[Panthers - Christian McCaffrey ruled out]( Source: Panthers.com - Darin Gantt Updating a previous report, Carolina Panthers RB [Christian McCaffrey](=) (hamstring) will not return against the Houston Texans in Week 3 after suffering a hamstring injury. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] McCaffrey injured his hamstring and it looks serious. He was immediately declared out for the game. Chuba Hubbard was the first man up to replace him. Hubbard seems like an obvious add for those of you with first-come-first-serve or Friday/Saturday free agency. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 2. [BAL - QB Lamar Jackson dealing with illness but reportedly will be fine]( Source: NFLCommunications.com Updating a previous report, Baltimore Ravens QB [Lamar Jackson](=) (illness) did not participate in practice Thursday, Sept. 23, because of an illness. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ESPN is reporting sources are saying Jackson will be "all fine" for Sunday's game at Detroit. If Jackson is your guy, keep an eye on this. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 3. [CLE - WR Odell Beckham Jr. likely a game-time call]() Source: Akron Beacon Journal - Marla Ridenour Cleveland Browns WR Odell Beckham Jr.'s availability in Week 3 likely will come down to game-time decision Sunday, Sept. 26 as he deals with a knee injury, offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt said Thursday. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] If he does play, Beckham could be on a snap count. That means he's likely more a what the heck flex if he plays in Week 3. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 4. [IND - QB Brett Hundley emerges]() Source: NFL Network - Tom Pelissero Indianapolis Colts QB Brett Hundley took the majority of starter repetitions in practice Wednesday, Sept. 22, and he could play alongside QB [Jacob Eason](=) if QB [Carson Wentz](=) (ankles) is out. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] It's an interesting development for the Colts as we continue to ponder whether or not Wentz is going to play in Week 3. No matter if Eason or Hundley start (or if they split reps), downgrade all Colts skill position players if Wentz is out. Friday is a big day for practice participation but Wentz may still be a game-time decision on Sunday.

[DET - WR Tyrell Williams lands on IR](=) Source: DetroitLions.com Detroit Lions WR [Tyrell Williams](=) (concussion) on Thursday, Sept. 23, was placed on the Reserve/Injured list. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Williams will now be cleared to return in Week 6 if he's able to come back at that time. The Lions turn to Quintez Cephus to get more targets with Williams out. Cephus has flex appeal for Fantasy GMs in deeper leagues. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 6. [IND - QB Carson Wentz remains absent]( Source: The Athletic - Zak Keefer Indianapolis Colts QB [Carson Wentz](=) (ankles) was not spotted at the team's practice Thursday, Sept. 23. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Wentz could be a game-time decision this week with these ankle problems. The Colts have Brett Hundley and Jacob Eason as starting options if Wentz misses Week 3. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 7. [NYG - WR Kenny Golladay limited Thursday]() Source: ESPN.com - Jordan Raanan New York Giants WR [Kenny Golladay](=) (hip) on Thursday, Sept. 23, was 'extremely limited' in the open portion of the team's practice. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Being 'extremely' limited isn't great news. While Golladay has disappointed so far this year, Fantasy GMs can trust Sterling Shepard as he produces in 2021. We'll know more about Golladay's status on Friday. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 8. [SEA - Seattle adding TE Jace Sternberger](=) Source: ESPN.com - Brady Henderson The Seattle Seahawks are signing free-agent TE Jace Sternberger (Packers) to their practice squad, according to ESPN's Brady Henderson. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Sternberger, a third-round pick for the Packers in the 2019 NFL draft, has been banged up and largely ineffective. He's athletic and still has upside, so in crazy deep dynasty formats we'll keep monitoring Sternberger.
