[TB - RB Giovani Bernard on field Sunday](#5) 6. [TEN - RB Jeremy McNichols removed from COVID-19 list](#6) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 1. [DAL - Zack Martin to miss opener]( Source: The Dallas Morning News - Michael Gehlken Dallas Cowboys OG Zack Martin (illness) will not play in the Week 1 game because he has tested positive for COVID-19, according to head coach Mike McCarthy. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] The Cowboys offensive line is banged up entering their Week 1 matchup against the Buccaneers. Connor McGovern is expected to start in place of Martin, and Fantasy GMs can feel comfortable dropping projections for RB Ezekiel Elliott in Week 1. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 2. [DAL - CeeDee Lamb on track for Week 1]( Source: The Dallas Morning News - Michael Gehlken Dallas Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb said he will be ready for the Week 1 game even though he missed time because of COVID-19. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Good news for Lamb and the Cowboys passing game here. Lamb was used extensively in the slot last year as a rookie. However, this year in training camp it was Michael Gallup working mostly in that spot with Lamb lining up on the outside. The Cowboys have three wide receivers (Lamb, Gallup, Amari Cooper) who can hurt defenses, so expect them to go to the air often. Lamb has WR1 upside every week regardless of the matchup because of his talent and the volume everyone expects from Dak Prescott and the passing game. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 3. [BAL - James Proche fined]() Source: NFL Network - Tom Pelissero Baltimore Ravens WR James Proche was fined $4,567 by the National Football League for unsportsmanlike conduct following a touchdown catch in a preseason game against the Washington Football Team Saturday, Aug. 28. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Proche, a sixth-round pick in 2020 out of SMU, is trying to work his way up the Ravens depth chart. He's currently no.4 on the depth chart behind Marquise Brown, Sammy Watkins and Devin Duvernay.

[IND - Indy meets with Austin Fort]() Source: SportsTalk 790 - Aaron Wilson Free-agent TE Austin Fort (Broncos) recently met with the Indianapolis Colts. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Fort is a talented tight end who can make tough grabs. He's spent two seasons with the Broncos after coming into the league as an undrafted free agent out of Wyoming. He struggled with knee injuries during that time and failed to make the Broncos this year, so that's why he's available for a team like the Colts. We'll continue to monitor Fort but only in crazy deep dynasty formats. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 5. [TB - RB Giovani Bernard on field Sunday]() Source: The Athletic - Greg Auman Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Giovani Bernard (ankle) participated in practice Sunday, Sept. 5. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] The expectation is that Bernard will be ready in Week 1. Bernard had missed a few days of practice with a mild high-ankle sprain but is now trending in the right direction. He'll serve as the third-down/pass-catching back for the Buccaneers behind Leonard Fournette and Ronald Jones. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 6. [TEN - RB Jeremy McNichols removed from COVID-19 list]( Source: TennesseeTitans.com - Jim Wyatt Tennessee Titans RB Jeremy McNichols was activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Sept. 4. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] McNichols is a good all-purpose back who could be the no.2 behind Derrick Henry. With second-year pro Darrynton Evans (knee) on IR, the Titans may turn to McNichols when Henry needs a breather.
