De'Zhaun Stribling Out Around 10 Weeks After Ankle Surgery

Wednesday, September 16, 11:54 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver De'Zhaun Stribling (ankle) underwent surgery Wednesday and is expected to miss around 10 weeks, according to Cam Inman. Head coach Kyle Shanahan said the 49ers are still hoping Stribling can make it back before the season ends. The rookie had already been placed on injured reserve after suffering a deltoid sprain in the season-opening win over the Rams, but the original outlook was considerably shorter before surgery became necessary. Stribling played 21 offensive snaps in his NFL debut and did not draw a target before leaving. San Francisco used the 33rd overall pick on him in April, so the long-term interest hasn't gone anywhere, but most redraft managers don't need to wait through a 10-week absence. He remains an easy hold in dynasty leagues while the 49ers hope to get him back late in the season.

Ja'Kobi Lane News

Ja'Kobi Lane has Stash Appeal Following Return

Saturday, October 17, 5:53 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane (wrist) was activated off the Injured Reserve ahead of the Week 6 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. Lane has been sidelined since fracturing his wrist during the season opener. It's unclear what kind of role he's going to have during his first week back. Once he's back to full speed, Lane could find himself in a decent role as the WR2 of this offense. The rookie wideout looked great during camp, so we'll see what he can do now. Fantasy managers looking for help at the wide receiver spot should consider stashing Lane. He probably won't be a great option for this weekend, but he should be able to help fantasy managers down the road.
