Michael Pittman Jr. News
Tuesday, November 10, 4:54 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (foot) is hopeful to get back on the field for the Week 10 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Pittman has been out since October 10 due to a foot injury. He has resumed running and is hopeful to play for the first time since Week 4 on Sunday. Through three games, Pittman has recorded seven receptions for 89 yards and zero touchdowns. He figures to be significantly involved in the passing attack once he gets back on the field. It's unclear if he'll return this week, but it sounds like Pittman is getting closer to a return. Fantasy managers in need of help at wideout and are willing to be patient should consider adding Pittman this week.

Luther Burden III News
Sunday, November 8, 7:14 PM
Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III (concussion) was diagnosed with a concussion following Sunday's Week 9 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, head coach Ben Johnson told Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com. Burden exited after taking a scary head-to-head hit late in the fourth quarter of the Bears' victory. He immediately collapsed to the ground after the hit and required medical assistance. The 22-year-old finished Week 9 with nine targets, seven catches, 97 yards, and one touchdown. If there's any good news here, it's that the Bears have a Week 10 bye, so Burden will get extra time to recover. Clearing concussion protocol in one week is tricky, but Burden will have 14 days for his symptoms to improve before the Bears play again. In the event that his recovery takes longer than expected and he has to miss Week 11 as well, then Kalif Raymond and Zavion Thomas would handle a significant increase in offensive snaps.
