Tyreek Hill News
Wednesday, October 7, 6:30 AM
Free-agent wide receiver Tyreek Hill remains under NFL review as a civil case tied to his divorce moves forward in Florida. Hill's ex-wife, Lakeeta Vaccaro, testified Tuesday that he physically abused her during their marriage, and her complaint alleges eight separate incidents. Hill has denied the allegations and does not face criminal charges. Court TV reported that Vaccaro testified about one incident in which Hill grabbed at her jewelry, pushed her onto a bed, and put his hands around her neck. The NFL's Personal Conduct Policy review remains active, which could still affect Hill's availability if the league ultimately determines that a violation occurred. His agent has also been negotiating with teams as Hill works toward an NFL return, with Kansas City among those that have shown interest. RotoBaller currently recommends Hill as a stash in leagues with 14 or more teams while both his playing status and the league review remain unresolved.

DeVonta Smith News
Wednesday, October 7, 11:06 AM
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (hamstring) will not practice again on Wednesday due to a hamstring injury, according to Brooks Kubena of The Athletic. Smith left the Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears with a hamstring injury, and he did not practice all of last week before being inactive in Sunday's loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The 27-year-old is not off to a good start this week and could miss a second straight game when the Eagles travel to London to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars. Fantasy managers should consider him very questionable to play this weekend, but he still has two more days to return to the practice field on Thursday and Friday. Now the Eagles' WR1, Smith has 19 catches on 27 targets for 235 yards and a touchdown in three games to begin his sixth year in the league, and he remains a must-start WR1 in fantasy when he is active. If Smith misses another game this weekend, Dontayvion Wicks and rookie Makai Lemon will be intriguing flex plays. Tight end Dallas Goedert (knee) could also have high target volume if he makes his return against Jacksonville.
