Tory Horton to Miss a Period of Time

Friday, August 21, 5:22 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton (undisclosed) is going to be sidelined for a period of time, according to Field Gulls. Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Horton is dealing with an undisclosed ailing issue, but he didn't want to go into detail. There is speculation that it's a setback from his shin injury from last season, but nothing has been confirmed. The expectation is that Horton will be healthy for Week 1, but there isn't a timetable for his return yet. Horton is more of a dynasty stash and isn't someone that needs to be rostered in 12-team redrafts to begin the season.

Germie Bernard Stands Out in Preseason Victory

Thursday, August 13, 7:32 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Germie Bernard hauled in four of five targets for 51 receiving yards in a 28-9 preseason win over the Green Bay Packers. Bernard, a second-round pick in this year's NFL Draft, saw time with the first-team offense and immediately looked the part. He caught quarterback Mason Rudolph's first pass attempt and later impressed with a 25-yard catch-and-run that saw him shed multiple defenders. Bernard nearly scored a touchdown early in the second quarter but couldn't get his second foot in bounds despite a valiant effort. The Alabama product is unlikely to be drafted in many fantasy formats this fall, but he is a name to monitor as the season progresses given the uncertainty surrounding the Steelers' wide receiver room behind DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman Jr. He'll get his next preseason action against the New York Jets next Friday.
