Ty Johnson News
Wednesday, August 19, 7:05 PM
Buffalo Bills running back Ty Johnson (knee) is still not practicing after an apparent lower-body injury sustained during a scrimmage on August 10th. Johnson limped off after falling on a route and left with his arm wrapped around a trainer. The Bills have been quiet about Johnson's status, with head coach Joe Brady saying they would know an answer a week after the injury. If Johnson ends up missing time during the season, starter James Cook could see more receiving work. There have been rumors that Cook will have a bigger role in the passing game, and Johnson's injury could open the door for those wishes to come true. Fantasy managers should evaluate Johnson's status heading into the beginning of the season, as this could have direct implications for Cook's role.

Najee Harris News
Friday, August 21, 8:17 AM
New York Giants running back Najee Harris is getting a real chance to work his way into an already crowded backfield. Jordan Raanan reports that Harris was brought in with the expectation that he'll be a significant contributor, and the veteran got three carries during Thursday's joint practice with Miami after only three days with the team. Harris is still getting back up to speed after tearing his Achilles last season with the Chargers, but his track record is easy to understand. He rushed for more than 1,000 yards in each of his four seasons with Pittsburgh. Cam Skattebo remains the top option and has been first up most days in camp, while Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Devin Singletary are still firmly in the mix. So there isn't a clean fantasy role here yet. Harris wasn't signed to sit at the bottom of the depth chart, though. If he keeps showing he can handle live work, he could force his way into a meaningful share of the carries as the season moves along.
