[BAL - RB Todd Gurley not an option for Ravens](#11) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 1. [NE - QB Cam Newton in driver's seat?](=) Source: MassLive.com - Tom Westerholm New England Patriots QB Cam Newton played a few snaps with the starters Sunday, Aug. 29, before QB Mac Jones entered with the backups in what could have been an indication that Newton is in the lead in the competition. Head coach Bill Belichick refused to name a starter. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] The Patriots will keep everyone guessing for the time being. We always expected Newton to begin the season and then for Jones to take over at some point during the year. Jones has looked great and is in the perfect system for his skill set. Newton is trying to show he can bounce back after a poor performance as the Patriots starter in 2020. Stay tuned. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 2. [BAL - WR Marquise Brown to return to practice](=) Source: The Athletic - Jeff Zrebiec Baltimore Ravens WR Marquise Brown (hamstring) will participate in practice Monday, Aug. 30. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Brown has been limited to doing individual work on the side in training camp. With the preseason wrapped up, it's time to get Brown out there in preparation for the regular season. Expect him to be somewhat limited as they get him ready for Week 1. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 3. [IND - QB Carson Wentz may only miss a few days]() Source: NFL Network - Tom Pelissero Updating a previous report, Indianapolis Colts QB Carson Wentz is considered a close contact to someone who tested positive for COVID-19 and can return to practice in five days if he does not show any symptoms and tests negative, according to a source. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Someone on the staff tested positive for COVID-19 and Wentz now has to sit out for a few days. He should be able to come back in the near future. Jacob Eason gets to run the first team with Wentz out. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 4. [HOU - QB Deshaun Watson may be inactive each week]() Source: SportsTalk 790 - Aaron Wilson Houston Texans QB Deshaun Watson is not close to being traded at this time, and the Texans are prepared to keep him on their active roster and have him on the inactive list each week, according to sources. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] That sounds about right. Rumblings about a trade have been out there for some time, with the Dolphins and the Panthers being the most likely to make a move for Watson. We'll see if he's dealt but if not the Texans will keep him inactive each week until he's traded. Everyone is waiting for his legal issues to be resolved before we know when to expect him back on the field as a starter. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 5. [IND - WR T.Y. Hilton update]() Source: ESPN.com - Mike Wells Updating previous reports, Indianapolis Colts WR T.Y. Hilton (neck) will miss multiple games after he aggravated a neck disk issue in practice. 'He was experiencing some discomfort during the trip to Detroit (last week),' head coach Frank Reich said. 'Got scans done. It's a disk issue. That's a complicated issue. More meetings, more evaluations to come, more opinions to come. We want to do due diligence there.' [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Neck injuries are tricky to deal with and caution is needed moving forward. Hilton's injury is not season ending but he's going to be out quite some time. That leaves the Colts passing game without the seasoned veteran who was excited to get more deep shots this season. Zach Pascal and Michael Pittman will get more work as the top two receivers on the depth chart with Hilton out of action for multiple weeks. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 6. [IND - QB Carson Wentz on COVID list](=) Source: Colts.com Indianapolis Colts QB Carson Wentz was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Aug. 30. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Wentz was deemed close contacts with a staff member who tested positive for COVID-19, but he's eligible to return in five days as long he remains negative and asymptomatic. Jacob Eason will work as the first-team quarterback while Wentz is out.

[BAL - QB Trace McSorley ready to return](=) Source: The Athletic - Jeff Zrebiec Baltimore Ravens QB Trace McSorley (back) will participate in practice Monday, Aug. 30. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] McSorley is back in action, but he's going to work as the no.3 quarterback behind Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 8. [MIN - TE Tyler Conklin expected back soon]( Source: St. Paul Pioneer Press - Chris Tomasson Minnesota Vikings TE Tyler Conklin (hamstring) could return to practice at some point this week. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] With Irv Smith down for the start of the regular season due to a meniscus injury, Conklin will be their lead tight end if healthy. He's a streaming option for Fantasy GMs due to his talent and size of the role. Monitor his practice status before Week 1. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 9. [HOU - WR Andre Roberts on track for opener]( Source: HoustonTexans.com - Drew Dougherty Houston Texans WR [Andre Roberts](=) (undisclosed) did not play in any of the preseason games because of an injury, but head coach David Culley said Roberts should be available for Week 1. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Roberts is a reserve receiver who can contribute on special teams as well. The Texans offense isn't one to invest in, especially with a backup like Roberts. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 10. [BAL - TE Nick Boyle to miss start of season](=) Source: The Athletic - Jeff Zrebiec Baltimore Ravens TE Nick Boyle (knee) will not be ready for the start of the regular season and will be placed on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list or Reserve/Injured list. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] On the PUP list, Boyle will miss at least the first six weeks of the regular season. Boyle injured his knee last November and needed multiple surgeries to correct the issue. The team was hopeful he'd be ready for the start of the regular season but that's not the case. Without Boyle, the team will turn to guys like Eric Tomlinson/Josh Oliver behind starter Mark Andrews. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 11. [BAL - RB Todd Gurley not an option for Ravens](=) Source: JosinaMedia.com - Josina Anderson Free-agent RB Todd Gurley (Falcons) is not an option for the Baltimore Ravens, who like their running back depth, as of Monday, Aug. 30. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Gurley is going to have to keep waiting for an opportunity in 2021. Perhaps after Week 1, when veteran addition's salaries are not fully guaranteed, will get a team more interested in Gurley. The Ravens have Gus Edwards as their top back. Behind Edwards, watch Justice Hill get some change-of-pace and receiving work out of the backfield. Ty'Son Williams is worth monitoring in dynasty formats as well.
