Fantasy News

The Titans signed Rod Smith.

Smith played in 48 games with the Cowboys from 2015 to 2018 and was recently with the Giants, and the Titans are adding him to the backfield mix behind Derrick Henry and Dion Lewis. The Ohio State product is not a recommended fantasy pickup, but he’s an interesting add for Tennessee in real life.

The Saints are signing Zach Zenner, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

Rapoport says Zenner is being signed as insurance in case Alvin Kamara (ankle) cannot play this Sunday against the Bears, so it sounds like Kamara might not be able to play in Week 7 after battling through the injury last week. Zenner is not a highly recommended fantasy pickup yet.

Christian Kirk (ankle) is officially inactive for Week 6.

Kirk is getting closer to a return, but he was expected to miss today’s game against the Falcons. The second-year receiver should have a decent shot to be ready for next Sunday’s game versus the Giants. It’s difficult to fully trust any other Arizona receivers aside from Larry Fitzgerald for Week 6, though some secondary players could do some damage in a potential shootout.

Will Dissly leaves game with apparent leg injury.

Dissly appeared to go down with a non-contract leg injury on a pass to the end zone. It appears to be his left leg, which could be good news after it was his right knee that he suffered a season-ending injury to last season; but he’s still being helped off the field and does not appear able to put much pressure on his leg. We’ll update you as more information becomes available, but it does not look like Dissly will be able to return to today’s game.

Vernon Davis (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 6.

This will be Davis’ second consecutive missed game with a concussion, and Jordan Reed also remains out with his own concussion. We hope they can clear concussion protocol soon. Terry McLaurin is the only Redskins wide receiver or tight end we recommend considering in fantasy lineups this week against the Dolphins.

Marquise Brown (ankle) is officially listed as questionable for Week 6.

Brown is set to be a game-time decision on Sunday, but the good news is the Ravens face the Bengals at 1:00 PM ET, so his status will be known before all the games aside from the London Game (9:30 AM ET) have kicked off. However, Brown did not practice the last two days and might be on the worse side of questionable. The rookie receiver will have upside if active, but there’s a chance he’s limited at less than 100%.

James Washington (shoulder) is expected to miss a few weeks, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

This is yet another blow to Pittsburgh’s offense this season, and it’ll make things more difficult moving forward, as Washington is arguably the team’s best field stretcher. Veteran receiver Donte Moncrief might step back into a role as a top three receiver along with JuJu Smith-Schuster and Diontae Johnson while Washington is out, but Smith-Schuster is the lone recommended fantasy option in standard-sized leagues. Washington will have upside late in the season, but he’s not a must-hold if you need space on your roster.
