Josh Jacobs Off Injury Report
Jacobs has appeared on the injury report with a hip injury, while also reportedly losing 10 pounds due to an illness this week. However, he is healthy enough that he was not on the injury report Friday. Jacobs is expected to see his normal workload this week.

Mark Andrews (Foot) Questionable Week 3
Andrews is listed as questionable but there is little risk of him not playing. He was questionable last week before producing producing 8 catches, 100+ yards and a TD for the second consecutive week. He is a top TE option once again this week.
As reported by: Ryan Mink Alshon Jeffery (Calf), Dallas Goedert (Calf) Both Questionable
Both players are officially questionable and their status will need to be monitored prior to this week’s game.
As reported by: James Palmer Other tagged players: Dallas Goedert Albert Wilson Out Week 3
Wilson was injured Week 1, sat out Week 2 and has now been ruled out for Week 3. The Dolphins are clearly the worst team in the league, and the change to Josh Rosen is unlikely to help the passing attack. Even when healthy, Wilson’s upside is limited by this offense.
As reported by: Cameron Wolfe Tavon Austin (Concussion) Out Week 3
Austin has been ruled out for Week 3. He only has 1 target on the season, so this is not a significant loss for the Cowboys passing offense. However, Michael Gallup has also been ruled out, so there are significant targets available in the Cowboys offense this week.
As reported by: Michael Gehlken Greg Olsen (Back) Questionable Week 3
Although Olsen is officially questionable, reports indicate he is likely to play Week 3. He will have a new QB throwing to him, with Kyle Allen replacing Cam Newton. Olsen is typically a strong fantasy option when healthy, and even with the young QB he should be productive.
As reported by: Steve Reed Cam Newton (Foot) Out Week 3, Kyle Allen Will Start
Newton has officially been ruled out for Week 3 with a foot injury. He had not been practicing, so this move was expected. Kyle Allen will get his second career start when the Panthers take on the Cardinals.
As reported by: Adam Schefter Other tagged players: Kyle Allen Damien Williams Out Week 3
Damien Williams has been ruled out for Week 3. LeSean McCoy will be the lead back if he can play. He has been working his way through an ankle injury and has improved each day since Wednesday, but his status will still need to be checked before Sunday. Darwin Thompson would be the next RB behind McCoy, with Darrel Williams behind him.
As reported by: Adam Teicher Other tagged players: LeSean McCoy, Darwin Thompson, Darrel Williams Sterling Shepard Will Play Week 3
Shepard will be the number 1 WR option for the Giants, as rookie QB Daniel Jones makes his NFL debut. Shepard had been working back from a concussion and cleared the protocol Thursday. On Friday he was not mentioned on the injury report, indicating he is expected to go fully Week 3.
As reported by: Jordan Raanan Courtland Sutton (Ribs) Returns to Practice Friday
Sutton wasn’t able to practice Thursday, but at least returned to practice partially Friday. This is a positive sign for his chances of playing, but he should be considered questionable until we hear otherwise.
As reported by: Zac Stevens Jimmy Graham Practices, Questionable Week 3
Graham missed the last two days of practice, but was able to get a good practice in Friday. He should still be questionable for Sunday, but he has a good chance to play. Graham played 72% of snaps Week 2 but only got 1 target, so his role could be limited even if healthy.
As reported by: Ryan Wood David Njoku (Wrist, Concussion) Out Week 3
Njoku being ruled out confirms what we already knew. He picked up a concussion and a wrist injury Week 2, so his status beyond this week is in question as well. The Browns are still figuring out whether or not he will require surgery on the wrist. Demetrius Harris will be the top TE option in the passing game for the Browns this week.
As reported by: Nate Ulrich Other tagged players: Demetrius Harris Tyler Kroft (Ankle) Out Week 3
Kroft injured his ankle in practice Thursday and will miss Week 3, preventing him from making is season debut. Dawson Knox will be the TE1 for the Bills, with Lee Smith behind him. Neither are particularly exciting DFS options.
As reported by: Ian Rapoport Other tagged players: Dawson Knox, Lee Smith Devin Singletary Out Week 3
Singletary was unable to practice this week and will miss Week 3. Gore will move into the feature back role with Yeldon also having a role in the offense. The injury for Singletary is not believed to be too significant, and there is hope he will return for Week 4.
