Kenjon Barner (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 4.

Ito Smith is good to go with his concussion, and the Falcons say one of Brian Hill and rookie Qadree Ollison will be active as another running back this week. Hopefully Barner is feeling better soon.

Chad Beebe tore ligaments in his ankle, according to multiple reports.

Because Beebe is going to miss time with this ankle injury, the Vikings re-signed former first-round pick Laquon Treadwell. Minnesota is said to still be evaluated Beebe’s ankle injury, but he’ll likely miss at least a few weeks and should be a candidate for injured reserve.

Jordan Howard scores three times in win over the Packers.

Howard rushed 15 times for 87 yards and two touchdowns, also adding three receptions for 21 yards and another score as a receiver. Overall, Philadelphia’s blocking was excellent, but it helped that they finally committed to Howard on early downs, as he consistently picked up positive yardage thanks to his elite power and vision. Miles Sanders will remain involved, but Howard earned more touches and will be firmly on the FLEX radar for a Week 5 matchup against the Jets.

The Vikings are re-signing Laquon Treadwell, according to ESPN.

It’s surprising no other team signed the former first-round pick, but he lands back with the team that drafted him after being cut at the end of August. Treadwell is still just 24 years old and enters an offense he’s comfortable with, but he’s not a recommended fantasy pickup in a run-heavy attack.

Davante Adams (toe) did not return to tonight’s game.

Adams was injured in the fourth quarter during a key drive for the Packers, but not before torching the Eagles for ten receptions and 180 yards. There was talk from Green Bay that they needed to get Adams the ball more, and they certainly did that early and often, as Adams had 158 yards in the first half and over 100 in the first quarter alone. Now we just have to hope Adams’ injury doesn’t force him to miss an extended period of time. Adams will have ten days to get healthy for a Week 5 matchup at Dallas, but we should get word on the extent of his injury in the next 24-48 hours.

Taylor Gabriel (concussion) is out for the rest of tonight’s game.

Gabriel had an excellent game against the Redskins before leaving, catching six passes for 75 yards and three touchdowns. The first two scores were on short passes in the red zone, and the third touchdown came on a 36-yard pass down the right sideline after he beat Josh Norman. All three touchdowns came in the second quarter, and Gabriel became the first player in Monday Night Football history to catch three touchdowns in one quarter. This isn’t the type of game you should expect consistently from Gabriel moving forward, as he remains a boom/bust FLEX option. Hopefully he feels better soon, and he’ll need to clear concussion protocol to play this Sunday versus the Vikings.

Davante Adams (toe) is officially questionable to return for the Packers.

Adams was hurt getting tackled in the fourth quarter, as he immediately stretched for his foot after feeling discomfort. The star receiver limped to the sideline and is now limping noticeably. He has his helmet on, but he looks very frustrated and appears unlikely to return to tonight’s game. We’ll update you when more information becomes available.
