Episode notes
Use Late-Week Hamstring Practice Status
- If a player remains a full non-participant late in the week with a hamstring, increase concern and consider benching them.
- Use Friday practice status as a stronger indicator of availability for Sunday.
Quarterback Return Reorders Values Quickly
- Lamar Jackson returning instantly upgrades Derrick Henry and the pass-game receivers' fantasy value.
- Roster moves and trades should reflect the immediate spike in expected production once a franchise QB returns.
Start George Kittle But Expect Variance
- If Brock Purdy is out, George Kittle remains a start but apply cautious expectations with Mac Jones at quarterback.
- Prefer tight ends with consistent target share if you need lower-variance weekly production.
