Fantasy football live rankings injury news updates for NFL Week 1 sit-start decisions today

Blog Article

The NFL season has barely started, and fantasy football owners have already been thrown some major curveballs. It started before Thursday night's season opener when Travis Kelce (knee) was declared inactive, and it continued throughout the game with Patrick Mahomes, Jahmyr Gibbs, and Isiah Pacheco (among others) disappointing. What does the Week 1 Sunday slate have in store?We already know Christian Watson (hamstring), Cooper Kupp (hamstring), DJ Chark (hamstring), and Zack Mo s (arm) are OUT, and it was reported late Saturday night that Mark Andrews (quad) will also be watching Week 1 from the sidelines. Jerry Jeudy (hamstring) also seems unlikely to play after Denver elevated two WRs from its practice squad on Saturday afternoon.Other key "questionables" include Rhamondre Stevenson (illne s), Marquise Brown (hamstring), George Kittle (groin), Darren Waller (hamstring), Breece Hall (knee), Adam Thielen (hamstring), and Romeo Doubs (hamstring). We currently expect all to play, but as we saw with Andrews yesterday, things can change in a hurry.MORE: We'll be here all morning, reacting to injury news, watching the weather (there's !), and providing start 'em Albert Pujols Jersey , sit 'em recommendations based on the latest developments.Injury updates for NFL Week 1ESPN's Adam Schefter reported early Sunday morning thatGeorge Kittle (groin)is against the Steelers. Keep him in your lineups as usual, as even an 80-percent Kittle is better than most TEs.ESPN's Adam Schefter reported early Sunday morning that Romeo Doubs(hamstring) against Chicago. With Christian Watson (hamstring) out, Doubs will likely lead the Packers in targets, making him a viable WR3 in 12-team leagues. RookieJayden Reedalso makes for an intriguing deep-league sleeper/free-agent add.ESPN's Adam Schefter reported early Sunday morning that Jerry Jeudy(hamstring) is NOT expected to play against the Raiders. Courtland Sutton and Marvin Mims Jr. figure to see extra targets, making Sutton a borderline "must-start" and Mims a nice sleeper in 12-team leagues.NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported early Sunday morning that Marquise Brown (hamstring) is against Washington. Brown is still in play in PPR leagues given all the targets he figures to see, but with Josh Dobbs at QB, his ceiling is limited.NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported early Sunday morning thatRhamondre Stevenson (illne s)is against Philadelphia. Start him as usual, though don't be surprised if Ezekiel Elliott sees a few extra carries.ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported Sunday morning thatAdam Thielen(hamstring) is "" against Atlanta. With DJ Chark (hamstring) out, Thielen has some appeal as a WR3 in PPR leagues, but it's tough to know what to expect from him in his first game with a rookie QB. RookieJonathan Mingohas some deep-league sleeper appeal and is worth a speculative free-agent add if you have an open roster spot.Official Early Actives/Inactives NFL Week 1NOTABLE ACTIVES:George Kittle, Marquise Brown, Adam Thielen, Zach ErtzNOTABLE INACTIVES:Mark Andrews, Cordarrelle Patterson, Zack Mo s, Kendre Miller, DJ CharkWEEK 1 INJURY UPDATES: | | | | Playing time updates for NFL Week 1WithMark Andrews(quad) out,Isaiah Likelywill start and should see ample targets. It's tough to call him a "must-start," but given his talent, he profiles as a top-10 TE this week.NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported on Sunday morning that Dalvin Cook is expected to see the "bulk" of the Jets' carries "during the early part of the season." While he didn't give an estimated touch share between Cook andBreece Hall, clearly this is bad news for Hall (knee). We expected a split in touches, but if Cook truly is set to receive the majority of carries, he bumps up to a safe starter this week, while Hall is reduced to little more than a flex in deep leagues.NFL Network's Tom Peli sero reported Julio Urias Jersey on Sunday morning that Miami's De'Von Achane is against the Chargers, opening the door for Salvon Ahmedto see appreciable carries behind Raheem Mostert. Mostert remains the only Dolphins' back worth starting right now, but Ahmed is a worthwhile pickup given Mostert's injury history.NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported on Sunday morning thatJaylen Warrenis expected to get a "." This wouldn't cause us to sitNajee Harrisor start Warren, but it's something to watch in Week 1.San Francisco'sNick Bosaand Carolina'sBrian Burnsare both expected to suit up for their respective teams today. They might not play a full complement of snaps after their respective holdout/hold-in, but their presences should boost the outlooks of the 49ers' and Panthers' D/STs.The early inactives give us a glimpse into some handcuff situations.Chase Brownbeing inactive indicates thatTrayveon Williamsis the handcuff to own in Cincinnati.Joe Mixonowners should take note.Kendre Miller(hamstring) is out this week in New Orleans, pushingKirk Merrittto the primary backup role behindJamaal Williams.Eagles' beat reporter Olivia Reiner reported Sunday afternoon thatRashaad Pennyis against New England, leavingKenneth Gainwellas the primary backup toD'Andre Swift.Weather updates for NFL Week 1There will likely be off-and-on rain showers during games out East and in Denver, but the biggest worry is in New England for the Eagles-Patriots, where "" might occur.
