Will Fuller suspended six games by the NFL.

Fuller’s season is now over, as it sounds like he either lost his appeal or will not be appealing in an Instagram post announcing the suspension and looking forward to next season. The speedy receiver says he took a prescribed medicine that a “medical professional” believed was prohibited under the NFL’s drug policy, but it was not. It’s good to see Fuller accept responsibility for the slip up. Fuller’s season ends with 53 receptions for 879 yards and eight touchdowns—career-highs across the board in just 11 games. Fuller is set to become a free agent this offseason, and he’ll likely have many suitors after staying healthy this year—but he’ll be out for Week 1 of next season.

The Patriots placed Julian Edelman on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Edelman is currently on injured reserve because of his knee injury, so hopefully he’s been isolated enough that his teammates aren’t in danger of being placed on the list. Also, keep in mind that landing on the COVID-19 list does not mean Edelman has tested positive for the virus, as he might have just been a close contact to someone that does have COVID-19.

The Browns activated Andy Janovich from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

This doesn’t have a huge impact from a fantasy perspective, but it’s good to hear that Janovich is healthy and off the COVID list.

The Packers are signing Tavon Austin, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo.

Austin could bring some added explosiveness to the return game, and he might also see snaps on offense similar to Tyler Ervin. That said, the former first-round pick isn’t currently on the redraft radar.

Josh Jacobs (ankle) has a chance to play in Week 13.

Tests confirmed that it is just a minor ankle issue, and NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport says Jacobs’ status will depend on how he feels—which we would guess means he will play through the injury. Yesterday was a disappointment for the Raiders in general, but Jacobs has a great bounce back spot against the Jets if he does indeed suit up on Sunday.

Daniel Jones’ hamstring injury is considered minor.

While Jones did not suffer a major hamstring injury, the expectation is that he might miss a game or two with the issue. Expect the Giants to let Jones practice on a limited basis throughout the week before seeing where he’s at when the final Week 13 injury report is released on Friday.

Josh Jacobs suffered an ankle sprain.

It’s thought to be a minor issue for Jacobs, but he’s having tests this morning according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. Devontae Booker would be the next man up for Vegas and would instantly be an excellent fantasy option if Jacobs were to miss time, but Jacobs will probably push to play through this if possible.
