A.J. Brown Back on the Practice Field

Wednesday, August 27, 3:06 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) appeared to be practicing on Wednesday, according to Zach Berman of The Athletic. The Eagles don't have to release an official practice report until Sunday, though, so we won't really know more specifics on Brown's practice participation until then. The 28-year-old also looked good while doing a pre-game workout before the team's preseason finale last Friday, so all signs are pointing to Brown being ready to roll for Week 1 of the regular season on Thursday night against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 4. The three-time Pro Bowler had his third straight 1,000 yard season in 2024 in his third year in Philly on his way to helping the team win their second Super Bowl championship. Injuries can be an issue, but when healthy, Brown is a top-10 fantasy wideout in one of the best offenses in football.

Dolphins GM Says De'Von Achane Will be Ready for Week 1

Wednesday, August 27, 10:43 AM

Miami Dolphins general manager Chris Grier said the club should have running back De'Von Achane (calf) available for Week 1, according to Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN. The star back's status for the start of the season has been something of an open question, but the club's optimism Wednesday certainly was a good sign. Achane piled up 78 catches and six receiving touchdowns last season to go with 907 rushing yards and six more scores on the ground, making him one of the most dynamic fantasy assets in the league. He looks ready to go for the Dolphins' opener against Indianapolis.
