Nick Foles Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections

Indianapolis Colts have released QB Nick Foles.

IND QB Nick Foles will start Week 16.

Nick Foles will play about a quarter and then Sam Ehlinger will play about a quarter and a half in the Colts' Saturday Preseason Week 2 game.

NIck Foles, Breshad Perriman, and Jesper Horsted are all listed inactive for tonight when the Bears take on the Los Angeles Rams. Justin Fields will serve as the backup quarterback for Andy Dalton though might have a few packages designed for him. Breshad Perriman was not expected to see many snaps and the same can be said for Jesper Horsted. The top targets for Dalton and Fields should be Allen Robinson, Darnell Mooney (active, previously questionable), and Cole Kmet.

Foles was unable to practice any of the previous three days, and he's officially been listed as doubtful on the Bears' injury report for Sunday night's Week 12 matchup against the Green Bay Packers due to a hip injury he sustained back in Week 10 prior to the Bears' bye week. This means that Mitchell Trubisky will start under center for Chicago after receiving all of the first-team quarterback reps at practice this week. Trubisky had been recovering from a shoulder ailment over the previous two games, otherwise, he may have already been given a shot to take his job back from Foles sooner given the latter's lackluster play of late. Neither Foles nor Trubisky has played well over a sustained period of time when given the opportunity, but there's little doubt that Trubisky and his rushing ability is the more appealing quarterback of the two for daily fantasy formats.

Foles was unable to practice for a second straight day, so he is trending towards not being available to play in Sunday night's Week 12 matchup against the Green Bay Packers due to a hip injury he sustained back in Week 10 prior to the Bears' bye week. This means that Mitchell Trubisky is expected to start under center for Chicago after receiving all of the first-team quarterback reps at practice thus far this week. Trubisky had been recovering from a shoulder ailment over the previous two games, otherwise, he may have already been given a shot to take his job back from Foles given the latter's lackluster play of late. Neither Foles nor Trubisky has played well over a sustained period of time when given the opportunity, but there's little doubt that Trubisky and his rushing ability is the more appealing quarterback of the two for daily fantasy formats.

Minshew will return to starting for the Jaguars on Sunday, taking back over for Nick Foles. The Jaguars have struggled with Foles as the starter this year, going 0-4 with him compared to 4-4 with Minshew. While Foles can't be blamed for the opening day loss where he was hurt early, the Jaguars have clearly been a more competitive team with Minshew running the show.

Chark and Conley both got their first full practice of the week in Thursday, indicating they will play this week without issue. They take on a below average Titans pass defense Sunday.
