KC Concepcion Jr. News
Saturday, September 12, 9:52 AM
Cleveland Browns wide receiver KC Concepcion has a little more Week 1 appeal than the usual rookie making his NFL debut. Concepcion is already listed as a starter, and the Browns have spent much of the summer finding ways to get the ball in his hands. He only played once in the preseason, catching three passes for 27 yards while adding a 14-yard rushing touchdown and a 31-yard punt return. Head coach Todd Monken said Friday that Concepcion will handle all of Cleveland's punt returns against Jacksonville and made it clear the rookie has earned the coaching staff's trust. Cleveland took Concepcion 24th overall after he caught 61 passes for 919 yards and nine touchdowns at Texas A&M last season. There is still risk with Deshaun Watson under center and Jerry Jeudy, Denzel Boston and Harold Fannin Jr. also competing for touches. RotoBaller has Concepcion at WR61 for Week 1. He is not a must-start yet, but managers in deeper leagues can use him as an upside WR4 or flex.

De'Zhaun Stribling News
Sunday, September 13, 6:04 AM
San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver De'Zhaun Stribling (ankle) has been diagnosed with a deltoid sprain in his ankle and will miss at least one month, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. There are currently no plans for him to undergo surgery, but the team is reportedly exploring all options. The Ole Miss product made his NFL debut on Thursday night, but the outing was cut short due to two trips to the sideline for an ankle issue. After he exited the second time, he did not return, finishing the game with zero targets on offense. This is crushing news for the rookie and his fantasy managers, especially after there was plenty of speculation that Stribling could be a steady WR3/flex option in his role alongside Mike Evans. Instead, he'll be sidelined through mid-October at the earliest, making him a candidate for injured reserve. With Christian Kirk (calf) already on IR, Deebo Samuel Sr. is solidified as the 49ers' No. 2 receiver while Demarcus Robinson will be elevated to the No. 3 spot.
