Fantasy News
Rex Burkhead | Free Agent RB
Patriots RB Rex Burkhead (ribs) did not practice today.
Burkhead didn’t practice all last week and missed Sunday’s win over the Texans. This obviously isn’t a great start to this week for his chances of playing in Week 4, but it’s still only Wednesday.

Kelvin Benjamin | Free Agent TE
Kelvin Benjamin does not have structural damage to his knee, the team announced.
This is obviously great news and lines up with last night’s report from Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. It sounds like Benjamin could be ready to go on Sunday against New England, but we’ll know more in the coming days.

Latavius Murray | Free Agent RB
Latavius Murray gets nine touches in Week 4.
Murray carried seven times for 21 yards while adding two receptions for eight yards against the Lions. With Dalvin Cook (knee) looking like he’s probably done for the season, Murray is likely to take over most of the work in Minnesota’s backfield. He’ll be one of the top waiver wire pickups this week.

Doug Baldwin | Free Agent WR
Doug Baldwin (groin) is expected to play on Sunday night.
Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll talked to reporters and said Baldwin probably won’t practice until Friday, but that he expects to play in the game against the Colts. The problem is the Seahawks play in the Sunday night game, meaning fantasy owners might be unsure whether he’ll be in the lineup or not. The injury report for the game will be released on Friday, and we should know more then.

Ty Montgomery | Free Agent RB
Ty Montgomery (wrist) was a full participant in practice today.
He was limited yesterday, but there’s no concern for his status on Thursday against the Bears.

Cole Beasley | Free Agent WR
Cole Beasley catches lone target in Week 3 win.
Beasley ran a zig-type route late in the game and caught a four-yard pass for a first down. He faces the Rams in Week 4.

Tyler Boyd | Free Agent WR
Tyler Boyd catches both targets in Week 4.
With John Ross (knee) inactive again, Boyd was active for the Bengals. He’s not on the fantasy radar right now, as his role isn’t big enough to put up reliable numbers.
