Falcons "Feeling Good" About Darnell Mooney Playing Sunday Night

Friday, October 17, 8:18 PM

Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said that he's "feeling good" about wide receiver Darnell Mooney's (hamstring) chances of playing on Sunday Night Football in Week 7 against the San Francisco 49ers, according to D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Mooney has not played since injuring his hamstring in Week 4, but it seems there's a good chance he could make it back this weekend despite not practicing on Friday. The 27-year-old wideout was limited in practice on both Wednesday and Thursday and is officially listed as questionable to return. Mooney appears to be on the right side of questionable, but with Atlanta's game coming on Sunday night, we wouldn't recommend risking it with him in your starting lineup this weekend. The Falcons' offense looked much better in the Monday night win over the Buffalo Bills, but Mooney has a mere seven catches on 16 targets for 79 yards and no scores in his three games this year.

Marvin Harrison Jr. has High-End WR3 Value Against Packers

Saturday, October 18, 11:15 AM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. cleared the NFL's concussion protocol just in time to practice Friday and be removed from the injury report. He was only able to play in 23% of the team's snaps in Week 6, which led to just the two targets, two catches, and 32 yards. Week 7 carries uncertainty yet again as Kyler Murray (foot) remains questionable, with Jacoby Brissett waiting for the call to go under center. Harrison and Murray still haven't fully clicked, so having Brissett under center may not necessarily be a bad thing. The Green Bay Packers have given up at least one receiving touchdown in all but one of their games, so Harrison could find some room to break free, but they're around the middle of the league in terms of defending the pass. Harrison is a solid flex play, but his ceiling is a bit limited right now.
