Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (wrist) logged a limited practice on Thursday. This is important to note as Thomas was able to participate in full during Wednesday's session. Following their Week 2 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, the former first-round pick was said to be battling a minor wrist injury. While he appeared to be past this injury following Wednesday's practice, he may still be dealing with some lingering effects. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status following Friday's practice, as he may be in danger of missing Sunday's game if he is unable to upgrade to full participation. The LSU product has had a disappointing start to the season, catching just five of his 19 targets for 60 yards. If he were to miss Sunday's contest, rookie Travis Hunter will likely see a significant workload in the passing attack.

New England Patriots running back Tre'Veyon Henderson rushed for 10 yards on three carries during Sunday's Week 2 win over the Miami Dolphins. He also caught two passes for an additional 30 yards through the air. After an impressive season opener, the rookie took a step back this past weekend as he was out-produced by Rhamondre Stevenson. In fact, Stevenson led the team in carries, rushing yards, targets, receptions, and receiving yards. Stevenson's big game should allow him to hold onto the lead-back role a little longer, even if it's just on a week-by-week basis. He should maintain his 65 percent snap share while Henderson accounts for 30 to 35 percent of the offensive snaps. The rookie should continue to be stashed on fantasy benches heading into Week 3 against the Steelers. Meanwhile, Stevenson remains a solid RB2 option for the time being.
