A.J. Brown News
Monday, September 28, 10:21 AM
New England Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown (ankle) walked through the team's locker room without a limp on Monday, according to Taylor Kyles of Patriots CLNS. Brown was wearing cleats with a small ankle wrap. The Pro Bowl wideout was placed on Injured Reserve on Sept. 12 after suffering a dreaded high-ankle sprain in the season-opening loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Brown will not be officially allowed to resume practicing with the Patriots again until Week 6, but he is apparently making excellent progress and could be ready to be activated from IR as soon as he is eligible. Receivers Romeo Doubs, Mack Hollins, and DeMario Douglas have been on the field more in the last two weeks with Brown sidelined, but New England's aerial attack has really struggled under quarterback Drake Maye. The Patriots, who are now 1-2 through three weeks, cannot get Brown back soon enough. The 29-year-old three-time Pro Bowler caught three of four targets for 26 yards in Week 1 before injuring his ankle. Brown should be stashed in an IR spot in all fantasy football leagues.

Ladd McConkey News
Saturday, October 3, 9:16 AM
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey (foot) has a few things working against him entering Week 4. He was limited Wednesday, missed Thursday's practice and returned in a limited capacity Friday, leaving him questionable for Sunday's game in Seattle. McConkey has caught 12 of 15 targets for 183 yards and a touchdown through three games, so the efficiency has been there when Justin Herbert looks his way. The volume has not. He saw only three targets in Week 2 and five last week in Buffalo, finishing with four catches for 66 yards. Seattle has also been one of the toughest defenses for opposing wide receivers through three weeks. McConkey sits at WR32 in RotoBaller's Week 4 rankings with the foot injury, matchup and recent target totals all working against him. Fantasy managers need to make sure he is active Sunday, and even if he plays, he carries more risk than usual as a WR3 or flex option.
