Join now >Bengals TE Tyler Eifert is expected to miss multiple weeks, according to Adam Schefter.
This isn’t a surprise, as Eifert is dealing with a back injury. Schefter says Eifert doesn’t need back surgery right now, which is obviously great news. Hopefully Eifert can get back to 100% and contribute in the 0-3 Bengals in the coming weeks.

Jerick McKinnon gets two touches in Week 4.
McKinnon carried two times for zero yards and did not catch either of his targets (including one on third down), and he had a fumble on a wildcat play. Moving forward without Dalvin Cook, McKinnon will almost certainly mix in more on offense, but Latavius Murray will likely be the lead guy in the backfield. McKinnon is worth more of a look in PPR leagues than standard.

Kenny Golladay is officially questionable for Week 4.
The rookie receiver missed the last two days of practice after being limited on Wednesday. He’s probably a game-time decision, but it’s probably more likely than not he’s inactive for the game. The Lions play at 1:00 PM ET, so we’ll know Golladay’s game status by Sunday morning at 11:30 AM ET

Vernon Davis catches all five targets in Week 3.
Those that waited on Jordan Reed (rib, sternum) and opted to insert Davis when Reed was declared inactive are certainly happy. Davis had five receptions for 58 yards and a touchdown against the Raiders. He looked very good throughout the entire game, showing off his superb athletic ability and speed. Kirk Cousins targeted Davis on a crossing route on the first drive for Washington, kick starting things for the offense. And the touchdown was a 16-yarder on a dime from Cousins. Davis will be a TE1 option if Jordan Reed misses Week 4 against Kansas City, but they don’t play until Monday night.

Robert Turbin gets five carries in Week 3.
Turbin gained 18 yards on his five attempts while also adding one reception for two yards. Frank Gore (25 carries) handled most of the work in the backfield, so Turbin is more of a handcuff option for now.

Rashard Higgins catches two passes in Week 3.
Higgins had ten yards on his two receptions, and he actually had six targets in the game. He doesn’t need to be on fantasy rosters, but he’s worth keeping an eye on.

Marvin Jones Jr. gets five targets in Week 4.
Jones had two receptions for 42 yards against the Vikings in a defensive game, and he actually led the team in receiving. Jones is on pace for 32 receptions for 520 yards and eight touchdowns, but he should certainly pick up the production in the receptions and yardage category moving forward.
