Brandon Aiyuk to Begin Practicing Ahead of Week 10?

Tuesday, October 14, 3:21 PM

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Monday that wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (knee) is getting "closer and closer" to returning to practice following his ACL and MCL tears in his right knee in Week 7 of last year. While the Niners aren't giving any specific date for a potential return to the practice field for Aiyuk, Shanahan mentioned Week 10 as a rough estimate, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. Despite the Niners also dealing with injuries to receivers Jauan Jennings (ribs) and Ricky Pearsall and tight end George Kittle (hamstring), Aiyuk isn't going to be rushed back. And even if Aiyuk does return to practice ahead of the team's Week 10 game against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams, it doesn't mean the former first-rounder would be active for his season debut that week. Once Aiyuk's practice window is open, the 49ers will have 21 days to officially activate him from the Physically Unable to Perform list. Fantasy managers who are stashing Aiyuk must remain patient.

Romeo Doubs Is A Solid Flex Play In Week 7

Friday, October 17, 5:24 PM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs has been a solid performer of late and looks to keep that going when the Packers face the Arizona Cardinals in Week 7. With 17 targets in his last two games, Doubs has paced the Packers over the last couple of weeks in the target-earning department. Of all the pass-catchers in Green Bay, Doubs is considered the most dependable option in that regard. For the Packers' offense, it all comes down to the team having the intent to pass the ball, which has not always been the game plan in most weeks. Still, Doubs is a solid flex option against the Cardinals in Week 7, who have given up the 12th-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season.
