Ravens Hope Lamar Jackson Can Return After Week 7 Bye

Sunday, October 12, 10:05 AM

The Baltimore Ravens hope that quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring) can return following next week's bye, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The injury is reportedly not long-term, and Jackson has been in the team's facilities rehabbing. While a Week 8 return has certainly not been confirmed, the team views that as a reasonable target as the star quarterback continues to make progress with his recovery. In the meantime, Cooper Rush will make one more start in Week 6. Baltimore's offense has looked very underwhelming under Rush, so getting Jackson back would be good news all around. He's a fantasy QB1 whenever he's healthy.

49ers QB Brock Purdy Could Return In Week 7

Sunday, October 12, 7:22 AM

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) could return in Week 7, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Already ruled out for Week 6, Purdy will have missed four of six games going into next week. Mac Jones (oblique) is expected to play on Sunday, which should provide stability for a 49ers team that ranks second in the league in passing yards. The irony is that fantasy managers who took Purdy because of his reliability have gotten anything but, as injury issues have made his availability a weekly guessing game. If Purdy is finally ready to return full-time next week, he should once again deserve lineup consideration, especially in two-quarterback formats.
