Giants | Tyrone Tracy Jr. has stinger Sat Aug 29, 01:18 PM
Updating previous reports, New York Giants RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. (neck, shoulder) sustained a stinger during the preseason game against the New York Jets Friday, Aug. 28, according to head coach John Harbaugh.
| Footballguys view: Tracy was evaluated and then cleared for a concussion. Before exiting, Tracy had 37 yards and a touchdown on four carries. Cam Skattebo, Najee Harris and Devin Singletary along with Tracy make up the Giants' backfield, so Tracy would have to see injuries strike above him on the depth chart to have a fantasy relevant role. |
Broncos | Marvin Mims has foot bruise Sat Aug 29, 01:18 PM
Updating a previous report, Denver Broncos WR Marvin Mims (foot) sustained a bruised foot during the first quarter of the preseason game versus the Minnesota Vikings Friday, Aug. 28, according to head coach Sean Payton. He was taken to the locker room for evaluation and did not return to action.
| Footballguys view: Mims is an explosive playmaker at the wide receiver position, and he's an All-Pro return man for the Broncos. He doesn't get much work on offense, even though Mims seems to make plays anytime the team relies on him. Mims is behind Jaylen Waddle, Courtland Sutton, and Pat Bryant on the depth chart. He's competing with Troy Franklin to round out the position behind the top three. |
Panthers | Trevor Etienne battling ankle injury Sat Aug 29, 01:18 PM
Carolina Panthers RB Trevor Etienne (ankle) suffered an ankle injury during the preseason game against the Houston Texans Friday, Aug. 28, according to head coach Dave Canales.
| Footballguys view: We'll see how long this ankle injury will bother Etienne, a player who has gotten some starter's snaps earlier this month in training camp. He's third on the depth chart behind Jonathon Brooks and Chuba Hubbard, but Eteinne has the skill set to be a three-down back. |
Cardinals | Ankle issue for Ihmir Smith-Marsette Sat Aug 29, 01:18 PM
Arizona Cardinals WR Ihmir Smith-Marsette (ankle) will not return to the preseason game against the Green Bay Packers after exiting with an ankle injury Friday, Aug. 28.
| Footballguys view: Signed to a futures contract back in January, Smith-Marsette was always going to be hard-pressed to make this roster. He's buried on the depth chart at the wide receiver position, and the team may just cut ties with the veteran. Smith-Marsette was a fifth-round pick out of Iowa back in 2021, and he's bounced around to six different NFL teams since then. He's mostly been a special teams player in the NFL. |

Jets | Omar Cooper Jr. locked in tight battle Sat Aug 29, 01:18 PM
New York Jets WR Omar Cooper Jr. and WR Isaiah Williams are 'engaged in a battle' for the No. 3 receiver job, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Cooper, a 2026 first-round pick out of Indiana, is known as a slot bully because of his run-after-the-catch ability. He needs to learn how to run the full route tree, but the potential is there for Cooper to be a dangerous playmaker. Williams, undrafted out of Illinois in 2024, is a return man who can flip the field with quickness and speed. Cooper should win the job, but Williams is not letting it go without a fight. Dynasty GMs should be invested in Cooper for the long-term outlook. |

Chargers | Justin Herbert makes most of short night Fri Aug 28, 05:27 PM
Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert completed two of his three pass attempts for 74 yards and a touchdown during the preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams Thursday, Aug. 27. He also lost a fumble.
| Footballguys view: Herbert's 65-yard touchdown pass to Quentin Johnston was the longest in air yards in any Mike McDaniel offense. That should get us excited to see what this offense can achieve if the offensive line holds up. Herbert and the rest of the Chargers passing game has a high ceiling, and Omarion Hampton could deliver second round value if the passing game loosens up defenses. |

