Washington Commanders RB Jeremy McNichols (hamstring) was limited during practice Wednesday, Sept. 17.
Footballguys view: Watch this situation as McNichols is set to work as a backup behind starter Jacory Croskey-Merritt. McNichols is a veteran who can play on all three downs. He should get some time with Croskey-Merritt needs a breather. Chris Rodriguez is there to bring some power behind the Commanders' starter. |

Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (knee) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Sept. 17.
Footballguys view: There are rumblings that Daniels could get to practice on Friday. We'll believe it when that happens. Now, it looks like the Commanders are going to get Marcus Mariota as their starting QB in Week 3. |

Dallas Cowboys CB DaRon Bland (foot) and CB Trevon Diggs (illness) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Sept. 17. OT Tyler Guyton (shoulder) and WR KaVontae Turpin (neck) were limited during practice. The Cowboys only held a walkthrough Wednesday, so the report is an estimation.

Dallas Cowboys WR KaVontae Turpin (neck) was limited during practice Wednesday, Sept. 17. The Cowboys only held a walkthrough Wednesday, so this is an estimation.
Footballguys view: Turpin was having a good game in Week 2 against the Giants before suffering this neck injury. Let's see if this keeps him out of action against the Bears in Week 3. Turpin can make plays, but a limited role on offense means he's just a 'what the heck' flex in deeper leagues. |
Chicago Bears LB T.J. Edwards (hamstring), CB Kyler Gordon (hamstring), DT Grady Jarrett (knee), CB Jaylon Johnson (groin) and CB Jaylon T.

Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift (quadriceps) was limited during practice Wednesday, Sept. 17.
Footballguys view: It's early in the week, but keep an eye on this situation. Swift is the top back for the Bears right now, but rookie Kyle Monangai might start to get more work as the season goes on (especially if Swift is banged up). |

San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy (shoulder, toe) will be a limited participant during practice Wednesday, Sept. 17, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.
Footballguys view: 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said it is possible that Purdy (toe) could serve as the No. 2 quarterback in Week 3 against the Cardinals. Turf toe injuries need to be managed properly, but it seems like Purdy is on the right track to return sooner rather than later. Keep him stashed on your bench. |
Carolina Panthers LB Patrick Jones II (hamstring) and DT Tershawn Wharton (hamstring) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Sept. 17. WR Xavier Legette (hamstring) was limited during practice, while WR Brycen Tremayne (quadriceps) fully participated in practice.

Link to storyPhiladelphia Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (knee) is participating in practice Wednesday, Sept. 17.
Footballguys view: This is a good sign for Goedert early in the week. After missing Week 2, it looks like Goedert might return this week in a matchup against the Rams. Every time he's on the field, we expect TE1 numbers from Goedert. |

Houston Texans WR Christian Kirk (hamstring) is participating in practice Wednesday, Sept. 17.
Footballguys view: A good sign here. Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said he "expects" to get Kirk back in Week 3. The Texans need all the help they can get from guys not named Nico Collins. Getting Kirk back out there as the no.2 option would be a boost. If he plays against the Jaguars, we like him as a deep flex play. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield (knee) may miss some practice time this week but should be ready to play in the Week 3 game, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Footballguys view: We're feeling great here with the report Mayfield did not need to undergo any tests because of his injury. Against the Jets on Sunday, Mayfield should finish the week as a top-10 fantasy quarterback. |

Kansas City Chiefs WR Jalen Royals (knee) will practice with no limitations on Wednesday, Sept. 17.
Footballguys view: Until Royals gets on the field, we'll just keep the rookie on dynasty radars and that's it for now. |
Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) will have no limitations in practice on Wednesday, Sept. 17.
Footballguys view: Good news for the Chiefs here. They're 0-2 and falling behind in the AFC West, so getting Worthy out there can help. He's a speed demon who can fly down the field and be a big-play target for Patrick Mahomes. Don't start him his first week back, but take a wait-and-see approach to see how Worthy looks upon his return. |
Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (turf toe) will not be ruled out for the season, according to head coach Zac Taylor.
Footballguys view: Burrow's surgery to repair this toe injury has yet to happen, but it should be sometime here in the near future. When the Bengals get to the end of the regular season, Burrow could be ready for a return. However, if they're out of the playoff picture then there would be no need for him to play in mid-to-late December. Jake Browning is the starter for most of his year and we'll see how quickly Burrow can recover from surgery after a few months. |

Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (knee) had a good rehab session Wednesday, Sept. 17, and won't practice until Friday, Sept. 19, at the earliest, according to head coach Dan Quinn.
Footballguys view: Let's not get over the moon with this report. Daniels is unlikely to be ready to play for Week 3's contest against the Raiders. That means Marcus Mariota is next man up at the quarterback position. We've seen him look good in a Kliff Kingsbury offense, but it's likely to downgrade the numbers for Terry McLaurin, Zach Ertz, and Deebo Samuel. |
New York Jets QB Tyrod Taylor will start against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3.
Footballguys view: The Buccaneers present a tough challenge for the Jets this week. Taylor has a ton of experience and can use his legs to escape pressure. That makes him a consideration for Fantasy GMs in deeper superflex leagues. Adjust your expectations for WR Garrett Wilson this week as he might be best considered a WR2 with Taylor under center. |
Tyrod Taylor player page
New York Jets QB Justin Fields (concussion) was ruled out for Week 3.
Footballguys view: Fields sustained the first concussion of his pro career last week and is unable to get through the league's protocol in time to play in Week 3. That means the Jets turn to Tyrod Taylor as the starter. Taylor is a runner which makes him an option in deeper superflex leagues. Fantasy GMs with Garrett Wilson might think of him more as a WR2 with Taylor in the lineup. |

Los Angeles Chargers LB Khalil Mack (elbow) will miss a few weeks with a dislocated elbow, but the injury is not expected to end his season.
Footballguys view: Broncos QB Bo Nix can breathe a sigh of relief as he prepares to play a Chargers defense without Mack. The elbow injury is not serious enough to knock him out for the rest of the season, and most expect him back at some point in October. |
