Jaylin Noel News
Friday, September 11, 6:17 PM
Houston Texans wide receiver Jaylin Noel (hamstring/finger) is not on the injury report headed into his team's Week 1 matchup with the Buffalo Bills. The third-round pick played all 17 regular-season games as a rookie, totaling 26 catches for 292 yards and two touchdowns. Noel could be more involved this year after Jayden Higgins (knee) was lost for the season, but he has yet to lock in a role and remains a very high-risk play for Week 1. Even with Kayshon Boutte joining the mix on the outside, Noel could still be the primary option in the slot. Noel is RotoBaller's No. 83 WR for Week 1, so while he is worth a stash in dynasty or deep leagues due to his potential, he isn't a starter in hardly any formats against the Bills.

Ja'Kobi Lane News
Monday, September 14, 12:05 PM
The Baltimore Sun's Sam Cohn says that Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane (wrist) might be out a bit longer since he is getting second and third opinions on his fractured wrist this week. Lane's timetable for a return is unclear right now, but fantasy managers who have him rostered in deeper leagues should be expecting a multi-week absence at the very least. It is unfortunate timing for the 22-year-old from USC, who had opened his first NFL season as Baltimore's WR2 behind Zay Flowers (hamstring) after a strong training camp and preseason. In his NFL debut in the Week 1 season-opening win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, the third-rounder caught just one of his three targets for 11 yards before fracturing his wrist. With Flowers up in the air to play in Week 2 versus the New Orleans Saints, veteran Rashod Bateman and rookie Elijah Sarratt, who was a healthy inactive in Week 1, could be in line for much bigger roles in the Ravens' passing attack. Lane is currently rostered in 18% of Yahoo leagues.