Raiders | Fernando Mendoza tosses pick Fri Aug 28, 05:27 PM
Las Vegas Raiders QB Fernando Mendoza completed seven of his 14 pass attempts for 57 yards and an interception during the preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers Thursday, Aug. 27.
| Footballguys view: Mendoza probably won't start Week 1 vs. Miami, but not because of his preseason interceptions. The team wants to wait until the team is settled and can give him a better environment to develop before starting the #1 pick. He is still worth drafting and stashing in 2QB/Superflex leagues, as he'll be starting sooner than later unless Kirk Cousins finds the Fountain of Youth. |
Bills | Skyler Bell active against Pittsburgh Fri Aug 28, 05:27 PM
Buffalo Bills WR Skyler Bell caught seven of his 10 targets for 49 yards and added a 28-yard rushing touchdown during the preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers Thursday, Aug. 27.
| Footballguys view: The fourth round pick Bell was hurt for most of camp, but he showed out in this game to give the Bills an idea of what he could contribute. Keon Coleman and Khalil Shakir are banged up right now, so Bell should be on our waiver wire watch list because he plays with Josh Allen. |
Browns | Dillon Gabriel shines in preseason finale Fri Aug 28, 05:27 PM
Cleveland Browns QB Dillon Gabriel completed 12 of his 15 passes for 186 yards and three touchdowns during the preseason game against the New England Patriots Thursday, Aug. 27.
| Footballguys view: Will Gabriel start a game for the Browns this year? Will he start more games than any other Browns quarterback? Will he even make the team? He should after this performance. Keep him on your superflex dynasty radar. |
49ers | Kaelon Black rushes for 28 yards Fri Aug 28, 05:27 PM
San Francisco 49ers RB Kaelon Black rushed four times for 28 yards during the preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders Thursday, Aug. 27.
| Footballguys view: Black has done everything he could when he was healthy this summer to prove that he is a capable backup to Christian McCaffrey. He's the back to target late if you want to hedge McCaffrey's recent injury history. |
Raiders | Mike Washington Jr. keeps rolling Fri Aug 28, 05:27 PM
Las Vegas Raiders RB Mike Washington Jr. rushed eight times for 49 yards during the preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers Thursday, Aug. 27.
| Footballguys view: The possibility of Washington forcing a running back by committee in Las Vegas is upon us even though Ashton Jeanty could play in Week 1. Washington is a good bench stash to see what happens as he has earned his playing time with outstanding play in the preseason that showed off patience, vision, and footwork to go with his size and speed. |
Chiefs | Kenneth Walker III impressing as receiver Fri Aug 28, 05:27 PM
Kansas City Chiefs RB Kenneth Walker III has impressed head coach Andy Reid with his route-running ability and his ability to separate from linebackers in man-to-man coverage.
| Footballguys view: Walker did have an injury scare when he had swelling related to his cleat, but he is still a high ceiling second round pick with the possibility of being the rare power back who is also featured in the passing game. He just needs to stay healthy, which was a problem most years when he was in Seattle. |
Jaguars | LeQuint Allen expected to avoid IR Fri Aug 28, 05:27 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars RB LeQuint Allen (undisclosed) is sidelined because of a soft tissue injury, but there is no indication that he will need to start the regular season on the Reserve/Injured list.
| Footballguys view: Whatever added upside there will be for Bhayshul Tuten or Chris Rodriguez (it's not clear if either or both would help replace Allen early in the season) will be short-lived. |
Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson on track for opener Fri Aug 28, 05:27 PM
New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) is expected to be ready for Week 1 despite suffering an ankle injury earlier this week, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Rhamondre Stevenson should be going well ahead of Henderson, who hasn't moved up from the place he ended the season at on the depth chart. This injury scare isn't a big reason why, but it is a reminder. |

Link to story Raiders | Malik Benson could have role Fri Aug 28, 04:17 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Travis Hunter, for the last two weeks, has taken snaps 'almost exclusively at cornerback' during practice, according to Sports Illustrated's John Shipley.
| Footballguys view: Hunter is a late round pick at best right now, but he has the talent to be a very good fantasy wide receiver if injuries or a change of plans gives him the opportunity on offense. If he is listed at corner, he is still a good IDP pick this season. |
