Kirk Cousins (Achilles) provided an update on his health following his Week 1 return during an appearance on the Rich Eisen Show Wednesday morning. Cousins expressed satisfaction with his ankle and Achilles, saying, "I felt good honestly. I was really pleased with how my ankle felt, not just the Achilles, but my ankle felt really good." Despite this positive report, Cousins' performance was underwhelming after his return from an Achilles tear. His play was marred by questionable interceptions, including one thrown into double coverage. Additionally, Cousins played mainly from the pistol formation and only went under center twice, limiting his opportunities for play-action, which he typically relies on for success. With the Philadelphia Eagles coming up on Monday night, Cousins remains a risky fantasy option until he demonstrates full recovery and improved performance.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Jameis Winston got the start in his team's 37-33 preseason loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday. Winston played on the Browns' first two offensive drives, completing six of his nine passes for 63 yards while adding a six-yard run before taking a seat for the remainder of the evening. Winston will break camp as Cleveland's No. 2 quarterback, an important role for the Browns with questions still surrounding the health of Deshaun Watson's shoulder. While Winston doesn't need to be drafted in redraft leagues, he should at least be rostered in all dynasty superflex formats. With the preseason games concluded, the Browns will now gear up to face the Dallas Cowboys in Week 1.
