Malik Heath a Healthy Scratch After Being Left Behind

Sunday, November 16, 11:53 AM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Malik Heath (coach's decision) did not travel with the team to New Jersey for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the New York Giants. He is officially inactive as a healthy scratch. We don't know the details behind Heath's absence, but typically, decisions like these are made for disciplinary reasons. However, it's rare to see a coaching staff leave a player on the 53-man roster off the flight for non-injury reasons. Nevertheless, Heath will be inactive for the first time this season. He has caught all six of his targets for 86 yards this season. His void will be filled by Savion Williams, who should fill a depth role behind Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, Christian Watson, and Matthew Golden.

Ryan Flournoy Faces a Hard Path to Fantasy Relevance Despite Rookie Season Flashes

Sunday, April 12, 5:39 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Ryan Flournoy had some fantasy-relevant moments as a sixth-round rookie out of Southeast Missouri State, namely a six-catch, 114-yard outing in his first career start, filling in for the injured CeeDee Lamb. Unfortunately for Flournoy, when the Cowboys are at full health, the path to consistent fantasy contribution is obstructed from all sides. George Pickens was one of the biggest breakouts of 2025, and he appears slated to return for at least one more year on the franchise tag. Jake Ferguson was one of the most targeted tight ends in the league, and Lamb topped 1,000 receiving yards for the fifth straight year, despite missing three games. Impressively, Flournoy did lead the Cowboys in targets and receptions in a wild Week 14 loss to the Lions that saw him finish the game with 115 yards and a score in a week where Dallas had its full complement of pass catchers. Such flashes should not be unexpected from the big-bodied receiver in year two, but until the depth chart ahead of him thins out, Flournoy will be hard to trust with any sort of reliability outside of best ball formats.
