Fantasy Football News and Rumors

If Bourne does miss TNF, and the game is played as scheduled, that would mean that SF doesnt have a single person that had an offensive touch in the NFC Title game available for tomorrow's game.

I'll bet SF still gains more yards and scores more points than the Bears do against TEN. Ugh.

 

[Robotech]

Aiyuk out. Placed on COVID list.

ill take that bet

49ers placed WR Brandon Aiyuk on the reserve/COVID-19 list and he will miss Thursday's Week 9's game against the Packers.​

Deebo Samuel and LT Trent Williams join Aiyuk on the COVID-19 list as close contacts to Kendrick Bourne, who was previously ruled out. Samuel was already set to miss the game, but the 49ers now will be without their top two wide receivers and best left tackle. It is fair to question how this game is moving forward as planned on Thursday night and, if it is indeed played, who will catch passes from Nick Mullens. The 49ers are down to Trent Taylor and Richie James at the position on the active roster, but three names on the practice squad

This is getting ridiculous. How can the NFL play this game? Exactly how many people have to be ruled out in order to get a postponement? I'll bet you if Tom Brady tested positive the day before Sunday night football they would postpone his game in a heartbeat.

If the Packers still had their BYE available I would bet it would have been moved for sure.

Okay, seriously... WTF with Michael Thomas? Is he hurt, or just being a whiney little bitch?

He's no longer on the Patriots so duh of course the league loves him now

Wait, he's not playing AGAIN!!!??

I really like the Saints are fing with him after everything that has happened.

Allen Lazard posted on social media that he is on the team's flight to Thursday's Week 9 game against the 49ers.​

Lazard is still in his window to be activated off injured reserve, so no practice status has been announced. We do know he participated last Thursday but have not seen updates since, so do not take this report as fact. There is a chance he is activated prior to kickoff on Thursday and could immediately be considered a FLEX option, as the Packers are heavy favorites facing off against an injury-riddled 49ers team.

The Texans will close its facilities Thursday due to a positive COVID-19 test.​

As always with positive tests, the Texans will shut down its facilities and force the player who tested positive (to be revealed on tomorrow's transactions wire) to keep at home. Any players who were deemed in close contact will also quarantine and be ruled out for Sunday due to the league's five-day window. As it stands, Sunday's contest between the Texans and Jaguars is still scheduled to occur.

Dolphins placed Myles Gaskin (knee) on injured reserve.​

Not sure if for certain. Just his status and limited practices and such... Seems like an awfully drawn out injury here...

Michael Thomas (hamstring, ankle) is practicing Wednesday.​

Thomas practiced last week before ultimately missing Week 8 against the Bears, but being out there on a Wednesday would suggest his chances of suiting up against the Bucs this Sunday are much higher. Emmanuel Sanders and Marquez Callaway also practiced Wednesday.

He seems like a wuss for sure then. Or the Saints truly are punishing him

Now I am seeing reports Aaron Jones is good to go for tonight...wtf, it seems like this happens every single week with a player. They are "good to go" and then play 5 snaps. I already have enough injuries then I have to deal with this bullshit

Who the hell is Dexter Williams? Jeez, I thought the Patriots were the champs at juggling their RBs. Freakin' Shanahan takes the cake!
