Join now >Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday Night Football.
This is what he was listed as for Week 1, but he’s no doubt closer to playing after he was able to practice on a limited basis this week. It’ll likely come down to a game-time decision for OBJ, which unfortunately could put fantasy owners in a bind with the Giants playing in the final game of the week. If you can, you should insert Beckham into your FLEX spot and have a replacement from the MNF game in case Beckham is inactive. If you don’t have any good fantasy options in that game as a plan B, it might be best to just bench OBJ for someone playing on Sunday. Though keep in mind Beckham was reportedly involved in a dance off last week—he should be good to do for Monday night, but there’s risk.

Broncos WR Bennie Fowler leaves Week 2 game against the Cowboys.
Fowler went up and made a nice catch by the end zone but he landed hard out of bounds and came up very wobbly. It did not look good, and he’s out for the game. Hopefully Fowler, who had one reception for eight yards before leaving and has been working as Denver’s number three receiver, ends up being OK.

Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon is suspended two more games.
Because Dixon is on Injured Reserve with a torn meniscus, this doesn’t really matter. But the original four-game suspension was for PEDs and this additional two games is for substance abuse, according to Ian Rapoport. It won’t affect Dixon unless he gets suspended again, and he’ll have a clean slate for 2018 as he will almost certainly be 100% recovered from his torn meniscus.

Jordan Reed (chest) is out for Week 2.
Reed, who went to the locker room earlier, returned with his hands in his hands indicating he won’t be playing for the rest of the game. Reed had six receptions for 48 yards before leaving the game and for now should be considered questionable for next Sunday night against Oakland.

Markus Wheaton (finger) is questionable for Week 2.
Wheaton was a limited participant in practice all week. If he does not play in Week 2, Week 3 seems like a good bet. Wheaton has some long-term upside for the season, but he’s not an advisable option if he does play on Sunday.

Corey Coleman is believed to have a broken bone in his hand, according to Ian Rapoport.
As Rapoport notes, a similar injury occurred last year at they time to Coleman when he injured his hand in practice. Last season, Coleman’s hand injury forced him to miss six games, so it could be a similar timeline this time around. It’s unfortunate the first receiver selected in last year’s draft is having such bad luck with injuries to start his career.

Jordan Howard (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Week 2.
Howard was again a limited participant in practice today, which is what he’s been all week. He’s expected to play in the game, but there’s definitely a chance he won’t have his normal workload. Howard is still too good to be out of lineups against the Bucs. Be sure to check back in on Sunday morning to make sure he’s active for the game.
