Neck injury
Big loss: Jets are placing WR Quincy Enunwa on injured reserve with a neck injury, per source. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
Nerdy Football Analysis: Ooof. As if the Jets could get any worse, they lose what might be their best receiver and a player they were counting on to be in the starting lineup Week 1. For now, Robby Anderson is the only recognizable name(?) in the receiving group. As much as they might not want to, the Jets are likely to add a free agent receiver shortly.
One-year deal
Bills are giving WR Anquan Boldin a one-year, $2.75 million deal, that includes $1.25 million in incentives, per source. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
Nerdy Football Analysis: The Bills needed an other veteran receiving option and they found their man. Boldin will likely start opposite Sammy Watkins and should give the offense a stable presence. His signing dings the fantasy value of rookie WR Zay Jones but won’t drain any targets from Watkins. Buffalo remains a run-first offense so Boldin should be viewed as a TD-dependent WR4.
Mild AC sprain
It’s a mild AC sprain for Donte Moncrief. Day-to-day with that shoulder injury. Fell on it during one-on-one drills yesterday. (Kevin Bowen on Twitter)
Nerdy Football Analysis: The Colts are characterizing the injury as minor. Moncrief is likely to miss a couple practices but there’s reason for fantasy owners to panic at this time.
Surgery required, out indefinitely
Texans’ WR Will Fuller broke his collarbone today during practice, sources tell @sarahbarshop and me. Out indefinitely. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
Nerdy Football Analysis: It’s tough to nail down a return date for Fuller but this injury could keep him out 2-3 months and will put him off the fantasy radar for the near future. Jaelen Strong will have an opportunity to jump into the No.2 wide receiver spot in camp with Braxton Miller holding down duties in the slot.
Carted off
The latest on the scary situation for #Giants WR Sterling Shepard, who has an ankle injury. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)
Nerdy Football Analysis: It’s always an ominous sign when a player gets carted off the field. Reports say trainers were looking at Shepard’s ankle. The team is expected to update his condition after practice.
