Jaylin Lane Has Serious Ankle Injury

Sunday, October 4, 9:46 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver and returner Jaylin Lane is dealing with a serious ankle injury, according to head coach Dan Quinn, as reported by JP Finlay of NBC4 Sports Washington. Lane was injured on a kickoff return early in the third quarter of a Week 4 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in London. He did not appear to be able to put any pressure on his left leg and had to be carted off of the field. Lane was quickly ruled out of the game and did not return. Lane did not record any receptions and had three kickoff returns for 80 yards (26.7 yards per return) against the Colts. He has tallied two receptions for 25 yards (12.5 yards per attempt) in 2026.

Dohnte Meyers Could Build on Expanded Role Against Jaguars

Saturday, October 3, 9:03 AM

Cincinnati Bengals rookie wide receiver Dohnte Meyers hauled in three of five targets for 29 yards in the 30-27 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 3. While many haven't heard of Meyers, the undrafted free agent from the 2023 draft played for the Saskatchewan Roughriders over the past three seasons and made Cincinnati's 53-man roster after a stellar preseason. With Andrei Iosivas (thumb) on injured reserve, Meyers played 55% of snaps and ran 60% of routes in the Week 3 loss, ranking third among receivers behind Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Meyers faces a Jacksonville Jaguars defense that has allowed the ninth most yards to wide receivers this season. While Meyers is a fun story given his CFL career, he is not fantasy-relevant behind Chase and Higgins in the pecking order.
