score into a turnover and allowed the Patriots to stay up 24-14 and eventually get the win. New York is now 3-3, and McCown’s play has been a big reason for their impressive start. They’ll look to get their second win against the Dolphins this season and improve to 4-3 next Sunday. There are probably better fantasy options than McCown.

Davante Adams caught five passes for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday’s loss to Minnesota.

Adams was able to find the end zone in the second quarter once Brett Hundley entered the game, and it was the only touchdown of the game for Green Bay. Hundley could remain the starter for the rest of the season with Aaron Rodgers potentially done with a broken collarbone, so it’s obviously a big blow to Adams and the rest of the offense. Adams should be downgraded to a low-end WR2 in standard leagues with undoubtedly less of a chance to score with Rodgers out of the lineup. Green Bay hosts the Saints in Week 7.

Sam Bradford (knee) is not practicing.

This is the second straight day of missed practice for Bradford, who doesn’t look like he’ll be playing against the Packers. Expect him to be ruled out tomorrow.

Rob Kelley (ankle) is a long shot to play this week.

Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said this, and it certainly sounds like Kelley will miss this Sunday’s game against the 49ers. Kelley was said to be day-to-day after his injury on Sunday night in Week 4, but apparently the ankle injury is worse than anticipated as he’s not practicing after the team’s Week 5 bye. Gruden is not going to play Kelley unless he’s on the practice field, and it doesn’t look like he’ll be practicing this week. Rookie Samaje Perine would probably get most of the carries if Kelley is out, but Mack Brown is someone to watch.
