Jacob Cowing Ruled Out Against Packers

Friday, November 22, 6:32 PM

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver/kick returner Jacob Cowing (concussion) was unable to clear the league's concussion protocol and has been ruled out for Week 12 versus the Green Bay Packers. Cowing suffered his concussion in last Sunday's loss to the division-rival Seattle Seahawks and will now be hoping to clear the concussion protocol next week in order to face the Buffalo Bills in Week 13. Unexpectedly, the 23-year-old has mostly factored in on special teams (returning punts) in his first year in the NFL, despite Brandon Aiyuk (knee) being lost for the season. In nine games in 2024, the Arizona product only has two receptions on three targets for 50 yards. With Cowing out of action this Sunday at Lambeau Field, Ronnie Bell will most likely serve as the team's punt returner.

Devaughn Vele Posts 66 Yards In Win Over Falcons

Monday, November 18, 10:12 AM

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Devaughn Vele quietly had a strong performance in the 38-6 blowout win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday in Week 11, although he wasn't on the receiving end of one of rookie quarterback Bo Nix's career-high four touchdown passes. Vele finished with four receptions on five targets for 66 receiving yards. Both his targets and yards were second on the team behind Courtland Sutton. The 26-year-old seventh-rounder out of Utah has had some impressive moments in his first NFL season, and while his 66 yards were his second-highest yardage total of the year, he's also failed to reach 40 yards in five of his seven games. Vele will continue to develop alongside Nix but can't realistically be trusted in starting fantasy lineups as anything more than a boom/bust WR5/flex in deeper leagues.
